Playful Watercolor Pattern Making | Warm Colors + Mixed Media
I’m continuing my Pattern Journal series with a warm, playful page full of loose watercolor blooms, overlapping shapes, and lots of little marks layered on top. I started with my Masha’s watercolors in a palette of coral, rust, mustard, magenta, berry, and plum, letting the colors mingle and create their own soft edges before adding dots, stripes, outlines, and other mixed media details. I love how the repeated shapes start to feel like a pattern without becoming too controlled, and how the tiny marks bring so much energy and personality back into the watercolor. This whole series is becoming such a fun exploration of color, repetition, texture, and letting the page evolve as I go. Supplies used: 🖌️ Looking for the supplies I used?
