I'm so excited to show you the painting process behind our butterfly DRAWING tutorial from a few weeks ago! She's totally different from the butterflies I've painted in the past and she's a real beauty! I'll share a few new watercolor techniques I'm playing with as well as some fun semi-transparent watercolor effects. I think you'll love it!
