Excellent instruction. I have been watercolor painting about 2 years. I need to invest in better paper as my current paper is blistering if a good amount of water is used. Still waiting to reach a skill level I am happy with not there yet but enjoying the journey.
It took me two years to 'splurge' on 100% watercolour paper and while Canson, etc., took me a long way to learning dry brush techniques, l realised Just.How.Much I had held myself back by using inferior pulp paper. I sincerely mean that you won't reach your desired skill level if you wait, because you won't know just how much you're capable of. I just think paper quality is so important point to know for beginners, and this important video only makes sense when applied to the right paper. So, spoil yourself. ETA, l found some lovely, inexpensive journal-type writing paper which isn't acid-free, but all-cotton, and excellent to see how differently the paint flows. Some people think they're my best pieces!
Hi, can you tell me what brush that was that you initially used to wet the paper (dark wood handle)? My hake brushes like to shed and that looked like a really nice brush. Thanks!
Watercolor acts differently and you have to think differently as you learn how to use it. I’m an intermediate too and have a terrible time with acrylic, lol. It’s just what we get used to. Best of luck in your creative journey.

Beautiful picture; you make it look so easy 😂. What did you use to apply the masking fluid?
A silicone color shaper, very helpful!

Hi, it's a hake paintbrush by Nid' art, I found it on the french website I order from Aquarelle et Pinceaux.
I am intermediate but it's very frustrating comparing to Gouache, acrylic and Oil
I understand, I have the hardest time with gouache actually
