Paint the magic of a snow scene.

You may think you need to paint everything you see, but in watercolor, the snow is the white of the paper surface.

Learn techniques that can be easily applied to any snow scene or other landscape photos, and instead of grass, leave the areas white and turn it into snow. Use your imagination and wiggle your wrist and be more creative.
