Description

In this Udemy course I will show you 8 different Christmas cards that are simple to paint and quick to do. They are all in different watercolor styles and I’ve included several ideas for variations on the theme and for further inspiration.

Each card is fun to paint, and I will show you some interesting special effects watercolor techniques as you do them. Each card has a unique painting style, which may help you in your general day-to-day watercolor painting, as well as creating distinct and unique handmade Christmas cards. All you need is some watercolor paper and a small set of colors.

So get ready to send your own individual handmade and hand-painted Christmas cards to those special people in your life. They will mean so much more than a shop bought mass produced card, or an e-card!

The 8 different styles of card have full written instructions to download, and videos to show you how they have been painted, so you can follow along easily. And it doesn’t matter if you have little painting experience - they are easy to do and very effective.
They are a great way to personalize Christmas, so why not sign up for this Udemy course right now!.
