Beginning a New Painting of a Snowscape

I took a photo a few winters ago with the late afternoon sun coming through the snowy forest.  I haven't done this type of scene before - with the sun's light radiating like a star through the trees.  This is my watercolor underpainting on white Kitty Wallis sanded paper.  When it dries I will apply pastel on top.  I am really anxious to do this, to see if I can pull it off...

Hello, Carolyn! :-)
It's extremely beautiful! Light like pours, flowing on the surface of the snow!
Very nice warm shade of light! :-)
I know that you perform this task! Certainly! :-)
I wish you a wonderful day of inspiration!
Hurrey! :-)

I adore the first ´hase, and I like it when shapes havo no definition.
The colours are so sutil and the light is perfect!
