Painting Fruits & Florals in Watercolor with a Modern Twist

This is beautiful, Marcy! I love how you stylized the watermelon seeds into small triangles– super cute! Also, fabulous job on the watercolor blooms within the hibiscus petals themselves. Love that effect!Thank you for sharing. : )Best, Cat

Thanks so much to taking time to leave me some love Cat! I see I forgot to erase my pencil line before I snapped the photo.

I received an email from Skillshare complimenting my work and asking if I’d like to create a Skillshare class! I had just done a search on how to teach on Skillshare the day before. Seems the stars aligned. ;-)

I’d love to know the brand of paper you use. The watermelon was done on Arches and I’m not a fan of how that handles the watercolor. Plus it’s a cream-ish color. I switched to Canson which is a brighter white but it’s still lacking. I’m going to try Strathmore next. I’m on a quest!
