Hi Steemit!
If you know, the winter is not so white and fluffy in fact ... :)
Today our city was covered with the first snow and at dawn I saw our street in many shades. From purple-lilac to sizo-turquoise-ashy. And since the threshold of the New Year unites all thoughts into one big, winter, festive flow, then it is necessary to draw it ... a stream of thoughts.
I have everything as usual. It was easy and simple to draw, because I really like to simplify.

Spread phlegm on the canvas.

I connect the colors with my finger.

In the same place, I drew a finger at the gray dents of the clouds and noticed the sun.

I put burgundy idols of modern trees and immediately sketched a sketch of the future picture, so as not to get lost in the imagination.

A little classics ... a hut, a quiet river.

A more distinct sunny circle and a glare from it on the mirror of the river.

Tree in the foreground. I will decorate it with sunlight with the help of a palette knife.

I squeeze the paint palette knife.
I cover first tree with snow and draw a second tree.

I transform the house, and put the distant trees, like orange peaks.

Just a little ... Just a little more snow, a little brighter than the sun.

Happy New Year my friends! :)
So evocative and I loved the steps. I like the fluidity, almost water color-like. I am following now and love finding other fellow artists on Steemit!
the steps are just so clear and the colors are put together very well. thumbs up @malinamoss
I will also try to follow your steps specially the one with the base colors and the mixing of them with finger
