Watercolor Butterfly Tutorials

Join me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/dianeantonestudio Today I’m painting a beautiful butterfly and talking about how painting watercolor every day for just a few minutes can heal your brain and keep it younger longer, and keep you happier and healthier as well! In a complex world which is hard to understand and full of stress, even painting can become part of the problem instead of the solution. That’s why I take all the stress and strain out of painting for you, so that half an hour a day truly can rewire your brain.
