Paint an Easy Christmas Candy Cane with Watercolor [ Line Art Template Included] (Skillshare)

Offered by Skillshare,

Do you want to learn how to paint a Christmas candy cane , but you don’t have much experience with watercolors? Hi, I’m Eliza, the Watercolor Witch and I now serve more than 4600 watercolor students all around the globe. I created this class directly to watercolor beginners. So if you are a newbie watercolorist, don’t worry, if you take this class you will have tons of fun with it, moreover I’m here to help if you have any questions.

In the class I’m going to talk about:

How to paint the candy cane decoration from a-z

-My best methods for creating lovely vibrant holly leaves and berries
-How to make your painting more 3D

While in other classes you need to sketch the project yourself, in this beginner-friendly class I included a downloadable line art template, so you can spare yourself from the dissappointment of a messed up line drawing.
There is nothing to risk, here all you need to do is enjoy the painting process!
So it’s time to take action!
Grab your brushes and start painting now!
See you in the class!
P.s If you want to improve your watercolor skills easily and in an instant, I’d recommend you to take my "Super Easy Watercolor" class series.
Each class is enjoyable on it's own and covers one topic from zero to finish, but if you want the best result I'd recommend to take your time and watch them all.
