Abstract Watercolor Painting Tutorial For Beginners: How To Get Past the "Ugly" Stage

#watercolor #abstractart #mixedmedia Abstract Watercolor Painting Tutorial For Beginners: How To Get Past the "Ugly" Stage I was going to delete this video because I struggled a bit through the middle layer, but I thought it might help you figure out how to work past that "ugly" middle stage that most paintings go through. Plus there was a couple of fun techniques that I thought you might enjoy! Generally, when you hit that stage, and you don't like it anymore, it means that you are not finished yet 😉 I encourage you to create your own amazing piece of artwork or just gather your art supplies and just have fun (which is the most important part)!
