Description In celebration of 1000 watchers!

My OC Himeko, in her winter outfit. ~
She is a mail carrier from one of my stories. She is a cheerful girl who loves to explore places with pretty scenery.

I wanted to draw something wintery without the common holiday theme.

In my art class, we're watching art history introduction presentations... Impressionism really stood out for me for some reason. I love Monet's works, especially his colour usage. Inspired by one of his studies of the "Waterloo Bridge".

Title from "Yuki no Eki", from 5cm Per Second
