This Winter Help Came

This was entered in the "Winter is Magic" Contest and it was nominated in Third Place.

I chose this concept to show how winter is magic. I wanted something more realistic, because it did happen. We all choose to see magic differently and in this piece the boy being helped by the light reflecting on the broken snow globe is the perspective I chose. There is a lot of symbolism, starting with the dust particles falling, even between the broken wall which you're looking through is also in a shape of a star.
