Snowflakes are relatively easy to draw – just make a vertical downstroke, and then put an “X” through the center, like you’d see on a pirate’s flag. The simplest ones then just have a stack of letter “V”s on each spire. (Like the white one in the upper right). I used this as a reference to copy. If you send holiday cards, try adding a few on the envelope with a silver or blue metallic pen. If all else fails, you can simply draw an asterisk! Vary the sizes of your snowflakes, to give a sense of depth.
I hope you enjoy the winter holidays, and settle into a cozy hibernation, mirroring in yourself the quiet, dormant season outdoors. May you enjoy a time of rest, reflection and peace.
Here’s a very short video I made to get you in that mood.
Warmly,
Emily
