👉 My downloadable outline sketch is available here: patreon.com/posts/chocolate-chip-141587270
In this new tutorial, I take you through my complete process for painting a stack of delicious chocolate chip cookies in watercolor, from the initial pencil sketch, to building depth and detail through layering paint. 👩🎨
This project is perfect for beginners wanting to strengthen core watercolor techniques like wet-on-wet, wet-on-dry, saving highlights, and layering for depth, as well as for more experienced artists looking to stay consistent with their practice and refine their process.
We’ll focus especially on how to create realism and depth without overworking, so your painting keeps that beautiful watercolor glow.
I hope you enjoy this one and find it super helpful. If you have any questions, feel free to leave them in the comments below. 💙
