Beginner Watercolor Series - Watercolor Supplies
After much review and hard thinking, it’s finally time for me to prepare and deliver a beginner watercolor tutorials series to you.
There are so many options for beginners out there that I have found a greater passion in teaching more advanced techniques and art theory rather than focusing on “beginner methods”. But after sharing my 3 Tips to Mastering a New Art Medium a few weeks ago, my head started spinning with different ways that I could share different watercolor techniques and tricks with you that I think would make it more memorable and impactful. While there are a number of valuable beginner classes or courses that you could take for watercolor, I trust and hope that this series will have something fresh and new to offer.
In this series we will be working with a variety of different art supplies and I will be sharing a few of my favorite techniques—breaking each one down to help you better understand and implement them into your artistic endeavors. In each video I will use the same color palette, brushes and tools to keep your learning process simple and easy to follow.

In this video I'm excited to share some of my favorite watercolor tips and tricks (that actually work)! This is more than your typical "salt" or "crayon resist" tricks that so many people share—instead, these are tools or techniques that have helped to take my fine art watercolors to the next level or have made my life as an artist significantly easier.
