Creating Depth and Texture: Moody Abstracts in Watercolor, Gouache, and more

Welcome, art lovers! In this video, I embraced the Color Cube Palette Challenge, creating six captivating abstract artworks using watercolor, gouache, charcoal, and pastels. Watch as I explore depth and texture, guided by the palette’s moody colors.

Come along and witness the artistic process unfold, from the initial strokes to the final touches. Whether you’re an art enthusiast or simply curious, there’s something here to inspire.

    Hey, hi, Denise,

    I have been watching your YouTube watercolor flicks for about 6 months now and truly find you to be a highly talented and resourseful artist. The informaiton you impart is well thought out and presented. I don’t care a few people note that they aren’t into your humor – so they don’t want to laugh and enjoy themselves – that’s their loss.

    Please take good care and keep teaching and sharing all you can.
