3. Winter Sketchbook Cards: Quiet Light, Snowfall & Small Joys
These sketchbook cards let me explore texture, subtle colour and the softness of falling snow. Each one captures a tiny moment of winter — calm, gentle and full of quiet charm.
Thank you for following my work. I hope these little winter scenes bring a touch of peace and joy to your season.
Winter wonderland
Over the past few weeks I’ve been filling my sketchbook — and my studio — with small winter paintings that capture gentle moments of the season. Snowy paths, soft violet skies, cosy cottages, wandering figures and, of course, plenty of expressive sheep. What began as simple card ideas has naturally grown into a little Winter Sketchbook Collection filled with calm, light and character.
Snowy Wanderers & Winter Calm
Several of these cards follow tiny figures through the snow: a lone walker in a red coat, children climbing a frosty hillside, two friends beneath a lamppost, and another pair sharing a bench under a canopy of iced trees. They feel nostalgic and peaceful — quiet winter stories in miniature.
Cottages in the Cold
I kept returning to clusters of cottages half-buried under snow, their warm ochre and red roofs standing out against soft blue-grey skies. These simple scenes have a stillness to them, a sense of shelter and home.
The Sheep (and the Goose!)
The sheep have truly stolen the show this year — whole flocks moving across snowfields, sheep lined up beneath a purple sky, and one magnificently round ram who looks straight at you as if he knows he’s the star. And then there’s the festive goose in his Santa hat, adding a playful note to the collection.
A Season of Small Joys
These sketchbook cards let me explore texture, subtle colour and the softness of falling snow. Each one captures a tiny moment of winter — calm, gentle and full of quiet charm.
