I painted the snow banks on the left side of the painting as well as to the right. To make sure that the snow appeared brighter than the snow surrounding it I mixed in more pure white than usual to my previous white mixture. In addition to completing the buildings in the painting I also paint in some bright clean snow banks that are in front of the houses. So I mixed in more white and a little bit of orange (to make it warmer in temperature) to my previous white mixture. The white I mixed up to represent the snow on the roof is lighter in value. Next, I added in a shadow are that marks the beginning of the roof. So, I mixed in a little bit of cadmium red and yellow to get the color to be more accurate. The front part of the building is a very similar value to the shadow part of the building I just completed. The buildings in the landscape are now complete! I added in the building that is to the right of the last building I painted.
