    8 ideas to get you started in watercolors

    Start painting with simple, relaxing and colorful projects. Watercolor is one of the most versatile and accessible techniques to get you started in illustration. Here are 8 easy ideas to get you started in watercolor, lose your fear of the brush and discover everything you can express with this technique. [Simple flowers 2.] Draw basic flowers like daisies, tulips or lavender. They are perfect for practicing soft shapes, color mixtures and loose brushstrokes. They are also very decorative and always nice to paint. 2. Fruits and vegetables. Start with simple pieces such as lemons, strawberries or carrots. Their organic shapes and vivid colors will help you practice gradients, light and shadow. 3. Skies at sunset. Color transitions in the sky are ideal for learning to blur and control water. Add silhouettes of mountains or trees to create a simple but striking composition.
