art winter scene

Last night I finished the winter scene I've been working on for 3 weeks in art classes. It's amazing how much time goes into a painting. I had no idea this single painting would take me so long. It's also crazy that i can replicate a picture. I look at it beforehand and think how in the world am i actually going to make this. It's impossible. Mine will be some sort of stick figure version. But in the end it always turns out, thanks to rolande (our teacher) who patiently works with me and gives me tips and even takes over occasionally so that I'm happy with my painting.
