Description I did this as part of a series of season watercolors for my parents for Christmas because my mom wanted 4 watercolors for the kitchen. : D

This is just so calm and peaceful yet magical at the same time.

I've always loved winter but never been lucky enough to personally meet the snow, sadly.

This, however, makes me feel like I'm in the middle of a winter dream when I watch it.

It's pure and oh-so-beautiful...

Did you use crayon/wax to keep the white, or something else? It's beautiful!

actually, some of it is just the paper- like the parts of the trees that I didn't paint. for the falling snow, though, I used white acrylic paint. : D thank you! <3

yeah, it can be effective. : D though I do want to get wax like you said, because someone suggested melting a special wax to keep the paper nice and white in places where it's hard not to paint. I've used masking fluid before too but that was years ago... I might try it again.
