Watercolor Workshop II - Simple Steps to by Barnes-Mellish and Glynis Free download: https://wz.d-ld.net/5a52b70cc4 or buy the book on Amazon https://amzn.to/49rTv0t Introduction Painting in watercolor is one of the most exhilarating and rewarding areas of picture-making. The translucent qualities of the pigments give your work a luminous glow, and watercolor is very flexible, equally suited to loose, fluid sketches of landscapes and technically accurate botanical studies. It really comes into its own, however, when you work with total artistic freedom. You can blend the colors in a way that simply isn’t possible with other types of paint, due to the leisurely pace at which watercolors dry on paper. You can continue mixing colors after you have applied them, composing with the paint in a spontaneous way, or leave each layer of paint to dry before adding more color. If you are prepared to experiment a little and take advantage of this fluidity, you can produce vibrant and expressive paintings.
