So now we can start with the fun part!
Remember that the first layers are always best when kept loose, fun, and messy. We can always tighten up things in the last layers if we want to.
The key is not striving for perfection and just letting the watercolors do their thing. That’s when the magic happens!
Wasn’t that fun?
If your painting looks as crazy and scary as mine in this first stage you are on the right track… Don’t give up here, keep going!
