I painted this cabin in the woods in my small watercolor art journal. I intended it to be a winter scene, but the colors on the trees this October have been amazing! Therefore, it switched to being an fall art piece. Be sure to use pens that won't smudge with wet media! It's a rather rough sketch, but it was fun to try a house from a different angle. ...

Mini Art Journal Mixed Media Floral

You can try out products and techniques, as well as painting a "dry run" of something before committing to your expensive paper. This time, I started with the leaves. The flower is a bit clunky for me, but adding the posca paint pens gives it a fun look. VIDEO HERE ... View the Post
