I'm very fond of winter paintings because of the nuance of the whites, creams, greys. In my own work, I tend to pop in a lot of softened blues and purples for the sky and shadows. And sometimes a bit of lemon yellow for the weakened sunlight. But of all the seasons, I've produced the fewest of winter. I find it impossible to be out in the cold, though once--I was in Scotland and it was supposed to be spring--I worked in my mittens. And though I often do (only) landscapes from photos, I rarely scout out possible scenes this time of year.
However, here are some I've done in oil.

And here's a Santa Fe scene in watercolor.
