We dedicate this post to hot tub guys all over the world.
There’s a lot of snow out there and we thought we’d spend it in a hot tub but we don’t have a hot tub so we looked at some cool art instead. Truth is, after you get over the trauma of stalling your car in on-coming traffic, you have to admit that snow is kind of magical. Skiing, sledding, angels, igloos, hurling chunks of ice at each other–magical. If you’re taking a break from the winter wonderland outside (or if you’re stuck in public transit) check out these snowy paintings, sculptures and photographs. Stay warm and stay safe!
