This week Stacy is our hostess, and she is featuring Debbie Hughes aka Limedoodle. What kind of watercolors do you use? Pan, tube, pencils, crayons. I bought tubes and filled pans with various colors. I also bought pans already poured. When using tubes you can waste some paint, and Debbie shows us how to avoid doing just that. We are painting a rich dark cup of coffee this week. Actually just using two colors plus the white. I sketched the cup and saucer, and painted following the video. To make the coffee rings used the bottom of my nova bottle and dipped it into the paint. Sponged around the first layer and popped it up with foam tape. Made a background paper with splattering and more coffee rings. Put the layers onto the brown card base. TFL Come join us for a nice hot rich cup of java.

Love seeing your watercolor works, Linda! I'm taken with how rich this coffee seems to be, and practically aromatic! Yes ... morning coffee is a basic must for me. lol

This is mouthwateringly GOOD! Beautiful water color and inspired by your sketch and splatters and spills. Lovely in every way.
