Here's a fun, Halloween-themed watercolor workshop for beginners where I teach you how to draw and paint a glowing Jack O'Lantern.
This is a recording of a full class that I taught live for my Patreon community last week. It's a great opportunity to practice both your freehand sketching, as well as foundational watercolor techniques such as wet-on-wet, wet-on-dry, layering and color mixing.
I hope you find it helpful and, if you have any questions, feel free to leave them in the Comments below. 💙
