Welcome to the Front Porch!
Let’s push paint around together and bring color to our lives again!
Porch Rules
Amateurs ONLY
Say goodbye to perfection
Welcome messes and mistakes
What do I need to get started?
- Choose a favorite nature find such as a fresh picked flower or leaf.
- Watercolor notebook or journal
- Watercolor paints & paint brush
- Jar or spray bottle for water
- Paper towel
Need help shopping?
I found my watercolor journal on sale at hobby lobby. I use Winsor & Newton Cotman sketcher’s pocket set 13 PC that comes with an adorable tiny paint brush. I prefer various brushes found at hobby lobby.
So, what’s next?
- Gather your supplies to bring to a quiet location.
- Carefully observe the colors of your nature find.
- Experiment with color mixing until you match all the colors of your chosen object.
- Write your own or copy meaningful words on your color page.
