Watercolor Dos and Dont's - The Importance of Blending

[@DannySabraArt]

The tips about wetting your paper with CLEAN water is so important. I’ve had times where I absentmindedly grab water that’s dirty and it always creates a disaster. Lol. Great tips!

[@EmilyOlsonArt]

Oh yes, I've done that too!

What an excellent teacher (and of course, artist first!) you are. You communicate so beautifully and clearly. Thank you for these videos. If I keep on with watercolor (I’m in “try everything” mode at the moment) I will run to sign up for your paid content. Thanks again for these and for sharing your hard-earned skills and talent, both, with us.

i love how your videos are short and clear. By the way, do you have any tips about how to move away from guidelines as you sketch? Thanks!

[@EmilyOlsonArt]

Thanks, Grace! “Drawing on the Right Side of Your Brain” by Betty Edwards is an excellent resource for learning to improve your sketching!

Im not sure I fully understand the last tip about softening, especially when yousaid it could be wet on dry. Could you please explain this more?
