In this realistic watercolor rock tutorial, you will learn to paint rocks like a pro. I show you exactly how to make them 3-dimensional, how to build the tones that give them shape, and how to add the details, that bring them to life. An ideal project to complement a wildlife painting, even use them for the Wood Mouse, as I did (https://bit.ly/3V31RVc).
If you would like to learn more about creating different textures with watercolors, this would be a good video to watch next: *https://bit.ly/397KBI4*
