Snow painting



I have been busy during January working on my snow painting. It is a big canvas and I am using oil paints. I was painting this subject for the class I run once a week and the tutorial was about getting your tonal values right. Often when painting trees against a sky it can be tricky to get the tonal values right. I very much enjoyed painting this scene and it took me a long time which is a good thing!

I am now working on a river scene which is certainly turning into an epic! and it is still not near completion. But what is the rush! there isn't one. Painting is to be enjoyed!

I hope you are painting too and are not too snowed up or suffering from the storms!

Best wishes
