  • Hey guys!
    In this video, I will show you how to create easy watercolour lemons in a loose watercolor style.
    As a part of my new series, I'll be sharing some fun summer watercolor ideas and thought the perfect place to start was with some watercolor fruit.
    Using the wed on wet watercolor technique, you'll learn how to paint fruit in this step by step watercolour tutorial for beginners.
    I hope you like it and can't wait to see you in the next one!

      I would love to see a summer Flamingo, please. Flamingos always remind me of tropical summer days at the beach. #book

    I love the way you loosely painted these. I could almost smell them when you were painting! 😂

    I like. Quite different making the edges bleed out. I like the splatters.

    One word comes to mind when I see your summer wc series: FRESH! Well done, Dana. I have your new brushes, of course, which makes all of this beauty possible. They're SO girly! I love them...

    Loved both lemons equally! Beach scenes are a fun summer theme. Bright color is everywhere here in Florida, especially the flowers.

    Thankyou for verbalizing what you are doing. So many of the tutorials being put up are almost useless because all the student does is follow along trying to devine what the instructor is doing while music is played in the background. Hope you continue to put up more videos like this one. Thanks again.

      Robert G thanks for the comment! Whenever I can, I do try to clearly explain what I’m doing in my tutorials so I am so glad you appreciate that!

    I liked this style, but didn't know how to do it, when color comes out of the edges. With this video it's appeared very simple to understand. Very pleasant and useful video! I like how clear you explain what you are doing. Thanks a lot! #emailcrew
