Returning back to the imagery that showed personal impact of the blizzard through people walking within the storm, I found this image to be the most dramatic and interesting of everything that I had viewed relating to the catastrophe. I decided upon using the image of people walking in the blizzard as the content of my artwork. I had earlier drawn and painted a version of this work and decided to return to it and try to better it. I had identified in earlier images that the colours were mostly black and white. Coincidentally, this complimented lyrics in the Lighthouse Family song “High” once again:
“Though it’s darker than December
What’s ahead is a different colour”
I then changed the hue and saturation of the image, then cropped the portion of the image to be used.
