Get out your watercolors and have fun painting a Christmas wreath with this step by step tutorial! This wreath is simpler to paint than it looks and I broke it down into easy steps. I'll show you how to paint a few different kinds of leaves, mix up the paint colors, and we'll add some extra details with gel pens!

In the short video I first posted of this wreath painting, I used a Sakura Koi waterbrush (https://amzn.to/41eBOhA) because that’s what I had nearby, but I much prefer painting with real brushes so that’s what I used in this tutorial :)
