My tutorial shows an easy crayon solution for your beetle fine art, but I couldn't help but add a watercolor sample in a higher place too. Unproblematic drawings tin sometimes look SO great with the texture that liquid paint on watercolor newspaper creates. You tin meet my Art Supplies listing to see my favorite paint.
