On friday the 7th december I packed all my painting utensils to go and paint a bison herd I heard of, which was located in the Jura mountains.<\/p>\n

After a journey with bus, train, cablecar and final stretch with a car I arrived at the “Ferme des Bison”. The snow was knee deep and the farmer told me that more snow was coming….anyway I fetched my backpag and camping chair and headed towards the bison pasture.<\/p>\n

Because of the wind the lighting situation changed quite quickly every few minutes.<\/p>\n

During a windy and foggy section of the day the herd came to the feeding area and a young cow came pretty close to the fence.<\/p>\n

I was fascinated by all the colours she had in the fur even with the flat light. There where shades of light ocker over black to white and blue.<\/p>\n

The fur around the nostrils was coated thickly with snow and ice. The rest of the herd stayed in the fog and where just big scruffy locking shadows.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As soon as the wind picked up the sun came out and the herd moved into the cover of the trees. Then I realised that my paint was starting to freeze up<\/p>\n

so I sketched as quickly as possible the landscape in sunlight it was particularly difficult to get the colour of the snow with the sunlight on right.<\/p>\n

I was not even finished with painting when my acrylic was just clumps of ice, so wandered past surprised looking crosscountry skiers back to the car.<\/p>\n
