There is a very particular shade of blue that is created by shadows left when sunlight reflects off snow. Luminous and cold, tinged with white light, it catches in drifts and at the base of trees.
I like a painter with a landscape obsession. I feel at home with a Cezanne, returning over and over to the edge of Mont Sainte-Victoire as he tries to capture the ever-changing colour of its sloping sides. Or an Etel Adan, who did the same to Mount Tamalpais, rendering its hues in both paint and words.
