Rendered in a restrained yet expressive palette of muted grays, soft whites, and silvery blues, this work conveys the subtle beauty and introspective mood of a snow-covered landscape. A gentle stream winds its way through the scene, bordered by bare trees and lightly dusted slopes, while distant evergreens and a modest farmhouse anchor the composition with a sense of place and timelessness.
Executed in a naturalistic, almost impressionistic watercolor style, McFarren’s brushwork is fluid yet precise. The soft gradients in the sky and snow suggest movement in the air and shifting light, while darker ink-like outlines in trees and streambanks lend a slightly graphic quality. The artist skillfully balances delicate transparency with more defined structure, a hallmark of traditional watercolor landscape techniques.
The painting is signed in the lower right and presented in a simple rectangular frame with a classic gold finish. The frame's soft metallic hue subtly enhances the painting's cool tones without overwhelming the image. A neutral double matting in off-white and soft olive helps draw the eye into the depth of the wintry scene.
