Drawing and coloring snowy trees
It's a wonderful time to see our beautiful winter wonderland! Today's art is inspired by the snow and our cold weather. One of my favorite things is to connect art and nature. Today’s art, as before, is half inside and half outside! Go outside and look at trees, snow and their shapes.
Then when you’re back get your art supply and let’s go!
What you’ll need: paper, pencil, eraser, pencil colors
1. Draw an arrow upwards
2. Add lines alternately inside an imaginary triangle to make sure the lower lines are longer
3. Add outlines in between as in the image of step 3
4. Add snow shapes on top of the main lines- the same ones we drew in step 2
5. Add more snow parts alternately across the tree
6. Add colors! *Tip: as you color make sure the directions of your lines are in the same direction of the arrow main lines
Hope you enjoyed the art today! Make it your own and play with it, it's nice to make more than one, make it into a forest, add yourself skiing on a hill, and just let your ideas flow! I’d love to see what you did.

Have a colorful day,
