New series of drawings “Mountain Road - Verglas Noir”made on a trip to the Alps last month, with my family & watercolours & some skis purchased on gumtree. It was cold, there was a lot of snow in the mountains, and hairpin bends with signs saying “Verglas Fréquent“ ❄️
Here are some screenshots from episode 1 of Heidi, Girl of the Alps that were later riffed in Studio #Ghibli movies. Whoever can cite the references gets a free cookie.

A monster in the Alps that looks like a snake with only its paws.
He jumps high and bites his prey with poisonous fangs.
Working on a piece today, so a blast from the past for #landfebruary: Alpine Dusk – soft pastel on black A4 paper.

👀At the @BrooklynMuseum, Kehinde Wiley (@kehindewileyart)'s 'Napoleon Leading the Army over the Alps (2005)', comes face to face with the nineteenth-century painting on which it is based: Jacques-Louis David’s 'Bonaparte Crossing the Alps (1800–1)'.

The alphorn is used by mountain dwellers in the Swiss Alps to communicate with each other. Say hi to the lovely @ArrynZech and @Kara4tx at @japanimpact! (Best to leave the alphorn at home tho) #RWBYTravvel #RWBY
There's some bad weather approaching in this watercolour - Snowstorm, Mont Cenis by J M W Turner - inscribed with the date, 15th January 1820 and 'Passage'. Not a good day to attempt a drive through the Alps! #TuesdayThoughts
funny brought i alps rly like raven and rena, i love the kindness and softness she brings him. naturally the fact that he reminds her of his first love is painful, but the idea that he grows from that and loves rena for rena is so... clutches chest
Raining in the Alps even above 2000 m altitude... Just doesn't feel like winter in much of Europe.
Can't wait to do a bit of hiking; how about heading to the Alps?😀🦊 Here's one I did a couple of weeks ago but didn't get a chance to post before.

🎂 As an early supporter of Alfred Wegener (who will present his theory #OTD in 1912) , he used continental drift theory to explain the #Alps as overthrusted & deformed tectonic nappes ⛰️⛰️

Probably David’s most famous work is ‘Napoleon Crossing the Alps’ (1801). It idealises Napoleon’s advance into Italy in 1800, his name inscribed in stone alongside other great generals who’d taken this route - Hannibal and Karolus Magnus (Charlemagne). #ArtistOfTheWeek (4/5)
