In this brief tutorial segment, Christie Renee Hawkins demonstrates a quick watercolor tip focused on painting a leaf shape using the wet‑on‑wet technique. She begins by filling the leaf outline with water, emphasizing the importance of using genuine watercolor paper rather than a mixed‑media pad for optimal results. She shows the wet petals reflecting light, then adds a touch of green pigment, tapping it into the wet area. The key point highlighted is that the pigment remains only where the water is, illustrating how controlled water placement can dictate color distribution in watercolor painting.
