World Watercolor Month...!

Well, I'm late to the game...because apparently July is World Watercolor Month?? How did I miss this? Better late than never, I guess. So to celebrate this wonderful Watercolor Month....here are my FAVORITE Watercolor techniques & my go-to Brushes:

Techniques:
- Layering - just looooveee the transparent nature of watercolor and that I get to layer colors on top of each other. 
- Scumbling - I literally use this technique in every single painting. I feel like it's a Watercolor Hack technique. So handy with landscape & nature.
-  Lifting - so helpful to be able to lift paint when needed. You can't really do that with any other paint.
Honestly I love it all, but those are my top 3!
Brushes:
- Mop Brush - can't live without it. It holds water the best and is my flat wash pro helper
- Round Brush - it's just a must have and works well for techniques like scumbling
- Fine Tip Round Brush - I love my little details so this brush is absolutely needed.

Well, that's it! I couldn't let the month end without acknowledging World Watercolor Month and the fact that it exists. All the hearts. 
Bye for now, friends!
