I painted this outdoors on location at the base of Fox Glacier in New Zealand.

As it’s winter the sun is low in the sky which cast a shadow over the valley floor. I loved the contrast between the valley in shadow and the mountains in full sun.

Painting outdoors is known as plein air painting, a French term for painting outdoors.
