The Creative Process of The Full Cold Moon

The creative process of The Full Cold Moon
Here you can get a peek into the creative process of The Full Cold Moon.
How it started off with the basic composition with bare trees and a full moon. How I added snow and then a bird that got too detailed to fit in with the rest of the image. How I gave the bird flat colours so it would fit in with its surroundings, although I still miss the bird in all its glory!

Soooo very sweet, Kate! The bird is as enchanting as the moon… Happy Day :o)
Thanks for sharing your process, it’s stunning! I imagine you can still find a use for the bird with all its shadings and colors..lovely!
Frosty silence broken by a redbreast’s song a little eerie transparency that takes you into the winter world
Kate, this is so sweet and chic. I love the moon too!
This is my very first visit to your blog (lovely spot!) and I thought your creative process was the finished art at first, with the enlarged bird at the center of it all, sitting in his own little pocket of moon. Wonderful, delicate piece :)
thanks for letting us into your mind. That image is beautiful and whimsical. I like that detailed little birdy, too. You’ll have to find a new design to showcase him!
Kate, love the Robin Red Breast and the colours… very frosty, but warm at the same time. :-) The Robin red breast was the first picture i got for Dec 1st in my advent calendar… i cant wait for snow. :-)
i love the bird in all her glory!
love this scene too. :)
now i just wish we had some snow.
