I recently stumbled across this watercolor tutorial by Anna Bucciarelli and had to give it a shot.
It’s my first real watercolor project in a while and I really enjoyed it. My favorite part was probably adding the glazes at the end to really bump up the saturation.
And here are a couple progress pics
Thanks for looking!

It really is beautiful.
The veining looks so realistic. Will you be doing more leaves?

Beautiful!!! I really like the colour/shading (not sure if that’s the proper terminology).
