Charlie, a pastel painting by Wendy Peterson featured in the 2023 Members’ Exhibition at White Bear Center for the Arts, reminds me of what I love about Minnesota winters. You can practically feel the frigid air coming through the open window, while the viewer is safe and warm, cuddled in a blanket with the cat presumably purring away. The window offers an escape for Charlie, but we know he will stay put in the comfort of his home.
