Karen Campbell's newest book is out! It's from her Whimsical Watercolor and How to Draw Series. "Happy Hooses" is her 5th book in the series. My copy hasn't arrived yet, but Karen offered a tutorial on painting one of the houses in the book, along with a coloring page of that house.
I transferred that house onto my Fabriano 140 lb. hot press paper and outlined the house with a Molotow Blackliner. I painted the house with Winsor Newton watercolors. In addition, I used a Prismacolor pencil to darken some areas and a Uni-ball Signo Pen for white highlights. I watched Karen's video tutorial and the following I tried my hand at painting my own version.
After my copy of the book arrives I will be drawing and painting my own versions of each house, I can't wait!
