Description
Some of you might know that this is really the first winter I have spent somewhere where it happens to snow in the winter since I was a very little girl. I can't seem to get enough of the beauty of trees and buildings covered in snow. I am also enjoying these beautiful little red cardinal birds that come out and play in the fresh snow, and make such a beautiful contrast to the snow itself. I decided that they really needed a queen, so I created one for them. Photo reference for Sabine comes from `Elandria and photos used to create the chair, birds, and snowy landscape are from clipart.com .Related content

I simply just adore the name. Nothing too deep.

Someone adoring "my" name?
A strange question: how you say that name? with an e at the ending or without? I always was confused by my english-teacher doing it sometimes so and sometimes other ^^

I say it without, but I have heard it pronounced both ways. You have a beautiful name. It rolls off the tongue and carries with it thoughts of beauty and elegance. I've always been an oddball that was fascinated with the sounds of different words and names.

Thank you
I never knew anyone who'd like my name, especially not that much.
Oh yes me too, I so love the sounding of "Kathy" for example ^^

Thank you! This winter was my first one spent somewhere it actually snowed, so I went nuts with snow paintings a couple of months ago. I especially loved the little cardinals, which I had never seen before.

Oh how wonderful! I'm glad you guys like this so much! I also used you to create Sabine's cousin, Elora, which can be seen here. [link] Kind of the same concept as this one, only with blues instead of reds.

This is beautiful. The red on the white is such a nice contrast. I live in a part of Texas where we almost never get snow, but we have lots of cardinals and they are beautiful anywhere. I can imagine, especially with the way you depicted it, that they are really beautiful contrasted against the white snow.
You have done a magnificent job on this. The details are wonderful.

Thank you so much! I wasn't sure about this theme or how it would come out, but now I'm glad I did it. Now I'll always have something to remember my first snowy winter by.

The winter is a whirlwind of enchantment and magic; I'm so glad that at last since your childhood you can at last become part of that traditional sense of its snowy bewitchment. It shows that you've found inner expression from its snow flakes presence; especially the inneraction with the cardnials. I love how you've seen all the glory of winter and summerized it into this bewildering piece. Magnificant my friend!

OMG. At first, I thought this was a picture!! The red and white contrast is wonderful, and you've found a nice pose, as usual. The cardinals add some style and something to focus on. Wonderful work, and as usual you've left me wanting more.

Thank you very much! This is kind of one of those pieces I created for personal reasons, rather than to tell a story or making a point, and I never know if people will like those as much. I'm very glad you like this!
