13th of January. The sky was overcast throughout the day. I went to the river bank to sketch. At one moment, as if for me, the clouds parted, forming a gap in the middle from the already setting sun. A few more moments and snow began to fall from this gap - huge, heavy flakes, like in a movie. The cloud quickly disappeared and soon its grayness was replaced by yellow-pink shades of the evening sky. I hastened to finish the work - no longer a sketch, but a whole picture. I think this day is truly special.
