Hi watercolor fans! We have another great release for you. I created this Peaceful Gull scene for you today!
Step 1 : The Posts
Ink the large post with 969, I added some 569 to the ropes. I didn’t stamp it off because I wanted it to be really dark. Next, stamp the smaller posts behind and to the right of the first. Pull the color out of the lines and add a little more color to the darkest areas.
Step 2: The Seagull
I inked up the seagull with 569 and 969, and stamped it off. Using my positioner, I placed him on top of the post. I pulled the color out of the lines just where the shadows would be (he’s white 😊).
Step 3: The Water
Using a few different blues, I layered the water. To create waves I left some areas white, darkening the blue under them. You can use squiggle lines to create ripples. I added some brown to the right bottoms of the posts for a reflection.
Step 4: The Sky
Using a really light wash of blue, just push the color around to create clouds. Continue to add darker colors in areas to create depth.
Lastly, sign and date.
I am so in love with this new release. It’s going to be a stellar card making year! Thank you so much for stopping by today, I hope you have a great weekend. Remember to tag us on social media so we can see what you come up with! Happy crafting!
