Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Use masking tape to secure the watercolor paper to a flat surface, creating a border around the edges.
2. Lightly sketch a simple landscape design with pencil, including rolling hills, trees, and flowers.
3. Start with the sky: wet the area with a clean brush, then add a light blue wash, allowing the colors to blend.
4. Once the sky is dry, paint the hills using green shades, varying the color to add depth.
5. For the trees, use a dark green for the foliage and a brown for the trunks, layering the colors for texture.
6. Add flowers by dabbing small dots of color on the hills, using bright and cheerful shades.
7. Let the painting dry completely before removing the masking tape for a clean border.
8. Optional: Use black ink or a fine brush to outline elements for a whimsical effect.
