This charming winter scene invites you to explore a palette of cool and warm tones. Embrace the opportunity to practice texture and blending, bringing the magic of a snowy discovery to life!
Colored pencils are excellent for the intricate details of animal tracks and layered clothing. Fine-tip markers or gel pens can add crispness to the small birds and outlines. Soft pastels can create a smooth, ethereal effect for the sky and distant snow.
Start by coloring the largest areas like the snow and sky with light, even pressure. Use a simple, warm color for the friends' outfits and contrasting cool colors for the snow and evergreen branches. Work from top to bottom to prevent smudging.
Use directional strokes for snow texture, following the contours of the ground and tracks. Apply soft blending for gradients in the sky. Use cross-hatching to define knitwear on clothing. Consider adding subtle highlights on the birds' feathers for realism.
