Ombre Watercolor Calligraphy
Using watercolor to create calligraphy results in a sort of blended rainbow effect. I have used watercolor here to make a tequila sunrise-inspired piece.

You Will Need
-
Step 1Begin by putting a little bit of water in your watercolor pan to soften the colors that you wish to use. I will be using yellow, orange, and red.
-
Step 2Use a brush to apply one color to the back of your nib. Here, I have chosen to begin with yellow.
-
Step 3Use that color to initiate your first letter (or first few strokes, if you are creating an illustration).
-
Step 4Add another tone of watercolor to the back, behind the first watercolor tone. Your colors will blend on the back of the nib as you write.
-
Step 5Continue to write using this technique, alternating the colors you apply to the back of the nib.
-
Step 6And voilà!
