Welcome to Draw Tip Tuesday!

Today we’ll use water, watercolors, a brush and a sharpie.
In case you forgot to send someone a holiday card, don’t panic! It’s simple to make one yourself!

Pick some green watercolor paint from your palette and throw it onto the paper. Don’t think about it too much. It’ll become a christmas tree later - or something else if you want to!

While the paint dries, write down your message. It could be a holiday wish, a little note or poem, a quote. Then you can paint the letters - I use the opposite color of green; red. It’s nice and contrasting and these two colors happen to be christmas colors as well. I make a smooth transition by adding a bit of water to the paint. The red and white striped letters remind of those festive little christmas canes you can decorate a christmas tree with.

You can draw a frame around it to pull everything together.
Now that the paint has dried you can draw the outline of the tree if you want, and decorate it - simple circles will represent balls, but of course you can add a lot more if you like - depending on how much time you want to spend.

Speaking of christmas decorations: see if you can think of other holiday related shapes to paint.
You could do an endless range of personalize christmas cards this way!

Whatever you do, you will make awesome art.

Best wishes from me to you… happy holidays!
