Okay, so I’ve been seeing all this cool “witchcraft art” floating around the internet, and I got super inspired to try it myself. I’m no artist, but I figured, why not? It looked like fun, and I had some free time this weekend.
Getting Started
First, I gathered my materials. I didn’t want to go crazy buying stuff, so I just used what I had around the house:
- Some old watercolor paper I found in a drawer.
- A set of basic watercolors – you know, the kind kids use.
- A couple of different-sized brushes.
- A black marker. Any permenant marker I had.
- Some random leaves and twigs I picked up from my backyard.
The Messy Part (aka the Fun Part)
I started by wetting the paper. Not soaking, just damp. Then I started dabbing on some colors. I went with blues, purples, and greens, because, well, they felt “witchy” to me. No real plan here, just splashing the colors around until it looked kind of cool and mysterious.
While the paint was still wet, I pressed some of the leaves and twigs onto the paper. I figured this would give it a cool, textured look. I left them there for a few minutes, then carefully peeled them off. It left some faint impressions, which was neat!
Adding Some Details
Once the paint was mostly dry, I grabbed my black marker. I started drawing some simple shapes – moons, stars, swirls, that sort of thing. I’m not great at drawing, so I kept it pretty basic. I also added some dots and lines here and there, just to make it look a little more interesting.
The Final Result
Honestly, it’s not a masterpiece. But it was super fun to make! It’s got this kind of abstract, moody vibe that I really like. And it was surprisingly relaxing to just mess around with colors and shapes. I might even frame it and hang it up in my room.
I’m definitely going to try this again. Maybe next time I’ll experiment with different colors or try adding some glitter. Who knows? The possibilities are endless!
