Watercolor Christmas Gift Tags For Beginners

If you are a beginning artist and doubt that you can paint these motifs, I want you to know, they are easier than they look. Each of these illustrations is made up of several simple steps that when combined result in an image that looks more complicated than it is. Spend thirty minutes with me and I'll show you how to do it.
