Welcome to today’s gentle painting session! Join me for an imaginary autumn watercolor walk as we wander through a collection of popular fall motifs. Using fine waterproof ink lines and soft, delicate watercolor washes, we’ll sketch woodland mushrooms, whimsical birds, dried seeds, berries, and warm oak leaves. Today is all about taking a calm, unhurried approach to your nature sketchbook, using loose but delicate ink work and muted but varied color blends mixed from our surprising Kuretake pans. So let's get started - woodland peace is guaranteed!

In this video, we cover:
Mixing muted fall tones (soft earth browns, moss greens, and warm ochres)
Applying gentle wet-in-wet watercolor washes
Sketching loose, expressive outlines with a waterproof fine liner

➡️ 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...
