Concentrated Watercolors

These spring florals were painted using the wet on wet technique. For the yellow flower, use the color Taxi. Paint some thin lines until you form a circle and spread the color towards each petal. The orange flower was painted using Orange Red mixed with Candy. Paint some petals using a clean brush and drop the color on the wet petals. Let the colors bleed into the water. To create the peachy pink color, you can mix Candy and Tangerine. Add a lot of water to the mixture to achieve a muted color. The blue violet flowers were a mix of Mystic and Truth. To finish painting this bouquet, add some leaves in between the flowers. The leaves were a mix of Lucky and Tree. In order to create a deeper shade of green, you may try mixing Wood with any shade of green.

To add shadow to the center of the flower, mix Tangerine, Mystic and a little bit of Candy to create a dark color. For the leaves, use Tree and add Truth to achieve a bluish green color.

Draw the outline of a whale and paint some clean water inside the shape of the whale. We will use the wet on wet technique to create a loose and flowy effect. Use the colors Truth, Clarity, Diva, and Lucky for the body of the whale. Add Onyx for the shadows. For the background, paint some clean water outside the shape of the whale and splatter some paints. You may use Clarity, Truth, Candy and Diva. To add some fun texture to the whale, get an old toothbrush. Dip it in Truth or Onyx and flick the bristles on top of the whale to get some small specks of paint.

Let the koi fish dry then paint some clean water on the background of the fish. Drop in the color Truth and Bora Bora to create the illusion of water as the background. Add the color Lucky to make the blue color pop up.
