This is post #11 in this mini series of snow scenes.
In terms of technique, it’s the most demanding of all so far in this series. Although it’s only 10 by 13 inches ( or 25 by 33 cm ) it was made difficult by 2 factors. First, when the air temperature is close to [...]

The fourth snow themed painting in this series is by a favourite of mine, the Danish artist Peder Mork Mønsted, who lived a long and fruitful life as a painter from 1859 to 1941.
This canvas dates from 1918, and goes to show that a snow scene does not necessarily have to be rendered in blues. [...]
The work of Rowland Hilder (1905 – 1993) is held up for your admiration in this snow scene, #3 in the advent series.
