Watercolor is such a versatile medium, you can paint lovely illustrations, dreamy landscapes or loose flowers, anything you can think of!

But what about something new?

Try this fun technique to create interesting stained glass look, or mosaic effect, using watercolor and a dip pen (or anything else sharp enough to scratch the surface of the paper).

In this class I am going to guide you through this technique step by step, and as a result, you will have two lovely artworks: gentle blue flowers with white details and juicy red apples.

The class is beginners friendly, but I hope it could be fun and interesting for people of any level of experience 🙂

Here you can find the list of the materials:

We are going to paint two paintings together: Blue Flowers and Red Apples. For both paintings we are using limited color palette of 4 different colors.

We are going to play with the intensity of colors and work in layers to create that lovely mosaic, or stained glass effect. You can also add a little watercolor frame to your artwork to emphasize the stained glass look, but it is completely optional.

There is one more painting I show in the class, that one is in my sketchbook and features some cute red wild poppies and a similar blue flower to those we paint together, feel free to try that one, too! The process is the same 🙂
