Snowy Landscapes In Art And Illustration

Like the various underwater scenes, snow can be many colours other than white. The colour of snow depends on the colour of the sky, the ambient light. Pastel pinks and blues are common, but as you’ll see below, snow can also be quite brightly coloured and the viewer still reads it as snow.
