Softening Watercolor Edges
This is definitely a "Hand-crafted" video! Short and sweet, and hopefully helpful too. Practicing is something that can be done for five minutes as a warm up to any painting session. The more often you practice, this, the more quickly you can soften your edges. Time is a factor in creating with soft edges.
I’ve been learning a bit about storytelling this week. One of my assignments was to record a one minute video of “my story.” This is my attempt AND I realize I neglected to tell you my name (Patrice), or my website (www.ArtOfAloha.com) — two important pieces of information. Good thing I’m continually learning! 😇

Reflections on life and how our paradigms shift as we move, grow, and evolve. Gratitude and appreciation for all who have come before and for all who will follow in our footsteps. May we turn towards love rather than towards fear as we move forward in life. Safety in numbers means even more when we work together. #memorialday #memorialdayweekend #memorialday🇺🇸
The monument at the National Cemetery of the Pacific. #memorialday #memorialdayweekend
Memorial Day is celebrated this weekend. I’m making a few short videos of my walk through the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific, known in Hawaii as “Punchbowl”. #memorialday #memorialdayweekend #memorialday🇺🇸
Recent paintings for pondering. “Who’s Pulling the Strings” began in early April. “By Torch Light” began in late April. “Balancing Act” began in my sketchbook in early April and as a painting just two days ago. @sunshinearts17, @underthekoatree, @noheagallery, @tiffanysartagency, @hiltonhawaiianvillage, #waikiki, #oahuartist,

This video shows the beginning of a large watercolor and includes my thought processes while I’m painting.
I Paint the Essence of Living Aloha and teach others to paint so they can access their inner selves and enrich their lives.
