The Watercolor Tip I Use in Every Painting

In this watercolor tutorial, I’m sharing one of my favorite watercolor tips that makes painting soft petals and edges much easier. I’ll start with a simple demonstration so you can clearly see the technique in action, and then show how I use the same approach when working on more detailed floral paintings. Once you see how it works, it’s a method you can easily add to your own watercolor practice. If you enjoy learning through step-by-step demonstrations, I also have a longer tutorial available where we apply these kinds of watercolor techniques to a full floral painting. 🎨 Full Length Etsy tutorial: https://sunlitbrushstrokes.etsy.com/c...
