Necessities: Watercolor paper, paint, 1 brush, and 1 pen. You can get away with spending about $32. Not bad, huh?

1. Watercolor Paper: https://www.amazon.com/Strathmore-298-103-Watercolor-Bound-Sheets/dp/B000KNNVYO/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1549313030&sr=8-2&keywords=watercolor+paper

2. Watercolor Paint: https://www.amazon.com/Staedtler-Learning-Development-8880-C24A6/dp/B00YZ3H68C

3. Watercolor Brushes: https://www.amazon.com/Grace-Water-Color-Brush-WS12/dp/B01IQFDF98

(You could probably go to an art/craft store and buy a single brush. Go for a large round brush if you do. Great versatility, holds more water, still allows for details).

4. Pen: https://www.amazon.com/Pilot-25001-Precision-Technology-Skip-Free/dp/B00347A8C6/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1549313254&sr=8-3&keywords=pilot+precise+v5+2+pack

Extra supplies lying around your house: 

*wooden board/clipboard

*plate or empty egg carton instead of buying a paint tray

*masking tape

Got your supplies? You’re ready to watch the short tutorial and paint like a pro:

I really love doing these abstract watercolor inkings because they remind me of stained glass. They’re also a fun project for kids 🙂
