When you don’t already know, yearly we do our Winter Wonderland espresso, the artwork should embrace three issues: the phrase Winter Wonderland, a snowflake or snow, and a tree. It’s been enjoyable to see the numerous artistic iterations that artists have give you beneath this design temporary. This 12 months, the alpenglow colours of the winter scene remind us of winter’s distinctive magnificence.
The espresso and artwork are story sufficient, however this artwork can also be a tribute to the occasion that occurred on January 7, 2020, at Silver Mountain Ski Resort. The inbound avalanche on Wardner Peak that day took the lives of three skiers. 4 skiers survived, and DOMA Co-owner Rebecca was one in every of them. Meg, a massive backcountry skier herself, modeled the mountain in her artwork after Wardner Peak. Then she positioned a raven within the Winter Wonderland tree. A raven is a logo of souls misplaced within the mountains; it’s stated if you see a raven within the mountain, these souls are trying over you. It’s an indication of fine luck and remembrance.
We hope our Winter Wonderland espresso conjures up gratitude and kindness this 12 months. Have a happy, wholesome, and secure vacation season.
