This is an original Mixed Media artwork created by Marlene Kallstrom-Barritt.
The image shows a stylized mountain landscape with a soft, hand-drawn quality, almost like an ink-and-watercolor illustration. In the center, a rugged peak rises prominently, its slopes streaked with patches of snow that cling to the ridges and spill down the darker rock faces. The mountains around it form a layered range, creating a sense of depth and distance as they recede into the background.
The palette is muted and cool, dominated by grays, whites, and pale blue tones, which give the scene a calm, wintry atmosphere. The sky above is light and hazy, with a few faint circular marks that suggest falling snow or drifting mist. At the bottom of the image, a strip of water stretches across the foreground, reflecting the subdued colors of the scene and adding a quiet stillness to the composition.
Overall, the image feels serene and remote, capturing the stark beauty of a cold mountain environment with a delicate, almost dreamlike aesthetic.
This work is done on watercolour paper that is then affixed to a birch panel and coated in a protective wax layer.
