Granulating watercolor abstract art with oval shapes and intuitive mark making in green and turquoise tones

Granulating Watercolors + Mark Making = Mesmerizing Abstract Art

​

In this relaxing abstract watercolor tutorial, I’m playing with granulating watercolors — Shadow Turquoise and Shadow Green by Masha — to create a dreamy, textured background using simple oval shapes.

Then, I bring it all to life with intuitive mark making for a layered, expressive look. If you love mixed media, abstract art, or experimenting with watercolor techniques, this video is packed with inspiration.

Watch how a simple pattern of ovals turns into a one-of-a-kind art piece! Perfect for beginners or anyone looking to loosen up and play with color and shape.

Looking for the supplies I used? I’ve listed all my favorite and most-used materials on one easy-to-update page here: https://2lilowls.com/favorite-supplies-for-mixed-media-abstract-art/

(Some of the links are affiliate links. If you use my link, I get a small commission, which will go toward my art supplies and to support this channel! I appreciate your support!!)

Note: I don’t list individual supply links on every post any longer, simply because keeping up with that for each video or project took more time than I have. Instead, I’ve created one easy-to-browse page where I’ve listed all my favorite and most-used art supplies. It’s always up to date, and a great place to find what I’m working with most often.
