About the Snowman

Snowmen are one of the most familiar winter pictures, made by rolling and stacking snow and then dressing it up with whatever is at hand: a hat, a scarf, a carrot nose, and buttons. People enjoy building them wherever there is snow, and the image works just as well on paper for anyone who wants a taste of winter, whatever the weather outside.

A good way to approach these sheets is to choose a small palette first, for example two cool blues for shadows, one warm red or green for the scarf, and a single accent color for the hat. Leaving the body mostly white, with pale blue shading on one side, keeps the snowman bright and gives it a soft, rounded look.
