Description My 2nd watercolor tutorial.

It might looks pretty long, because it's filled with many pictures to help you understand my process, instead of using a lot of texts.


Edit: Wet in Wet is : Adding wet colors on damp sheet of paper or an area of still-wet paint, and let them run out over the wet surface, giving soft-hazy effect



If you have any watercolor question, Feel free to ask me.

Link to the original work.

Fabulous! But it still takes technique to get all those shading colors to blend together.... Regardless, you give me inspiration!

Thank you SO much! Your two tutorials are unbelieveably helpful! I appreciate how you went into such good detail, not missing any steps.

I had tried using colored pencils with watercolours before - thinking I had an origional idea - but since discovered that it's a pretty common trick.

I don't know hardly anything about water colour usage, but now I feel like I can tackle the project. Thanks again!

How do you avoid the water color bleeding out of the pencil lines? And do you ever ink your picture and then watercolor it?

Use thick paper and avoid adding too much water on paper.

Hello, I'm Cadeau, I'm your fan.

Please tell me what I should do. Thank you very much.

Oh I used normal canson, i don't know what kind of this, i just went to shop and they gave me that, they said that it's white and thick canson. But i think that it's not really thick paper, just thicker than regular A4 paper.
Thank you very much 'cause answered my question.

sunmoonblue In reply to ??? [2011-08-14 08:34:22 +0000 UTC]

I have some questions for you,do you mind if you answer it?
How many different types of colour do you use in average for each of your piece?
Does using low quality watecolour paint really affect the overall result?
Thanks in advance.

animedreamer4life In reply to Madelawliet [2011-08-14 05:54:51 +0000 UTC]

No, I have Fabercastell water color pencils and they don't give a really good water color effect. I think its only to use with water color, not alone......
