Watercolours with Palette knife

Love this simple way to do palette knife trees in watercolours. Beginners will too!

Dampen the paper where the trunk will be, then just glide the knife into the dampness.

Change knives to add a different colour into the trunk, let it run a bit and use a finger to smudge and merge the colours a little bit.

I used a limited palette: Daniel Smith Quinacridone Sienna, Cobalt Teal, Winsor Lemon. Simple and fun.

The act of creation, in any media is a fascinating and magical process. I simply love to create. Expressing in color, line, tone, texture - as if, they were words upon a page. Creating a uniquely me, interpretation. Enjoy More of my "one-of-a-kind" expressive art at society6.com/debiriley and, redbubble.com/people/debijriley/shop View more posts
