I figure you blog readers might like to know, beyond its blizzard-y content, I based the composition loosely around one of my very favourite paintings -- The Reply of the Zaporozhian Cossacks by Ilya Repin.
There are few works of art that I think get across such a great sense of story. Repin was a master of this. I learned a lot about story with this piece -- makes you wish the man were still alive so we could all go ask him :)
