Watercolor Fall Doodles Tutorial

Step 1:

Start by using your MONO Graph Mechanical Pencil to lightly sketch your Fall doodles. Think leaves, pumpkins and fall florals.

Step 2:

Use Dual Brush Pens bring the design to life. Start by using the brush tip of the markers to add color to the paper. Choose 2 or 3 marker colors for each doodle. Then gently blend the colors with a damp paintbrush.

Step 3:

For some of these Watercolor Fall Doodles, I used a single marker color and just added water. Since these markers have water based ink, the water spreads so beautifully. The watercolor look makes these doodles look rustic and hand drawn.

Step 4:

For branches and berries, I used the bullet tip of the Dual Brush Pens to draw delicate lines and dots. This way you can better control the amount of color you add to the paper, and still get the watercolor look.

I love how the Dual Brush Pen 10-Pack, Seventies colorway has such a pretty Fall/ Autumn theme.

Step 5:

Using the MONO Drawing Pen, add in the title “Autumn leaves and Pumpkins please”. I like using the 05 or 08 thickness for lettering, as the lines come out neat and visible.

For the watercolor doodles, I switched a thinner 01 pen and added a few easy strokes to the doodles. You want the lines to be thin and not distract from the vibrant watercoloring.
