Watercolor Pencils for Nature Journaling:
Simple Tools, Rich Results – Sketch, Add Water, Watch It Come Alive
Join Us for a Workshop!
Watercolor pencils are a powerful, portable alternative to traditional paints—and ideal for journaling outdoors. In this introductory workshop, you’ll learn how to work with just a few pencils, mix colors to expand your palette, explore texture techniques, and understand water-to-pigment ratios. This workshop will help you feel more confident adding color to your journal and more at ease sketching wherever you find yourself outdoors.
