Watercolor Paper

Here's a practice hack for you...Print your word or phrase on copy paper and practice your layout design with this instead of wasting expensive watercolor paper. I'll practice like this multiple times until I'm happy with my design. THEN I'll get out my watercolor paper, paint or stencil in my letters and paint my flowers. And hopefully it will turn out like I practiced!

An easy way to make bookmarks! Mark out your lines on one side, turn it over and paint whatever you choose, cut on the lines, mount on sturdy white paper, use a grommet tool so your ribbon doesn't tear the paper and voila!... Bookmarks!

Florals made with the Beste Fountain Wedge brush! Layering colors makes this piece pop.... The vintage color of dusty rose paired with a deep green is a favorite. I used Daniel Smith Naphthamide Maroon (muted with some Dr Ph Martin's bleedproof white) and Winsor & Newton Perylene green (also muted with Bleedproof white). Stonehenge Legion Kraft paper was used. A DIY project that can be used for just about anything!

My favorite way to paint flowers is with a Beste Fountain wedge brush by Creative Mark. Because of it's wedge shape, it gives the best strokes for both florals and leaves. You can create loose florals or a tighter botanical look with this brush too. I used a black "wink of stella" brusha and a Signo Uni-ball pen for the floral centers. A fabulous gift, diy or project for your home!

Simple watercolor florals with a Beste Fountain wedge brush are delicate and exquisite. This brush makes it so easy to paint flowers! I used Dr Ph Martin's bleedproof white and a little watercolor for this floral stem. This could be framed, added to a card or envelope, used as an invitation, or so many other possibilities.
