Watercolor Techniques - Layered Leaves

Layering can be tough with watercolor. It’s hard to know exactly what to paint first and there isn’t really a way to “undo” something once it’s on the paper. However, layering (or the illusion of layering) is such a beautiful effect, especially when painting florals. I love the look of layered leaves in my bouquets and wreaths. Here is a quick video showing you three ways to layer leaves in watercolor. I hope you’ll give it a try! If you share your work on Instagram, tag me @sweetseasonsart so I can story it! Happy painting!
