Burrrrr...is right! Beautifully done Steve.

Thank you for teaching this. You are a very good teacher. I sure wish I could paint like you. I’m only a beginner. I’m sure you were once a beginner too. It takes time and patience I assume.

Pleasure to watch.

Thank you, it's awesome!

@sherryfurr9115 Год назад

This is not related to this particular video, but I did not know where else to post it. I want to sincerely thank you! I started watercolor a year ago (self taught..paint 2-4 hrs a day... yes I am consumed with this). I have probably painted 1000 trees, not one of which I was pleased with UNTIL I watched one of your videos from 4 years ago and you said to think"clouds." And you painted from the bottom up. Boom my trees look fabulous. You are the best!!!

@FRAN2639 Год назад

Snow is beautiful. I Appreciate this information. Come to Eastern Oregon and you will fall in love with its beauty!

Thank you! My back yard is gorgeous right now ... very winter-wonderlandish, like God dusted everything with powdered sugar. I love to look at it, but painting it in watercolor has just been far too intimidating. Maybe I'll give it a go. :)

@colleenmcchesney1482 Год назад

I really appreciate you doing a wonderful winter ❄️ scenery painting. I am thrilled to hear about the 3 ways to approach painting this kind of painting. I understand completely how you feel about the snow being around more the a few days & being tired of it. White Christmas 🎄& enjoyable for a day or two 🥶but then I am ready for the warm sunshine. I am also glad to know that I have been using the same three colors (Cobalt Blue, Cereulean Blue, & Payne’s Gray) for my attempts to paint winter scenery. I have really enjoyed learning how to get the shading details right. Thanks for sharing this fun video.

I am commenting before watching, because I need to thank Steve Mitchell for so much that i have learned with your videos. Especially about M.Graham watercolors and white gouache and colored pencils. I have practised with these and the evolution in my paintings are incredible, thanks to this amazing artist and teacher! Hugs from Brazil.

This is absolutely stunning. I live in western Michigan, and we get lots and lots of snow. I have been very intimidated to try to paint it because of the lack of color but you showed me a completely different concept to painting snow. Thank you again.

I'm in south central Mich too and (don't tell anybody) I really enjoy a fresh snowfall. I think Steve did an excellent job at capturing the mood with a very limited palette.

Beautiful as always. I LOVE snow - would rather have my yard sparkle white, the houses with dollops of snow hanging over the eves like frosting and the trees frosted than green grass and leaves. Good thing I live in the North where we have more months of snow than not. I can't imagine Christmas without it. Love your painting - thanks for sharing your techniques.

@ollie54able Год назад

Hello Steve, again just a marvelous demonstration of "how to..." I have a question regarding painting a snow scene. I am painting the Chapel in Yosemite (I am very lucky to live very close to Yosemite Valley). I have completed a summer version of this chapel and now I going to attempt to do the same chapel but it is a from several years ago. The foreground has changed somewhat but not the background. So my question is in you demonstration you have a few trees (evergreens) and the snow piled on looks great. In Yosemite there are several varieties of trees; deciduous as well as evergreens.. How do/what suggestion do you have for painting the deciduous trees are just finishing up the fall loosing of leaves and have a few inches of fresh early snow fall. Thanks for any tips and or references on where to look for approaching how to painting snow. Thank you very much. Blessings.

@mindofwatercolor Год назад

Just look for good deciduous tree (with snow) photo reference.
