How to make your own watercolor palette
When it comes to art supplies, there are so many options out there from which you can choose, but this is not making things any easier. So I thought why not create my own watercolour pan palette with the colours I adore? Cand vine vorba de materiale de arta, sunt atat de multe optiuni din care poti alege incat nu-ti va fi prea usor sa te hotarasti.

The page has some bright pink background and a few circles on the bottom of it, so it wasn’t so pleasant visually. The idea with the flowers came only after I drew a few oval shapes that were nothing close to flowers of any kind, but after I let…
