This winter racoon is really easy to draw and fun to create. You will be drawing in a step by step fashion to fill up your picture plane with the racoon and the tree limbs around him that serve as his winter home. You will use various colors of oil pastels after you sketch out the composition then paint over them to show texture as an element of art. You will also learn about contrast as you show light colors next to darker colors, as well as the contrast in the added snow splatters. The snow splatters are really fun to make and emoms, they really aren't messy! Have fun!
