Hello again!

Welcome to

Watercolor For Beginners: Line Drawing Of Japanese Lady with me, Miwa Gardner ( ´艸｀)

For those that want to send holiday postcards but want to create their own, this is a class for you!

Even if you are a beginner, this class will guide you to be able to create a beautiful Christmas tree postcard with Japanese patterns.

Intro: Why I wanted to share this class with you and what I will be teaching.

Materials:

This class will guide you with the materials that you will definitely need to those that you will find convenient to have.

I was going to post the materials list but noticed that I can't until the end of Jan (sorry due to relocation so don't have few things with me)

So these are the things I was going to list there instead...

Paper

Holbein White bis post card 30

Watercolor Brushes

Trekell Brush

Watercolor paints

Schmincke Horadam Aquarell Full Pan Paint Metal set of 18 Colours

Coliro Pearl Colors

Other:

Pencil 4HB

1 Cup of water

Eraser

A ruler

A protractor

Masking Tape

Drawing:

I go over the basics in drawing 2 patterns. Asanoha and Shippo.

You can check more details on how to draw Asanoha at my other class "Japanese Lucky Cat In Watercolor".

Color Testing

Nailing down what palette you want to use and thinking about the composition first prepares you for the finally project. I will be sharing in this short video how I mix my own colours from a palette I found online and test it out on the sketch of the composition Ill be using for the final project.

Final Project

I will take you through to creating the Xmas post card by combining what we have learnt so far from the previous lessons.

Im sure you will enjoy this class no matter what level you are in watercolor.

Don't forget to enjoy it with a cup of warm tea!!!

Never forget to have fun like Van Gogh did!

“Paintings have a life of their own that derives from the painter’s soul”-Vincent Van Gogh

Enjoy the process,

Miwa
