The weather outside is The Design for window painting

Using winter weather is a fun way to decorate for the holidays.

The weather outside is...
delightful when you concoct a scene like this in window painting with people being busy in the snow. It is the season for window painting. 
I love to create this effect with the snowy slopes and trees. I particularly love painting snow scenes because Las Vegas --where I live -- does not get snow often and when we do get it, the snow is never enough to build snowmen or sled on. We have to go to the mountains for snow play.


There are so many designs you can throw together using the favorites from the holidays, even weather.  I love the goofy look on that poor girl who just fell on the skating rink ice. Did she get pushed or is she just a bit clumsy? 


This set of images is from a doctor's office I have been painting for some time. They love the snow scenes with skaters and snowman building and general snow play.

In this scene you can see a father and son building a snowman and two girls ice skating.

And we have the sledding boy ready to make his mark on the mountain:

Here we have the snow angel kid.

Can you see how the snow is fluffy on the top of this section? I did that by stippling with a larger, regular, old paintbrush. I like doing that better than spray snow. Spray snow has a tendency to stain with the oils and chemicals that are in it, but the paint I use washes away easily come the first of the year. 

For information on how to get started painting window designs like these, visit my home page here and buy my tutorial, The Essential Window Painting Guide. It will teach you everything you need to know to begin your season of window painting. If you cannot draw, it will teach you a few ways to get started there, too!
