Fearless Friday, Easy Watercolor Autumn Tree
I promise you don’t have to be an artist
to paint a colorful Autumn tree!
Water will do the painting for you!
Paint an abstract tree shape with clear water
on watercolor or mixed media paper
Drop in a golden yellow and let it bleed freely
Continue with a lime green, orange, and red
Let it dry and add more dots of color suggesting leaves
Paint the tree trunk and suggest limbs
with small strokes in a few places in the leaves
Once the paint is dry, go back with a fine liner pen to add detail~
It’s a few lines and squiggles
And to finish,
Suggest leaves on the ground with the same colors
Have fun with watercolor and
Be Fearless!

Thanks so much Nancy! Have a wonderful weekend and Thanksgiving week!
You make it sound easy, and I might could do it up to the fine line part. There I think I would mess it up in spite of your great tutorial.
Thank you Linda, watercolor is fun to experiment with…
