🎃 Pumpkin Quick Watercolor Sketch (Patreon)

A new extra tutorial has just been added to the library!

Let’s paint a bright and cozy pumpkin in this quick and easy watercolor lesson!

This simple project is perfect for beginners or for those days when you only have a few minutes to paint. We’ll start with a basic oval shape, gradually build the pumpkin with curved segments, and let warm orange colors softly blend together to create depth and volume.

In this lesson, you’ll practice:• Building a pumpkin from simple oval shapes• Blending different shades of orange while the paint is still wet• Creating depth with simple shadows• Painting a loose leaf, stem, and little curl• Adding expressive splashes for a playful watercolor effect• Finishing your sketch with loose fineliner details and white highlights

No complicated drawing skills are needed. Grab your watercolor supplies and enjoy a little autumn painting session with me! 🎃🍂
