All about Watercolour Painting
Watercolour is a painting method that uses pigments mixed with water. Artists create soft, see-through washes of colour, often on wet paper.
Watercolour is light and portable, which makes it popular for sketching outdoors.
The paint is thin and transparent, so the paper shows through, creating soft and luminous colours. Artists control the amount of water to make light washes or strong colours.
Watercolour needs practice, as the paint can be hard to control. Working quickly and planning where the light areas will be helps create beautiful results.
