Create your own hauntingly adorable watercolor art with this beginner's guide featuring a detachable paper pad with pre-printed templates.

Forget florals—it's time for fog, fangs, and fun. Creepy Cute Watercolor takes watercolor in a wonderfully witchy new direction with art projects celebrating all things spooky and adorable. Artist Stephanie Bayles of @guild_of_calamity invites you to a beginner-friendly journey through gothic themes, from Mush Boos (ghostly toadstools) and Catus (prickly little felines) to haunted radios and sickly lollipops.

Never watercolored before? No problem! This book includes all the basic how-to information you need to get started painting goth watercolor. Stephanie will show you which brushes to use, colours to mix, and steps to follow for frighteningly cute finished paintings. Plus, the watercolor practice pad with pre-printed sketches means you don't have to worry about your drawing skills either!

This first-of-its-kind watercolor guide includes:

  • 24 step-by-step tutorials featuring creepy-cute characters, haunted objects, and moody motifs.
  • Built-in watercolor pad with pre-printed sketches for immediate painting fun.
  • Ready-to-print bonus designs to continue your watercolor adventures.
  • Watercolor basics covering tools, techniques, and tips for eerie effects.
  • Aesthetic inspiration for fans of whimsigoth, dark academia, spooky cute, and horror styles with a helping of aw, that's so cute!

Whether you're looking to paint "Ahhh!vocado Toast", "Hot Dawgs", or "Meow Shrooms", Creepy Cute Watercolor turns your spooky obsessions into frame-worthy, giftable, and downright fun works of art. It's the perfect choice for beginners, hobbyists, and seasoned artists seeking something a little offbeat.
