Watercolor Tutorial: Strawberry Doodle // New Skillshare Class

Hi guys! So I recently launched a new skilshare class on how to paint realistic strawberries without using reference. And I thought I'd make a simpler version of it here with less steps and something more approachable for everyone.

This class is probably one of the harder classes that I have made, and it does require a bit of knowledge and background, but either way, I still tried to break down the information as detailed as possible so hopefully a lot of you are able to follow through. The steps that I made for this one was so difficult for me to figure out and explain, so I hope you guys will check it out, and enjoy the class as well as this video.

Happy painting everyone!

This is so nice. Really nice capturing the shine of strawberry.

Absolutely fascinating! I would never have thought ORANGE was in the mix of layers! The white areas are just stunning as they lend to the illusion of both highlighted shininess of the strawberry as well as a look of wetness. This was VERY informative & I want to try this exercise myself to see if I can get the same results! Thanks so much for sharing!!! :D

This is so vibrant and lovely. I'm so glad YouTube decided to put it in my suggested side bar, I'm so happy to discover your beautiful work :)

'Strawberry Doodle', sounds like a mouth watering desert. You should patent that. Your strawberries look delicious also.

Loved this! It’s so fun to watch a flat drawing “become” a dimensional painting by using shading and negative space. Thank you. I really want to improve on painting curved and curled leaves. Your are wonderful here!

What a beautiful little collection of strawberries. I can tell that this will be a lot of fun to create. Thank you, especially, for adding that extra touch to the splatter area with the deliberately-placed and blotted-up spots. That's a really nice new tool for the visual-interest toolbox.
