We recently went on a road trip that was eight hours round trip. I had the bright idea to paint cards using supplies that wouldn't involve much effort to work with while riding in the car.
Here's what I brought along that all fit in my purse:
Aquarelle Watercolor Pencils
Faber-Castell Water Brush Pen
Strathmore 5x7 Watercolor paper
.3 Copic Multi Liner Black

All of the flowers were free hand painted first. When dry, I decided to doodle them. The flowers were just silly shapes that I just made up as I went along.
My process for applying paint to paper was to swipe the wet tip of the water brush over the tip of the pencil until I had picked up sufficient color and then colored each flower, leaves and stems. Sometimes I created a flower shape with the clean water brush first and then brought in paint from the pencil. The overall splatters were created once I got back home to my craft room space.
It was so much fun having simple supplies to work with and made the long ride so enjoyable.
Thanks for stopping by!
