@QVCisFun ,  that's a terrific illustration!  Love the movement and dynamism of the loggers. 

@jubilant ,  I have one winter scene that I do keep up all year round.  It was in our son's room growing up, now the spare room.   "Learning to Skate" by Canadian primitive artitst, Alberto de Castro:

He's another one who celebrates winter, like in "Joy of Working"--

I like your question about seasonal art.  I have a glowing art print in the dining room, which depicts a tight grove of trees in full autumn color.  Enjoy it all year round.

Do you have any winter scenes out?

I love these pictures !!!!  Winter and Autumn scenes are my favorites and this very talented painter captures the beauty of winter, especially the village and winter morning, just beautiful.  The Birch Woods and Katherine, Golden Autumn, so pretty!  Thanks for sharing this, I admire and love Gagnon's works and seeing it all for the first time!!!!

@Oznell  No, I don't have any out but have seen a couple I would like to have. I love those paintings you have! I guess I just thought to myself...Why not? We have Spring, Summer, and Fall paintings out all year.  Why not winter! Ha! It only took me 75 years to even consider it!

@Oznell  , really like these two prints.  They are sweet, everybody is happily engaged in activities.

I love winter scenes. These are all so great.

Just curious....does anyone leave their winter scenes up year around?

@jubilant  ,  I love winter snow scenes.  I have a round holiday cookie tin lid (I put a magnet on the back of it) that I keep on the front of the refrigerator all year.  It is about five inches in diameter.  The scene is of an overcast snowy winter farm landscape.

@Oznell 

Beautiful work!

Thank you for sharing!

@QVCisFun ,  I'm pretty sure the activity in the last one, "Joy of Working",  is a family and their friends maple-sugaring in the woods.  That's what it looks like to me.  I've been trying, but it's hard to get info on it-- some of the gallery stuff is behind a sort of a paywall that blurs stuff out.  

The happy teamwork and joy that you reference in these 'naive' works is exactly what appeals to me too!  So much of de Castro's winter scenes are like that--  sledding, skating, making snow angels...

I have a Thomas Kincaid. Colonial house and lights with a Snowman. It is a favorite. Oh and of course lots of snow.
