I want to show you how to turn a photograph into an ink and watercolor sketch.  I’ll show you:

• how I create an ink drawing of a photograph in Procreate.
• how to paint over the ink drawing with watercolors to create an effect that looks like real pigment on paper.
• how I use lightening and darkening methods to create variation that mimics real watercolor paints.

You don’t have to be good at drawing to take this class!  I’ll show you how to trace over a photograph, so you don’t have to worry about learning how to draw perspective or proportions.  Although if you love to draw by hand rather than tracing, you could certainly do that with this same technique.

This process will give you a great way to preserve a memory of a trip, or you could create a gift for someone that turns a picture of their home or neighborhood into a watercolor painting.
