Soft color sampler painting with watercolor, gold accents, and layered mixed media techniques.

Soft Color Sampler Painting Tutorial | Mixed Media Art with Gold Accents

​

In this relaxing mixed media tutorial, I’ll show you how I created a 12-piece abstract sampler inspired by a color palette from The Color Cube.

Using Ocean Paper watercolors, I layered in expressive marks with colored pencils and posca pens, then finished each piece with a touch of gold using Kuretake mica paste and a stencil.

Whether you’re an abstract artist, journal lover, or simply craving color inspiration, this video walks you through my intuitive process from start to finish. Perfect for anyone exploring mixed media, watercolor techniques, and creative play with color!

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.
