This background was created by making tiny squares with a ruler and then watercoloring each square and letting each square dry before moving onto the next color. I learned this in an online watercolor class last week with Kristina Werner. It was a really fun class and we learned so much!! You can still sign up for her class here, even though its past the time we did it. You can take the class whenever you want.
