How to Paint a Baby Deer – Step by Step Watercolor Tutorial with Free Traceable Sketch

Today I’m taking a quick trip down memory lane and painting a baby deer (fawn) in a loose style that is easy to do. You can download a drawing of this deer from our website here: https://dianeantone.com/product/fawn-sketch/ which will make it easier for you to paint him.
Hope you enjoy this video!

THIS PAINTING of an adorable baby deer can be done successfully using colours which are in every standard paintbox like this one https://amzn.to/3VSZ56D plus white gouache: https://amzn.to/3L9uc93
These are the colours you need:
– Burnt Sienna
– Burnt Umber
– Black
– Ultramarine Blue
– Cadmium Yellow

Or if you wanted to use the colours I used they were:
– Burnt Sienna
– Van Dyke Brown and Sepia
– Black
– Olive Green
– Ultramarine Blue
– Quinacridone Gold or Cadmium Yellow
The end result would not be very different.

About my brushes
I have always bought my favorite brushes from Drawell direct from Japan. They are handmade in Japan. Drawell will ship readily to anywhere in the world. The prices on their website are in Japanese currency but if you send Mr Maeyama an email he will give you prices in other currencies. The brushes I use are the Golden Nylon Series 11-2, and I use mostly sizes 7or 9 and 10 and 13. http://www.drawell.co.jp/english/product.html
