I have a watercolor and ink floral to share today. Another painting that I set aside waiting for the right time to add a final layer of ink.
Happy Sunday, friends! π
A soft watercolor with happy colors sets the stage.
Big loose shapes painted on Arches hot press watercolor paper.
Hot press watercolor paper is smooth and has a nice surface for ink sketching. This paper works really well for this style of art.
I like the addition of ink for a little detail and unexpected doodles. The doodles are fun and just make me happy.πΒ There’s always a little risk when adding ink sketching on top but as long as I don’t overthink things or add too much ink, it usually works out well.
I hope you are inspired to create art and do more of what you love.
Until next time, share a smile and stay excellent!

Hi Patty, you always add the right balance of ink with your beautiful florals! π Not as easy as it looks I have discovered! I tend to add too many colors or patterns. I need to watch some of the art videos you suggested from Skill Share! πΌπΏπΈ
