You made a very point about using ink drawings in watercolor to help take some of that pressure off! As a beginner, I’m moving between thinking about color and brush size and water control and dryness of paper and the actual shape of everything-yikes-overload! I’ve recently realized these decisions make me work faster than I should, and the image suffers. But now I understand, and I’ve got a better approach, I think, by drawing first, and then enjoying the uniqueness of watercolor paints as I color my drawing. Thank you for taking the time to share your process.

You're so welcome and I hope you've been enjoying your painting practice :)
I would like to see more ink and wash tutorials. That's my preference.
Thanks for your feedback! I’m sure there will be more of those here because I love that approach.
Love this!!
Thanks, Kristin!
Beutifull...but next time paint the red flowers before the green bush.
Great advice - I should try that next time!
