Here's something to take away a little of the stress and anxiety in our world. Easy for children and adults, with no painting skills required, but with watercolor master results! 🖌 • Paint an entire sheet of watercolor paper (I used 9" x 12") with a variety of your favorite colors. I used granulating ones for lots of texture. • Tilt and turn the paper so the colors run and mix with each other. Lay flat to dry. • Lightly draw in your shapes (fish, kitties, cacti etc) with a white pencil. I used a white charcoal pencil as you can just wipe it off if you make a mistake. • With white paint that is not too wet or runny, paint around the outlines of your shapes. If it's too wet, then it may reactivate the watercolor paint underneath. Sometimes a quick spray of sealer or matt varnish is helpful before you start this step. 2 coats of the white may be necessary in places. • Using a white gel pen, draw in all the details. • Enjoy! 🖌 🐟🐠
Here's a simple way to create & "garden" if you're inside self-isolating, home schooling, or just wanting to increase your indoor plant collection in a fun and cheap way! No need for lots expensive materials, I've just used scraps of paper/card and soft pencils that layer easily. These are a 12 set by @blackwing. They're very creamy and glide smoothly across the paper. Stay safe everyone! 🖤
If you enjoy video tutorials, I have a series where I teach you my Wet in Wet watercolor technique over at @miroom_official 🖌.

Another free colouring piece for you, created from one of my paintings. Made with pigment inks from @artspectrum.com.au on watercolour paper from @arches.art. Then a time lapse video of the Colouring Page creation, using the fineliner brush (and lots of erasing!) on iPad with @procreate. If you laser print it on thin watercolor paper you can paint it with watercolors/inks as well. I'll upload it now to my Facebook Group- Cindy Lane Art Downloads (link in bio 👆) 🎶Float by Emily A Sprague
Spot the 20 creatures! Not including the butterflies, there are 20 critters hidden amongst the foliage frame. Add some color, then use as a frame, a wipe-clean noticeboard (laminate or cover in Contact first), notepaper or whatever you like! I created this a while ago as part of an educational package for use in early childhood learning. If you and your children are feeling a little anxious or scared in these difficult times, I can highly recommend colouring as a way to take your mind to a happier place 🖍 ✏️😊 I've just uploaded this free PDF to my Facebook Group Cindy Lane Downloads (link in bio) Happy coloring!
I'll be painting more sea turtles tomorrow, using watercolors made from crushed gemstones Hematite, Bloodstone and Burnt Tigers Eye, all by @danielsmithartistsmaterials 🖌 I hope everyone is able to keep creating in some way during these unsettling times 💙 🎶 Lament (Golden Light) by Devon Church
