Chiara at One O has been “loving watercolor graphics for a while now,” but didn’t think of herself as an artist who could take on a watercolor craft. A wooden box she received as a wedding gift gave her the courage to grab a brush and have a go!
Chiara prepped the wood by soaking the surface with a damp sponge. She started painting lines of color from the bottom up, using black and white paint mixed in with her blue to create the dark-to-light effect. She repeated this technique on all four sides. Chiara is happy with her first attempt and says “the result looks pretty good to me.” I think she’s being way too modest here-this looks great!
