How to PAINT DETAILS with Watercolor (LEAF PAINTING)

Whilst painting this small leaf, I am going to teach you how to paint details with watercolor.

A realistic, illustrative style of painting often looks like it is beyond the scope of an amateur artist. But, let me teach you what is possible, using my non-jargon, step-by-step approach. I'll break the process down into manageable steps that even beginners can accomplish. You don't even need masses of equipment, just a bit of spare time, and an energy to learn. I hope you find this short tutorial helpful, if you do, please leave me a comment, as I would love to know. Thank you.
