Welcome to Lettering & Watercoloring with Brush Pens0:37
Welcome to my course! Grab your favorite beverage and enjoy learning some new watercoloring skills.
I've made these videos short and to the point because I value your time! You will be able to start watercoloring using brush pens in no time. I love that the videos are broken down in small sections so you can go back and watch individual techniques with ease.
I've included a list of supplies needed in the next video. Look under resources to find a PDF copy of the supply list and sample cards for you to trace and refer back to.
As you make your way through the skills learned in class be sure to complete each section so you receive your certificate at the end. Yay! So thankful you are enrolled in the class. Have fun!
