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:

Coined by Elizabeth Jean @xparmesanprincessx, the personal curriculum trend is about creating a self-directed learning plan focused on areas of personal interest, loosely based on a school curriculum structure, including things like assigned reading, goals, assignments, and final projects.
At its core, the personal curriculum movement is about celebrating lifelong learning and intellectual curiosity. It's about being more intentional about how we spend our time when we're not sleeping, or at work, or doing the basic maintenance or admin or chores to keep our lives going. It's about using our free time to enrich our lives in a way that is purposeful and intentional and joyful, indulging our curiosity as adults, even once we're outside of structured school environments, getting excited about learning and allowing ourselves the freedom to go down those rabbit holes in our special interests, to challenge our brains in ways that we maybe don't get the chance to in our day-to-day lives.
