I found a photo of Charles Burchfield working in and experiencing the snow. No gloves, no scarf, no ear muffs; he seems oblivious to the cold. Often when I’ve worked in the cold, I’m not cold, especially when cutting and piling firewood, but painting? It is Burchfield so of course he is working up a sweat. He painted masterpieces every season, but there is something about his winter ones that often strike me as the best. I have no idea of the date of this photo or who the photographer is. If anyone does, please let me know.
