Come paint with me as we explore some fun and creative watercolor techniques!

In this video, I’ll walk you through how to achieve each effect, sharing tips and practical ideas so you can easily incorporate them into your own artwork. We’ll cover both popular techniques and a few that are a little less common, but still super fun to try. I used this chance to create some adorable heart-shaped cards, but feel free to grab your sketchbook and just play around with the ideas!

I’d love to hear which technique you enjoyed the most and how you plan to use them in your next painting. Drop a comment below and let’s chat! 👇
