Peek into the Process: Watercolored Rose

I recently documented my watercolor processes for my new Workshop Zines (read: upgraded handouts!). Below are two step-by-step photos from the Botanical Watercolor module. The first is the wet-on-wet technique applied to a single petal, and the second is its application on an entire flower, petal by petal.
I’ve opened a new Botanical Watercolor Workshop class for August 16. (The other classes have already sold out!) You may sign up at bit.ly/WatercolorWorkshops πŸ™‚

Painted this variegated rose and added it to a garden pattern πŸ₯€ Mixed magenta, apricot, brick, and buff #LABhandmadewatercolors & a no.2 round brush for this piece. Took my time with each petal, and it felt like a little meditative activity. 🀍

It's a happy Saturday morning in my favorite spot in our garden. This area catches the bright morning sun, making all the plants super happy. 😁 Heliconia psittacorum are planted on the ground next to bamboo & palm. Hanging out in this corner inspired me to make a new heliconia ceramic palette shape, and I love how these turned out!😍

So excited to share my new design collab with @casajuanmnl! The collection features the Mabolo fruit (velvet apple) and flowers from the Kamagong tree, watercolored and printed on porcelain plates. Looking at these makes me want to plan the menu for a little gathering! πŸ§‘πŸ’š

A set includes four dinner plates, salad plates, and soup bowls, and they’re available at casajuan.ph 😁
