A quick and easy technique for painting snow is to leave random white areas and than add your branches to fit. Requires less planning and accuracy. This is a simple demonstration of that process.

Materials:
Uni-ball Deluxe Micro .05 pen is a rollerball type and is almost indestructible.
Exclusive pigment-based ink forms an indelible bond in paper, for intense coloration and document security
Archival quality, acid-free ink for valued documents
PAPER: Size- 5"x7"
Arches 1401b Cold Press Paper for this Video.
My papers of choice include Arches 140lb Hot press and Cold press paper and Strathmore 500 series Sketchbooks. All are 100% cotton rag.
For beginners, I recommend starting with a high quality paper and experimenting with different types. As your style develops, you'll get a feel for which type is best. Waiting to switch to a better quality paper later will be much like learning to paint all over again.
MY PALETTE: All tube paints!
Winsor Newton- Yellow Ochre, Sepia, Burnt Sienna, Winsor Red, Davy's Gray, Ultramarine, Sap Green.
DaVinci - Phthalo Blue, Quinachridone Fuchsia, Cadmium Yellow Lemon, Cadmium Yellow Deep.
A note on Davy's Gray: I rarely use this pigment straight and when using it I usually mix it with each colour used.
PAINT PALETTE::
The palette is the mixing tray from a "Koi" Watercolour travel set. The colours are set up so the ones I mix together most often are close together.
The paints are squeezed onto slips of paper and then stuck to the palette.
This makes replacing or changing colours quick and easy.
BRUSH: An inexpensive, Curry's brand, #2 brush.
A Polar Flo 1/2 inch flat brush is my current favorite. The bristle were originally white but have become stained.
