Wecreate Lessons's video: Winter Birch: A Watercolor Masking Technique

Using masking tape or painter's tape your child or students can create an evening winter scene of birch trees and snow. The tape is used to mask the shapes of the birch trees and moon, while white crayon or oil pastel is used to draw snowflakes. A blue watercolor wash is used over the picture. After pulling off the tape (try to give the wash a few minutes to start to dry so as not to run) black or brown lines can be added as detail to the trees. *If you are interested in more information about this lesson or interested in others by wecreate please visit us at: http://wecreatearttutorials.blogspot.com/ or visit our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/WecreateArtTutorials.
