Easy Watercolor Seascape | 2024 - 26

Summer is here sweet friends! Damien, Garou and I just got back from a vacation exploring the beautiful Fundy Coast in both Maine and New Brunswick, Canada. When there is this much beauty all around, it's hard not to get inspired. In this video, I'll show you an easy way to create a whimsical little seascape. I hope you'll feel inspired to paint with me or grab your favorite brew and sit with me to relax.
