Feb 13, 2026
Watch as I create a vibrant watercolor painting of a Provincetown signpost, guiding you through the process of adding color to the laser-engraved drawing. This art piece features directional arrows to the West End, Town Center, and East End. The painting also incorporates American flag elements, all brought to life with watercolor.
