Thank you to all my followers for bearing with me while I've not been well! I'm taking a step away from my Edinburgh inspired series of art tutorials to bring you a simple project of watercolour hearts that I'm using to ease myself back into painting. I hope this project can do the same for you if it's a while since you've painted or if you're feeling in need of some calming watercolour blending and pattern making!

Windsor and Newton Professional Watercolours in Potter's Pink, Quinacridone Magenta, Raw Sienna.

I just discovered your channel and now I'm a new subscriber. I'm 70 yrs old and decided to rediscover watercolor painting. I haven't painted with watercolor for over 50 yrs. This is a lovely tutorial and I'm anxious to give it a go. Thank you very much for sharing your talent!

I hope you’re feeling better soon! Love these card ideas, they look perfect for an evening when I’m too tired to do anything “intense” but feel like painting 😊.

It's the uni-ball signo gel pen in broad for the white pen, and a uni-pin fineliner. I've added links to the description.
