Join Sarah Cray for a watercolor lesson you'll be sure to love. In this project, learn how to paint a photographlike image utilizing the bokeh technique. This project focuses on communicating dimensionality through the bokeh effect while also adjusting values by hue. This painting technique is simple and will leave you feeling successful. Appreciating the small things is a simple way that we can feel content and embrace the hygge spirit. For other projects that feature the bokeh technique check out Bokeh & Candle.
