A few years ago my husband and I started dabbling in print on demand graphics and quickly became addicted to the residual income you can make from print on demand sites.  Now we make a full time income from our print on demand shops. In this class I’ll show you how to make digital watercolor images that you can use for print on demand sites, selling digital downloads, or for personal projects like greeting cards, wrapping paper, and desktop backgrounds.
