Autumn watercolor with colored pencil shading detail.

July 17, 2019 - by Gaylynn

Autumn watercolor with colored pencil shading detail.

Hello.  It’s Gaylynn here with another installment of my Watercolor Wednesday series.
Today, I have an Autumn card using watercolor with colored pencil shading.

With a combination of techniques, this card came to life.  I used watercolor first, stamped and then added pencil shading.  This process of watercolor with colored pencil shading is becoming a favorite of mine.

Sentiment:
Faith sees a beautiful blossom in a bulb,
a lovely garden in a seed
and a giant oak in an acorn.
William Arthur Ward

Helpful tips:

I added layers of watercolor onto the smooth side of a die-cut watercolor paper layer.  Once dried, I stamped over it.  The acorns were colored with more watercolor and then shaded with colored pencil.

And one more:

As a bonus, I made a video tutorial for this project.  It will detail the full process.

To view my other watercolor projects on the Unity blog, see Watercolor Wednesday.

Tune in next Wednesday with a new project for Unity’s Watercolor Wednesday.
Thanks for visiting.  Have a wonderful day.
