Daylight has always inspired me to capture its colors and particular atmosphere, be it early in the morning or later in the evening, especially when contrasts are enhanced by snow and the skeletons of the trees.
Here is a beautiful example of it in this painting, made after a photo taken late in the afternoon at Beaubien park in Rosemont-La-Petite-Patrie neighbourhood in Montréal, after a bright winter day :)
