INK and WASH Watercolour Tutorial - Robin (Part 1)

In part one of this ink and wash tutorial, you will learn to draw the delightful little Robin, in preparation for adding the watercolour wash in the second part of this lesson. I am using paints and a calendar supplied by Paul Rubens, but you can use whatever materials you have available. Just be sure to test your mixes before committing them to your painting.😉 The reference materials for this project are available on my Patreon channel: https://www.patreon.com/TheDevonArtist where you will also find that part two has been released a week early!
