Simple Tools, Gorgeous Results: Abstract Art with Turquoise & Gold

Discover how to create stunning abstract art using just one granulating watercolor in this relaxing and inspiring tutorial.

I’ll walk you through how I built a playful watercolor sampler using a cool turquoise Masha’s granulating paint, then added visual interest with intuitive mark making using Uni-ball Signo pens, a Copic Acryla marker, and shimmering Kuretake gold ink.

Whether you’re new to abstract painting or looking for simple mixed media ideas, this process is perfect for exploring texture, movement, and expressive creativity with minimal materials.
