Botanical Watercolour Process in Procreate: Early Delphinium Illustration

In this tutorial, I’ll show you my botanical watercolour process for illustrating an early-stage delphinium plant in Procreate. Using soft washes, layered texture, and botanical detail, we’ll create a realistic digital watercolour illustration inspired by traditional painting techniques. I’ll also be using my own Realistic Watercolour Brush & Canvas Set for Procreate to achieve natural pigment blooms, paper texture, and authentic watercolour blending throughout the process.

The full step-by-step tutorial for this botanical watercolour illustration is available over on my Patreon page through a paid membership. I’ve included the complete painting process from sketching and colour palette creation through to layering, texture, and final details using my Realistic Watercolour Brush & Canvas Set for Procreate. It’s there for anyone who would like a slower, more in-depth walkthrough to follow along with.
