Sketchbook paintings are the BEST FUN EVER Boost your confidence and create with this watercolor method.
I’m into sketchbook art at the moment and I’m going to suggest that we start collecting our watercolor fantasy doodles in a sketchbook to help us feel we’re making progress with all the techniques we need to create with confidence. If we practice these doodles often, and keep them to refer back to when we are lacking inspiration, our painting skills will improve seemingly without any effort! So practice your color mixing, water control, creating graduated washes, different strokes and both wetinwet and wetondry as well as line work with ink, gel pens, pencils and brush pens all in one great big sketchbook and see where that takes you!
