Simply watercolor class (Day 4)

Hi guys! I am back for another day of Kristina Werner’s Simply watercolor class.  I was super excited for this class because I wanted to play around making starry night skies or galaxies.

Day 4: Landscapes and Nature

First lesson: Simple landscape

Here I had a trouble with the washi tape I used to mark off the border of my landscape and the colors leaked creating blurry borders. I didn’t like it so I cut off my landscape and adhered it to a card front.

Second lesson: Starry Sky

Here is my blue-green starry sky, which I love!! I can believe how good it came out. The key was to make sure the tape was well secured so the colors wouldn’t bleed underneath the tape.

I had so much fun, that I made a second starry sky.

I finished both of my skies using border stamps from Pinkfresh studio.
