About the Course
I have created this course with the aim of inspiring your own creative watercolor journey, and I am thrilled to have you here. I am eagerly anticipating seeing your interpretations. In this Flamingo watercolor tutorial, we will explore basic watercolor techniques and follow a step-by-step process from start to finish. Enjoy the experience of working with a limited palette and observe the magic of water as it creates layers. Approach this tutorial with ease, enjoyment, and grace. Let's begin by discussing the materials needed: brushes, watercolor paints, watercolor paper, a clean cup of water, paper towels, and waterproof outliner pens. For reference, I am using a round point brush, Grabie watercolors (fluorescent colors are used in this tutorial but are not required), and an 8x8 cold press 140lb watercolor paper. This is my first time recording a full tutorial in real-time, and learning how to edit and film is a new skill for me. I appreciate your patience as I work to enhance communication. I am excited about this new journey and look forward to having you be a part of it.
