From the initial inspiration and setup to the final touches of lettering and shadow accents, each lesson is structured to enhance your watercolor skills and creativity. Whether you're a beginner to watercolor painting on the iPad or looking to add new techniques to your repertoire, this class will guide you through the process of creating a unique and appealing greeting card ready for your use or for POD sites like Cardisle.

In this class I will walk you through:

• stencil creation in Procreate to receive all the watercolour techniques
• creating an authentic watercolor look in Procreate
• adding unique elements to watercolor paintings
• advanced watercolor blending

The key concepts I will include:

• mastering the use of realistic watercolor mops and blends to achieve natural and appealing watercolor pooling and blending effects
• adding texture to watercolor paintings and using edge pool techniques, including the Gaussian blur method for dark edges and salt application for a distinctive and authentic finish
• finishing with a white ink line art and lettering

With the ink drawing, I show you techniques for using white ink effectively in creating an authentic and organic drawing. I will be including pen pressure adjustment information for varied line thickness and flourishes. This method makes it easy!

With the lettering, we will be creating shadows using methods you may already be familiar with from other classes. Finally, we will be adding detailing accents with a variable dots brush (included) for a dynamic visual effect.
