More about snow.

Painting snow is like painting a rainbow.   It's very subtle but the hues are all over the color wheel.  In this painting the snow is blue, blue purple, red purple, yellow, some soft streaks of orange, and a little very dark green for shadows.  It's very instructive to paint snow.  Although I'm painting from my iPad that is a photo I took, I make a point to observe snow in sun and shadow as I travel to and from our gallery.
