New video: How to paint watercolour bookmarks for beginners


Hey there, Reader!

Do you love reading? I do!

When I'm not creating art, I'm often reading a good book because it's one of my favourite hobbies.

So I had an idea.

What if I combined my love for art and reading into one project?

Thus the concept for my newest watercolour tutorial was born.

This week, I'm teaching you a simple step-by-step process that'll help you create your very own watercolour bookmarks!

In my newest YouTube video titled Easy watercolour bookmarks for beginners: Watercolour and ink tutorial, I teach you how to:

  • Paint two colourful bookmarks using different colour palettes.
  • Apply a seamless variegated wash with smooth transitions and a spontaneous variegated wash with lots of texture.
  • Use pen and ink so that you can draw simple but lovely floral designs on each bookmark.

Yes, you read that correctly.

This video includes two fun and easy watercolour tutorials. What a treat!

By the time you're done watching the video, you'll know how to create two easy watercolour bookmarks that you can use in your everyday life.

And if reading isn't really your thing, you can gift the bookmarks to your family and friends. Isn't that nice?

So come join me in this week's video and let's paint together, Reader!

Talk to you again soon,

Your art instructor,

Miranda

I relate to you...

Hey there, Reader! As a mixed media artist, I love playing around and experimenting with different mediums. But sometimes I need to take a break from one while I hone my skills in another. That being said, lately I've felt a longing to paint with watercolours again after taking a break from them these past few months. So while I create new video content (new YouTube videos are in the works!), I've decided to share with you some fun watercolour tutorials to inspire you to paint something new...
