Watercolor Lettering

Overview

Take your brush lettering to the next level by incorporating watercolors! Not only will you open up a door full of unlimited colors, but you'll be introduced to varying degrees of transparency, color mixing/bleeding and effects, adding texture, and even some tricks with our favorite Tombow Dual Brush Pens!

Creating watercolor calligraphy is easier than you might think, and I'm thrilled to introduce you to multiple ways to incorporate water into your lettering.
