I went down to the lake on New Year's Day. The temperature was forecast to be in the 50s, so I was wearing only a light jacket. I was surprised to see the partly frozen lake, but it was beautiful! I was freezing, my paint was freezing, but I pulled out my painting knife and applied the semi-frozen white paint like icing on a cake! I was so cold, but I did not stop until it was finished! The painting sold immediately.
