A good day painting is a day with challenges and at least some accomplishments. Sometimes I just have craving to paint a white subject like an Egret or Polar Bear. It gives me an opportunity to use a whole different range of colors. I'm guessing many would think that a white fox in white snow would be easy. Snow is translucent and white pigment is as opaque as anything on your palette. In this painting I tried to convey the texture in the fur in contrast with the light and airy snow.
