the original
My teacher Marie Natale, who makes a living from her art and teaching, taught us this trick for turning a painting into a snow scene.
Lightly secure a piece of workable acetate over your painting with tape then paint "snow" on the acetate using bleed-proof white or Aquacover liquid paper (available from various online artshops); add a little color for shadows or volume.
Then photograph the scene and print it out.

What a neat trick!
ReplyDeletevery clever!
ReplyDeleteAn awesome idea! I've got a painting I'd like to use as a snow scene, so I'm going to give this a try. Actually it's already a snow scene, but I'm going to make it a Christmas scene. Thanks so much for this. Great paintings!
