Paint a cozy winter berry watercolor using fun texture techniques like masking fluid, salt, and splatter. In this relaxing winter watercolor tutorial, I walk you through creating loose, dimensional berries with soft snowy effects! it's perfect for holiday painting, winter cards, or a quick creative reset.

We’ll use masking fluid to preserve the berries, work wet-into-wet in the background with salt for crystallized texture, and layer reds with subtle shadows to give the berries depth and shine. This is an easy, beginner-friendly winter watercolor painting that focuses on texture, layering, and keeping things loose and simple.
