How to Paint a Whimsical Landscape - Quick and Easy Watercolor for Beginners - Greetings Card Idea

This project is a simple way of practising loose wet in wet painting. You will start to become familiar with the different ways that your paints respond and combine on the wet paper. Try this idea out more than once with different colors, and you will really get to know your paints. And then why not make it your own - change the houses into birds, the trees into flowers, choose different quotes... An ideal relaxation project which would make a greetings card that's guaranteed to raise a smile!

In all my watercolor tutorials, I show you a simple painting for beginners in detail and in real time. By painting along you will learn all the techniques you need to create amazing art. Your watercolor skills will improve quickly when you practice these easy paintings! Whether you want to paint bookmarks, greetings cards, embellishments for junk journals, gifts or ambitious landscapes, you’ll gain confidence and experience by trying my projects.
