Easy Watercolor Plants for Your Art Journal

In this video “makoccino” explains her process as she demonstrates her techniques for painting plants using watercolors. Starting with a simple doodle or sketch and filling it in with watercolors is a great way to jumpstart your creativity, and is ideal when you don’t have much time for making art. You can come back to these small doodles whenever you have a few minutes spare and continue filling them in.

If you’ve never used watercolors before, they are fun to use, and it’s easy to create unique colors and textures on the pages of your journal. When working with watercolors it’s best to use a watercolor sketchbook and good quality watercolor paints because they normally have stronger pigments and will produce beautiful colors.
