Watercolor is a beautiful medium because it allows for abundant color, drama, and variety in painting styles. You can produce amazing works of art if you master the challenging medium. Mastery requires familiarity with a wide variety of approaches. We've included 15 of our favorite ways to use water colors below.
Flat Wash:
One of the easiest watercolor methods, a flat wash is ideal for novices. To make a flat wash, you simply paint a broad, uniform area of one color as a basis for your painting.
Graded Wash:
The graded wash is a simple technique that may be perfected with time and effort. Before beginning to paint on the canvas, load the brush with loads of color. When you next pick up a paintbrush, use less color and sweep your strokes over the canvas.
Wet On Dry:
Wet on Dry is a lovely technique for beginners that brings out the semitransparent qualities of watercolors. The paper receives a wash and is then let to dry. Next, you paint over the top using a wet brush, letting the underpainting show through.
Wet on Wet:
You may get the "wet on wet" appearance by wetting the paper and then applying paint. The resulting method will have a delightful feathery look and feel and be rich with potential for expression.
Dry Brush:
An intriguing scratchy texture may be achieved while painting with a dry brush. If you want the greatest results, your paint shouldn't be too wet, so dab off the excess with a paper towel. This is another enjoyable practise for amateurs to try out.
