We had a fresh dusting of snow yesterday, which made the underlying layer of snow look much better. There was even a little bit of snow sitting on the branches of the trees. This is 4 x 6 in my January Journal.

I HAVE MOVED!
About Me
- Joan
- I have always participated in the visual arts including watercolors, drawing and sketching, pen and ink, and photography. Since retiring from teaching I have devoted much of my time to watercolors, sometimes combining them with pen and ink or collage. Watercolor is the perfect medium to capture the beauty that surrounds us. I love to travel, and sketch and paint wherever I go. Painting, especially on location, captures the spirit and life of the subject. I hope to continue doing that for a long time to come.

So VERY pretty! We don't get snow here (florida) so I just love seeing it on other people's blogs.
To answer your question about ink drying up in my mister bottles...
Because I used liquid ink rather than watercolor, and alcohol instead of water- drying isn't really a problem for me. The alcohol dissolves any ink that's left on the sprayer with the first spritz. I have kept ink in the misters for months without any issues... however I tend to only mix what I need and use it up so that I can use a different color next time.
I'm going to be a regular at your blog too! Love your work.
Nice snow shadows! You are getting a lot of mileage out of that snowstorm. LOL
Great shadows and love the colors. Great job Joan.
Painting snow is so interesting and you have done a marvellous job. Eileen
Beautiful! And look at those spot on shadows!
Teressa, Mickey, Joan, Eileen,& Sherry - Thank you all for your comments.
This is so pretty! I am always so amazed by the way watercolor can be so transparent yet so full of detail. I moved to California a little over a year ago and escaped this year's 'back east' snow. It's nice to be able to enjoy it again by looking at your paintings!
