Watercolor Greeting Cards

Online Art Instruction with Andrea Merican

Call me old fashioned, but I still love the joy of receiving birthday cards, holiday cards and any kind of greeting cards.

 

This is a casual and fun class where we will create hand painted greeting cards together.

 

You can use a variety of mediums, depending on what supplies you have at home, but I will be focusing on using watercolor.

 

I will teach you to paint 2 different cards. One is very simple and more abstract and the other is a more realistic image. You get to decide whatever cards you want to create. Use my instruction simply as a guide.

 

I can’t even tell you how many compliments I receive when I give someone a hand painted card. It is literally a work of art made just for them.
