Learn Watercolor Series Part II — Techniques
This video is about many common techniques used in watercolor, including wet-in-wet, wet-on-dry, dry-on-dry and dry-on-wet, lifting out/masking and spattering. Materials used are listed below.
Note:
The Section on” Dry-on-wet” technique should also have included an example of brush loaded with concentrated paint (almost out of the tube) onto damp paper. This dryish pigment will not travel much on the paper and gives you more control. This was omitted in this video, but will be covered in more detail in future videos
