During this painting session, I was listening to a cd of poems being read by British actors. The Lady of Shalott was one of the poems and it happens to be one of my favorites. It was a favorite theme of the Pre-Raphaelite artists.
Though the poem itself has nothing to do with winter and this painting has nothing to do with Camelot, I felt the painting had a touch of the same sadness as in the poem.
