Here’s a simple way to draw and paint a cruise ship. The bottom ocean got an extra coat of blue so that it would stand out from the sky.

MATERIALS

• PDF Cruise Ship Tutorial
• Watercolor paper
• Black permanent marker
• Liquid Watercolor paint

DIRECTIONS

1. Follow the six drawing steps as shown, adding as much detail as desired.
2. Trace all the lines with a permanent black marker.
3. Paint with watercolors. I like to use liquid ones for really young students as they can just concentrate on carefully filling in areas. Mixing the right ratio of water to paint with tablets can come later on.
