Spoiler: anyone who freehands beautiful line art florals practiced them by tracing or copying them at some point in time. Instead of just tracing them this week with one line, we’ll be pulling a section of florals from an existing bouquet, customize it to fit our needs, then bring the line drawing to life by adding some digital watercolor with pretty blends to finish it off. Although it starts with a basic trace, it finishes with a completely original piece of work you can use for any occasion. ✨

Happy Tuesday! We had a few 70*F weather days in February here, so springtime has been on my mind a lot lately.

You can use this for any kind of promo throughout the year, or change up the messaging to create a fun gift tag for any personal occasion, too!

Happy Tuesday! This week, we’re changing things up a bit and trying out a new style! In this week’s video, we’re creating watercolor sketch style basil in Procreate. This is a loose, fun style that gives you a lot of freedom and permission to experiment (also perfect for beginners ;). In the video, we create a sketch based on a photograph, then layer in limited color to build a little depth. We finish things up with a texture and color layered shadow for extra dimension and add in some sketch style lettering to tie everything together.

It’s Tuesday! Time for another tutorial 😉 This week, we’re painting 3 watercolor cactus doodles in Procreate! If you caught this tutorial a few weeks ago, this is the cactus version 🙂 In the video, we create simple containers filled with an Indian fig cactus and two versions of a saguaro cactus. You can use any brushes you’d like, though the ones shown are my watercolor illustration brushes. As always,the color palette is free + also available in the Resource Library.

Another Tuesday, another tutorial! In case you missed it, I just released my newest class, Watercolor Florals in Procreate, yesterday! The course covers how to create a variety of different florals and today, I wanted to share one of the first lessons from the class – how to create watercolor floral doodles! You can use the brushes shown in the video or you can use your own brushes if you’d like to change up the style. Use these on stationery, social media or even create a logo out of them. They’re really fun (and easy) to make and you’ll be able to follow along, even if you’re opening Procreate for the very first time.

When I received these Karin markers a few weeks ago, I obsessively played with them for days on end. Unlike other watercolor markers I’ve tried, these ones were packed with pigment, so easy to use and blended like a dream with water. The more I experimented, the more I was drawn to all the incredible textures you can achieve with them! In this week’s tutorial, I’m sharing 3 winter watercolor texture tricks you can use for cards + holiday artwork! Read on for the full tutorial + supply list!
