A young woman lies crumpled in the snow, her broken broomstick beside her. A group of children stands surrounding her, closest of them holding a snowball between their hands, their faces lit up with happiness from seeing their friend in such a state. The shades of winter bleed through the picture, the sun setting on a landscape of deserted grey and white. Colouring the scene must start with a contrast between the muted grey tones of the snow and the warmer tones of the characters. The woman must have a certain despair in her features that holds the spectator in their gaze. Make the eyes of the children shine with an inner joy - giving the page a balance that simultaneously spotlights the woman's sorrow and the children's exulted pleasure. Add little touches of colour to amplify the feeling and bring the frozen moment to life.
