Paper, ruler and graphite pencil.

"love out" handlettered with the water tank brush.

The more water you add by applying pressure to the tank, the lighter the colour will appear on the paper. This creates beautiful colour gradients!

Allow the paint to dry well before carefully erasing the pencil lines. And you have lovely watercolour lettering!
