Hello Beautiful Artists! Today I'm sharing a step-by-step watercolor tutorial that will focus on 3 different brushes - round, filbert and angle or flat - and their specific brushstrokes in painting loose watercolor florals. And along the way we'll paint some carnations! I'll include a quick overview of the supplies and colors I’m using, so you’re fully prepared to paint along. I’ll also talk about how varying color values can add depth and dimension to your painting.
This is a very beginner-friendly tutorial, packed with practical insights delivered in a really relaxed, step by step fashion. I'll keep it light and fun, so grab your brushes, some gorgeous colors, and let’s play!
Happy Painting, and most of all, Enjoy!
