This rather simple composition if of a family enjoying an offering of winter-getting the slopes with the toboggan and heading downhill. Regardless how hard dad pushes the speed is not enough. The bright colors of the scarfs, hats and mittens as well as the darker figures in relation to the snow and trees draw attention to our joyful trio. Have done a similar painting of the scene-will post someday, but would like to change the direction of the sun to have it come from the viewer's left shoulder. The current placement of the sun and resultant shadow serve to further draw the eye of the viewer into the canvas and our happy sledders.
