This is an amazing tutorial. You do such beautiful work! I also use Albrecht Durer pencils for a base under my Polychromos for details. I see many people ask how to represent white things with colored pencil and this tutorial was so helpful Thank You

Shelly this tutorial is wonderful. Hoping this is a series of tutorials of different elements🌸🌸

So helpful thank you for sharing ❤

Thank you so much Shel! I'm new to coloring and was stressing about how to manage snow and ice. Now I'm ready for the winter season!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! Your coloring is so beautiful, and I’m really excited to try these combinations and techniques ❄️ I tend to avoid illustrations with snow, but now I’m excited to give it a go!

Great video Shelly! Thanks so much for sharing! Possibly a series? Beautiful work!

Shelly, thank you so very much for such an in-depth tutorial. I recreated this page entirely by hand and have it saved in my swatch book. I am in the middle of trying to complete a page in a Mythographic book that has snow an this tutorial helped me get past coloring the snow. I love your coloring. Thank you again for sharing.

Excellent tutorial. Very helpful and insightful.

Yes, thank you, lovely

I never used to like coloring snow...After seeing this I love it.Thank you very much❤

Thank you so much for all the detail on shadow and light!

Hi Shelly, this was so helpful. Your colouring is always stunning ❤

These are so cute! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for sharing🤗 I’ve never colored snow before. Definitely going to try this ❤

Thank you very much Shelley! I’m excited to finally get the courage to try coloring snow. You helped me find my courage!

I really liked that last snowman a lot, they are all so pretty. The last snowman looked like it was in the forest at night, just beautiful. This was so much fun, thank you so much! ☃️

Hello Shell Thankyou for this tutorial, your work is beautiful. Thankyou for your colour combos🌸🌸

Soooo excited to watch this with a cup of something warm!

Thank you Shel ! 🥰 You are amazing as always!

Oh, this was a good video who knew so many color combinations could be used

I use Neenah bristol vellum, but I use the back side which is smoother. It has just the right amount of tooth to grab pigment without being so rough it won't take detail. I have no issue with it taking the amount of water I use for watercolor pencil. It dries almost flat with watercolor pencil alone and completely flat if I pencil over it. It will warp with heavy water and even pill, so not good for painting. It's fine with markers as well, no excessive bleeding or feathering. It really isn't great for ink consumption, because it's so thick it's absorbent, but since I always use my markers as a base under pencil I don't care to color on smooth marker paper. The best paper for markers is either those designed for it which are coated, or a thin very hard pressed paper.. I have one I bought at Walmart that is lovely and inexpensive it's 28lb super premium bright inkjet paper, it's so hard pressed its semi-glossy and markers lay down on it super smooth with very little absorption. Non absorbent paper not only saves ink but improves blending and reduces streaking. I use a lot of different types of pencils and a very smooth paper/cardstock won't work well with some.. I find the Neenah bristol vellum cardstock (Amazon) to be the most versatile I've tried. I don't recall the weight probably somewhere around 90lb. I can look it up if you wish to know. The best if you are going to use water is 100 cotton hot press wc paper, for plain pencil 100% cotton bristol vellum, but I want something that will go through my printer nicely and handcut paper never works well no matter how careful you try to be to get it perfectly square. Plus I just won't pay that price for hobby coloring. For actual watercolor I won't paint on anything but 100% cotton, and if I were framing my pencil work that is what I would use because it's archival. I can put up to 140# through my printer, one sheet at a time.. but you have to have a back side feed so it only has to make one gentle bend through the printer. Otherwise I wouldn't go past standard cardstock weight which is 60-90lbs.

I really needed this video. Thank you so much ❤

LOVE this video Shel thanks so much for sharing it is a big help.

Great video, thank you so much for sharing this ❤

Thanks for sharing, I want to color snow now!

Thank you for sharing this!

You are so talented! Tank you for the amazing tutorial and for sharing your color combinations with us! Your coloring pages for snow are so lovely! I am looking forward to the next ones. ⛄

This is really fun! Thank you Shelly! I have only tried snow once and it wasn't very successful, so this is VERY helpful and I have the polys so YAY!

Thanks so much for this! I’m new to coloring and was looking forward to some snowy winter pictures. This will be a huge help! I’ve really enjoyed your color alongs. I appreciate getting to follow along with each step, it makes a page feel less overwhelming.

What a wonderful, useful and timely tutorial. Thank you

Great video Shelly , thank you !

Awesome tutorial! Thanks for sharing!

I like 3 and 5 the most, but all are beautiful. Thanks so much for sharing your snow color combinations. It will be very helpful when coloring snow.💖

So helpful!! Thank you ❤

These are all lovely and I appreciate the time you took to illustrate and explain snow. I just ordered Mandala Magical Nature Night Adult Coloring Book. Its beautiful and very affordable at the MOMENT. I would love to see you do something in it in the future. It's not a standard mandala book and its heavy cardstock. Cheers!

Hi shel .. I really enjoyed this upload so helpful I’ve saved this and screen shot this as this will really help me as I struggle with snow tysmfs 🥰

I loooove all of these options, but especially your explanation. It is so empowering for us to be creative and not just copy, although i would copy some of these if they fit my color combos. Your explanations are so detailed it makes it easier to adapt to my own pages. Thank you ❤

Very helpful! Thank you!😍

Wow, that was a fun video!!!!

Shel what a great techniques video!

Shelley, thank you for this tutorial. I love that you used snowmen to demonstrate! It makes it so user friendly. I will definitely be using these color combinations. I don’t have any Faber Castell, but I will use a conversion chart for my Prismacolors. ☃

I’m in Australia so our weather is opposite and getting warmer, I don’t like very hot days they are so draining, I prefer cooler weather as I was born in the UK lived there till I was 25, I have been in Australia for 50 years! 😮

This was so very helpful. Love the first and the purple version! Did you create this page? Might we be able to purchase it? I love to color samples like these, but find I need an image, not a circle or box.

I loved this video! Thank you so much for sharing! Did you make the image chart you are coloring on, or is it available somewhere? Thanks!
