Whilst I’ve been enjoying stretching myself into expressive approaches to painting as an <\/span>addition <\/span>to my first-and-favourite style that is realistic watercolour, I only recommend you do the same if this step feels right for you. (If you need help deciding whether you should loosen up, <\/span>watch this video<\/a>). <\/span><\/p>\n
