Hi everyone! I hope that you are doing well and safe. Yesterday, I made some flower and plant doodles using watercolour and glitter pens. I thought that they turned out cute and colourful so I though of sharing it here.

Tools and Materials


  • Buncho Watercolour
  • A waterbrush
  • A black gel pen
  • Glitter pens in various colours
  • A sheet of printer paper

Method

I used many colours and just painted a few rectangles in watercolour. I mixed some of the colours to create a gradient effect. It was a fun experimentation.

I did not plan this artwork and just did it randomly as I wanted to play around with my watercolour. I didn't even use a proper watercolour paper and just used a sheet of printer paper instead. This is actually the excess of a printer paper where I have already used half of it for something else.

I kept the drawings simple. I just used a black gel pen to create them in each of the rectangles.

I used a few colours for this plant, which are red, orange, yellow and gold. I tried to blend some of them but the blending was not going well.

After the 'test pattern', I did more drawings on all the other paint rectangles using the same black gel pen. Some were large leaves, some flowers and a few were just branches to which I will be adding some petal bulbs using gel pens.

I coloured in all of the drawings using glitter pens. I think that they look a lot better with a pop of colour now.

This is a closer look of the top half of the drawings.

Here's the bottom half of the drawings. I think they look better when they are up close because the drawings look bigger. I plan on cutting each of them and then using them as stickers on my planner and journal.

Nice. if you make them separate on each page then you can make them like painting frames
