Joni Mitchell’s painting, “40 Below 0,” 1995.

“We were driving on what might be considered the bleakest stretch of road, on the bleakest time of year,”—“When I got out, crystals formed all over the inside of the windshield.

“There were the prairies, the stretch of the wind, the movement of the clouds, the skies, all lilac-y and yellow. The windbreak was burgundy, the snow was pink with the sun going down. It was such a rush of color. To be so cold it could kill you in 15 minutes, and yet to look so warm. I felt like a salmon smelling its native stream.”
