Fellow North Easterners, let’s take a small break from describing recent weather with suffixes like “pocalyse” and “ageddon” and look at few sketches that remind us how gorgeous snow can be…when we don’t have to deal with it personally.
Since I am unable to speak or read Russian, I can’t impart any info about this artist. Just sit back and enjoy the view.
I’m posting some of the larger landscape sketches, but there are a number of “close ups” which also demonstrate amazing depictions of light and detail.
Nature, it its cruel indifference, is really quite breathtaking…
Many more here.

My God, I can’t believe my eyes!
In my mind it was impossible to manage the light in a so powerful way using pencils! This Russian “guy” (well, he is not very young) is an incredible artist, I really would like to see his works from live…
Truly impressive, I’m amazed. Thank you.
You’re very welcome. I’m glad you also appreciate the beauty of these drawings.
All I can say is “WOW”!
That word went through my mind when I saw this work too!
Wonderful!
But I disagree with your view on snow, it is the best thing this time of the year. There is nothing sadder, darker and more depressing than a winter without loads of snow… But I’m way more up north than anyone in the US (outside Alaska, I guess) 😛
Ah, I’m a wimpy New Yorker…so I’m not used to the most cold/snow this country has to offer! I always admire people who can handle a brutally cold, snowy winter.
