How to paint with watercolors?
Watercolor can be used on dry or wet paper , according to your desires and the effects you want to give to your painting. The technique on wet paper requires more experience, because it is necessary to be able to control the diffusion of the paint on the paper.
Watercolor paint can be diluted with water , so you need to bring a small glass of water. Take your brush, immerse it in water then rub your wet brush on the small cup to dilute the color. Then apply the color to your paper.
You can make a gray pencil sketch beforehand or you can start directly in the creation.
White is the white of the sheet, play transparencies with the grain paper and let your creation breathe while leaving "white", which will give magnificent effects of light!
For shading, just add a touch of a darker tone wherever you want.
Colors can be mixed between them to create your color palette.
When you change color, simply rinse your brush in water, and wipe it off on a small cloth.
Don't be afraid to test! Watercolor is a pleasant painting to work with.
