Love the dry-brush on the left... the broken colour very expressive of snow; whethere we'll GET any is of course another matter altogether; it's a rare beast where I am, and we're never prepared for it. So - mixed feelings: like to see and paint it; not overly keen on slithering down the pavement, across the road, and right into a corporation dust-cart. Hoping to avoid that then....

I love the tonal range of your snow scene Alan, adds bags of atmosphere. Have a lovely time over the festivities darling and I wish you good health and lots of inspiration for 2026…..and beyond! X

Lovely snow scene, great trees, all best wishes to you too Alan. Looking forward to enjoying your paintings and sketches in 2026.

This classic work of art is a brilliant example of masterful execution and profound beauty. Depicting winter and snow is a widely recognized artistic challenge, given the complexity of light and color; this piece effectively captures those nuances and serves as an exceptional study for fellow artists.Excellent achievement. Bravo !

Lovely wintry feeling, Alan.

Love the slushy snow and adore the main tree it almost looks like watercolour in a good way, thinking of either trying some very slow drying acrylics or having another go with oils? Brilliant !👌👍
