Autumn painting - fall leaves with watercolor!

Watch the Preview Here

I know that realistic paintings can be intimidating for many watercolorists.
So, I've decided to jump in with the details for you in this new Fall course.
We will bring the whole process together with layers and layers, taking your basic paintings (where many of us tending to stop) to the next level creating a more realistic watercolor.

This class starts out for beginners but in the end we will complete a very realistic Maple leaf.
I walk you through my steps so even if you are a beginner, I know you can do this one.

So we are going into details in this course! 

   WHAT YOU WILL DISCOVER IN THIS COURSE:

• Create a simple Color chart with fall colors.
• Learn to expand on those colors by adding a Glaze to create more shades and depth.
• Paint a simple wet in wet leaf by dropping in colors.
• Dive a little deeper with glazes and create some more realistic details.
• Practice with pen and ink for quick results, perfect for cards or adding some little touches to your paintings.
• For our final project we will create this realistic Maple Leaf using all these techniques plus a touch of little watercolor pencil for extra fine details!

**IF YOU SIGN UP SOON you will receive this BONUS ALCOHOL INK LEAF LECTURE FOR FREE!

Are you ready for the next step of realism?
If you said yes, then let's jump in.

Don't dare to try Resin because of a Blow Torch?

I know some of you are interested in the Resin Course but may be a bit scared to try resin because of the Blow Torch. 

I use this simple little butane refillable torch - it's a bit like a lighter but with more power!

We had a few friends over the other night for a Fire Pit and I pulled out my little torch to start the fire and my friends hubby was like - "What's that, I need one!" 

ONLINE ZEN DISK RESIN COURSE - Sale $25 Reg $50

They are pretty simple to use and refillable, but if it makes you a bit nervous you can always use one of those long reach lighters.

Free Demo on Youtube - Acrylic Painting Busy Bee

Here's a painting I recently did for a fundraiser. Since I don't have an acrylic course set up online yet I was curious if there was some interest out there for some? 

I would love to have you follow along and paint with me. I've added some text for you to follow along, and some music, but feel free to turn it off or down if you feel it distracts you. Some parts have been sped up as not to bore you with repetitive strokes, but I think you'll get the idea! 

FREE Demo (Link Below - oh and Don't forget to click the SUBSCRIBE button)!  

I'll cover all the materials in the video and I've added a Material List with links for you below. Remember feel free to choose your own color pallet, and if you have other acrylic paints, brushes, or smaller canvas those will work. 


Creating the petals to the flowers is easier than you may think. You can see that my base is painted in with purples but when I add the white see how the brush strokes change down in the front going horizontal instead of vertical. That will give the appearance of your petals turning upwards. 

Here is what you'll need to get started.

Busy Bee Acrylic Painting Materials:

• 16x20" Primed Stretched Canvas

• Brushes - Large Flat 1" and Small Flat 1/4" plus a small round size 3 detail brush with a point.
• Acrylic Paints - Colors Purple, White, Black, and Yellow.
• Easel - optional (I worked with a flat canvas).
• Mixing Tray or  paper plate for paints
• 1 container for water to clean brushes
• Paper Towels
• Gloves
• Apron

Turn your paintings into a Flag!

I was playing around with Photoshop and one of my alcohol Ink paintings and I thought this would make a lovely Flag, but then I couldn't find a place that could do it until now.

I found a site called Gifts For You Now - now mind you I haven't ordered it yet, but after looking at the reviews it looks like it's a solid flag. Here is the information if you would like to try it out and please post a photo or email me, I would love to see yours and hear what you think!

If you are new to alcohol Inks and don't know what this AMAZING colorful medium is then please check out my online classes...but I"ll warn you, they are addicting! I currently have over 1600 student online plus I've taught thousands in Live classes.
