Andrea - A Dream Or A Day Art

Page 9 of the 2025 practice book and it’s a crafty one! Please note that some tissue paper bleeds when it gets wet, so check first. That said, I think the bleeding tissue paper actually makes a really cool effect. It’s just different! And as I mentioned, I typically have done this on canvas, but the book worked great. Just don’t drench it with water. And because I know some of you are going to question why not glue first, you get a smoother finish starting with water. Plus you can move stuff around if you don’t like the placement and get it just like you want it before gluing.

Supplies listed below - always 😊 This is page 20 of the practice book! We’ve made so much art! I think trusting yourself to paint in a way that isn’t trying to copy something from real life comes as you become more comfortable with the medium. If you’re not there yet, that’s okay! Just keep painting!

I can’t stress enough how helpful this book will be if you want to learn to paint in watercolor! “Learn To Watercolor: 20 step-by-step beginner-friendly lessons on watercolor paper” by Lacey Walker @Lacey - Curious Watercolor&Art .

⭐️ This was NOT a practice book page! @Lacey - Curious Watercolor&Art and I filled a whole homemade sketchbook while she visited, and we made up specific activities for each page. This was an art experiment that we thought would use watercolor in the tube but actually worked a lot better with fluid acrylics. The result turned out so fun and more experimenting is definitely in order! If you want to see more pages from the book, there’s a video on my Patreon page http://patreon.com/andreanelson

The key to using someone else’s work as inspiration for your own is to pick out the bits that inspire you and then turn it into your own idea. There is a full sketchbook tour of this book on my Patreon page. Please check out @katie_moody @makewells, and @emmablockillustration . Megan’s book Funky Florals and Emma’s book Keeping A Creative Sketchbook are on my Amazon page and Katie has a sketchbook book coming out in March that I am super excited for! The Art Annotated book is also on my Amazon page. @better_day_books #sketchbookideas #artideas #artbooks
