🍁 Autumn Bucket List Watercolor Sketch Tutorial (Patreon)

In this cozy lesson, we’ll create an autumn bucket list sketch — a page filled with little seasonal treasures like a glowing lantern, warm tea, mushrooms, pumpkin pie, and golden leaves. These references were chosen by you in our recent vote, and I’m so happy to bring them all together in this lesson!

Step by step, we’ll explore:🎨 how to draw several small objects and arrange them into one balanced sketch☕ how to keep your watercolor light and fresh while adding cozy details with a liner🍂 how to combine warm and earthy autumn colors for a harmonious palette✨ how to add small details to bring the whole page to life

This lesson is perfect for beginners and anyone who wants to capture the cozy mood of autumn in their sketchbook. By the end, you’ll have a charming seasonal page that feels like a little autumn diary on paper.
