šIām so excited that this year my book has more reliable stock for anyone wishing to give the gift of watercolor to someone special. And, as of two months ago, itās available in THREE languages! Iāve loved hearing how some of you are using the Polish and German books to help you practice your language skills, while others of you have picked it up because itās now in your preferred language. Itās such an honor being a part of your watercolor journeys. If youāre still looking to get one, I have several links for options here: tinyurl.com/mywatercolorbook
šMy second bookās deadline has just recently passed and Iāve had a lot of fun making my nails match with some of the tutorials in my second book. I have made sure each lesson is able to teach you great skills, but my nails have been a great way to add a bit of whimsy, too.Ā

I've been loving showing you guys some forms of watercolor that aren't the typical pan or tube paints. I'd love to know your guys' experiences with any of these. Which form of watercolors do you guys like to play with or are you most intrigued by? ššļø

Nick and I have been loving the changing colors with all the leaves. When we go for walks we each try to find our own perfect leaf and it changes every time. If you were to pick out your most perfect autumnal leaf, what color would it be? Feel free to describe it more in the comments! š š š

šIceland was such a dream and Iām so glad I had my custom sketchbook to share what I created during my travels. Whenever I share anything travel related, two questions inevitably come up: where do I get (insert travel supply item here) and how can I make my own sketchbook?
I know some of you say that when I link something in the comments you arenāt able to click it easily, so I wanted to address both those in an accessible way. Many of the supplies I like for travel are in this list- tinyurl.com/unicorntravel . If you donāt see something there, itās probably either my brand/from my store or things Iāve picked up along the way from stationary shops. And for the sketchbook, Iāve included a link to it attached to this blog, so hopefully this helps you create your own custom sketchbooks!

šØšļø Every month in my Patreon we get together on a Google Meet and create together. Sometimes we go through a tutorial I lead and sometimes we go through challenges together and itās the patrons that get to vote and decide what weāll be doing. This monthās vote has decided that weāll be doing a limited color challenge.
Itāll be a great opportunity to help unlock how to choose colors and saturations to play with values in making a cohesive and interesting painting and not just focus on color matching. If youāve been around for a while, you know I used to do quite a few of these (Iāve linked one here) and I canāt wait to see everyoneās paintings on Saturday!
Thereās still time to join if youāve been looking for a way to boost your skills and be a part of a truly amazing community- patreon.com/rebelunicorncrafts

šThe mornings have had a chill in the air and thereās no doubt that autumn will be here soon. Iām trying to soak up these final moments before the seasons shift and when my garden flowers are no longer blooming. I challenge you to look around, get inspired by your surroundings, and create something to celebrate the end of summer (or winter for my friends in the southern hemisphere).
Iām sharing some pictures from my garden to help give you a boost. ā ļøThe 5th/last one has a very cute little spider friend in case you need a forewarning or prefer to skip that one.
What will you be creating?

šItās here! The German-translated version of Learn to Watercolor (Einfach Aquarell!) by Lacey Walker is live and I look forward to hearing if any of you see it in your local bookstores! Iām so excited that the book will be more accessible to those who feel more comfortable following along in German (or Polish) and love that some of you are going to use the translated versions to practice your language skills. So clever!
You can order the German translation from here- www.amazon.de/Watercolor-Starter-Set-Anleitungen-Aā¦
I wonder which language might be picked up next for a translation⦠Spanish? French? Dutch? š
š And by the way, thank you for all of your curiosities and excitement for my second book in my last post! Iām still in the thick of writing things, but look forward to sharing more with you over the next year! It truly is a privilege to be part of your journey with watercolor.

š¼ļøšļøI'm really excited for our Patreon live paint along this weekend and wanted to share a little bit more about it in case you might be interested. We paint live together every month and the Patrons get to vote on what they want to paint/work on. Sometimes we paint something a little more detailed and sometimes it is something we can paint multiple times within our time together so that we can practice and learn more about timing or loosening up. We explore questions and troubleshooting in real-time and I LOVE seeing what everyone has painted in the end. I always repost the live in the Patreon, so if you can't join us live, you can always paint with us at a time of your choosing and then share your results in our discord if you'd like! If youād like to join us and place your vote for this week's options, you can find more information here- patreon.com/rebelunicorncrafts
šØAnd just as a side note, since I know some of you have asked about a restock of watercolors on my site- a restock is coming! The Patreon members will know first exactly what date/time, but it will be live later this month if thatās something youāve been looking for, or if you want to be in the know, weād love to have you!
