Watercolour, oil pastel and marker artwork
#v17010
Make colourful floral designs on both white and black watercolour paper. Create beautiful, fluid transitions with watercolours, add depth and texture with oil pastels and for the finishing touch, use a marker to highlight the details. The designs don't have to be perfect, but can have a slightly random look.
