Mark Making over Watercolor - explore intuitive art with beautiful wet in wet loose techniques

In this intuitive watercolor painting tutorial, join me in real time as I create an abstract using a simple map of the Americas as a jumping off point. Using a limited palette of colors, we'll begin by creating a loose background of spatters and lines, then add shapes and doodles in gold, white, and black to create a peaceful and cohesive painting. Our goal is to help you enter an alpha state where you can access your creative side and stop worrying about perfection. With our step-by-step guidance and encouragement, you can easily smash the creative block and release the art within. Let's explore and see what we can paint together in this fun and easy way to get into the flow of creativity!

About my brushes
I buy my favorite brushes from Drawell. They are handmade in Japan. Drawell will ship readily to anywhere in the world. The prices on their website are in Japanese currency but if you send Mr Maeyama an email he will give you prices in other currencies. The brushes I use are the Golden Nylon Series 11-2, and I use mostly sizes 7or 9 and 10 and 13. http://www.drawell.co.jp/english/prod...
