    Wink A snowy Christmas night in Yorkshire

    Really enjoyed this one, I have wanted to create a traditional English watercolour using Artrage, now I think I have found the right techniques, it's turned out exactly how I imagined.

    Tools: Watercolour dried strokes, gloop, pencil, sticker spray (for foliage, snowfall) wax/chalk for snow texture.
    Canvas: Watercolour

    This wasn't copied from a Christmas card, its drawn from scratch using a reference photo I had.

    It's beautiful!
    May the stars carry your sadness away,
    May the flowers fill your heart with beauty,
    May hope forever wipe away your tears,
    And, above all, may silence make you strong.

    What a lovely scene! Makes me want to wander around there. There may be snow, but it feels cozy and cheery, like there couldn't be a bad thought hiding anywhere in it. Quite wonderful.

    Very sparkly. A really uplifting piece. Happy Holidays to you Jules! I wish you many joyous moments in paint. You seem to have a knack for capturing it and sharing it.
