I love finding new watercolor painting ideas to share with you, and on a recent walk along the beach I found myself picking up handfuls of smooth, sea-worn stones. I knew those stones would find their way home with me and inspire a painting. So today, please join me as these gifts from the sea help us create together a fresh, colorful watercolor painting. And along the way I'm going to be sharing lots of my best tips for creating the art we love - without getting stuck in the decision-making trap!

I love painting birds but they can be hard to draw. I was at the beach today and absent-mindedly picked up some beautiful pebbles to bring home. Later, I realized that yet again nature has already done the hard work for us. Beach pebbles are the perfect 'secret stencils’ for Blobby Birds! Today, I’m going to show you how to turn a simple stone into one of my signature Blobby Birds in just 10 minutes.

I’ve got three beginner hacks for you—one for the body, one for the tail, and a tracing paper trick for the eyes—so we can skip the 'drawing stress' and get straight to the watercolor magic. Cuteness is guaranteed, and no drawing skills are required. Let’s paint!
