Watercolor Painting Candles, Lights and Fir Leaves - Winter Holiday Christmas New Year Card Ideas

A little painting of three red candles glowing with blinking fairy lights in the background and some fir leaves. I used some masking fluid, it can be skipped, and instead simply keep the area around the flames unpainted. I show in this project an easy and fun way to create bokeh light effect! Beautiful ideas for handmade Winter, Christmas, Season's greetings, Holiday season and New Year cards.

Hi! It’s been a long time since I’ve had a chance to watch your videos or pick up a paint brush!! 😱 I’m hoping to do some watercolour Christmas cards and I especially like your ideas … I’m hoping what little knowledge I had hasn’t been totally lost from lack of use!!! 😳 My garden is finally done for the season and I can say I’m glad of it as it was a challenge keeping everything growing during a drought!! Work was also very busy as there was a big construction project to replace a lot of waterlines and as these projects go … there are usually surprises but not good ones!!! Anyway, I’m looking forward to catching up on watching your videos as they are always enjoyable and interesting!! I hope all is well with you these days!! 😀🌷🍁🪷🇨🇦

Hi, lovely to hear from you! 🤗 A huge work at your garden, and oh the construction project sounds like how construction works usually are, with the surprises! Great work and I hope now you'll have time to enjoy watercolor! Welcome back, thank you, hope all is well with you too! 💐😊💖
