How To Paint A Watercolour Moon

Hi friends!  Due to popular demand, here is my Watercolour Moon Tutorial/Watercolour Moon Painting Process!

Here is the video:

Why did I make this tutorial?  Well, I did a moon theme for my July Bullet Journal - you can see the video here:

And I had quite a few questions about how I painted all of the watercolour moons from people who wanted to see a more detailed process.  This is that "How To Paint a Watercolour Moon" tutorial you've been waiting for!

As a disclaimer, I am a beginner when it comes to watercolour.  The moon I paint in this video is actually the first thing I ever painted using watercolours!  But you lovely humans asked for it, so here it is!

This is a watercolour and gouache moon using only two paints:
