Stretch Watercolor Paper The EASIEST WAY😱!

Many artists face problems with watercolour paper. Their paper gets wrinkled, creased and buckles up after painting. In this video, Ill be showing you why this happens and how to avoid it.
Loose watercolour sheets have to be stretched before or after the painting.
Sheets in pad or block form need not be strectched as they are pre stretched.
Watercolor paper is made up of cotton fibres, which expands when we apply water to it, and as it dries it contracts and may not do so evenly. That is why we stretch it before painting, so that the expanding and contracting process happends beforehand and the paper remains flat.
I personally like to stretch my paper before painting.
