This Is How...

...I did it. One section at a time, step by step. First I painted in the background of snow. 
Then, using a straight razor, I cut out the shapes of the unburnt pines. 
Next, I painted them in and smoothed them over, gently blending the edges into the white to soften their outline. 
Then I did the same thing for the burnt spires of pine trunks before finally moving onto the next section. 
Unbelievably, this process took just under four hours for a section just over a square inch.
