Welcome back to our channel! Today, we’re playing with wet-in-wet watercolor techniques to create a vibrant, loose autumn journal page or sketchbook entry.
The wet-in-wet method is one of the most satisfying ways to paint. Allowing the pigments to flow, blend, and bloom on the paper takes away the pressure—you just sit back and let the paint do the heavy lifting!
Once our background dries, we’ll layer in loose calligraphy and add simple leaves, berries, and woodland details with ink. There are no strict rules here, so wet your paper, grab your brushes, and let’s see where the watercolor takes us.

➡️ About my brushes
I buy my favorite brushes from Drawell. They are handmade in Japan. Drawell will ship readily to anywhere in the world. The prices on their website are in Japanese currency but if you send Mr Maeyama an email he will give you prices in other currencies. The brushes I use are the Golden Nylon Series 11-2, and I use mostly sizes 7or 9 and 10 and 13. http://www.drawell.co.jp/english/prod...
