Hello and welcome!

Last week on a gloomy, rainy day, I recorded a bird tutorial for you featuring a fun purple-blue bullfinch on a branch with berries. I think you’ll enjoy it. Want to paint with me?

Here’s what you can round up before you start the video:

SUPPLIES

• jar of water
• paper towel for blotting
• watercolor paints. I use this Sakura Koi set in the video.
• your favorite brushes (I like rounded brushes with tips like these*).
• paper: I am using this cheaper watercolor paper that I use for “funsy” projects, but you could use thick cardstock.
• printed template that you can download HERE.

THE VIDEO

I’d love to see what you create! Tag me in your bird pictures on Instagram or Facebook (@marydeandraws) so I can see!
