Draw Tip Tuesdays - Watercolor Frames

Welcome to Draw Tip Tuesday! Today, I have something simple and fun for us. We'll start making some marks on the page with a watercolor wash, so they become like colorful frames. And then we can draw on top. When mixing the colors, it's a great opportunity to get to know your watercolors: do you like them more pigmented or watered down? What is the effect and how can you use it to your benefit? The colorful frames will give you a great starting point to draw (anything!), and when you ever experience "fear of the blank page," this could be a simple distraction for your inner critic.
