Lesson One: Starting from Scratch
For the
absolute beginner. If you have never picked up a brush before (or
you are switching from another medium such as oil or acrylic) this lesson is
for you. It covers all of the basics, such as how to accomplish the
"dreamy" feeling of traditional watercolor painting, how to correct mistakes
(contrary to what most people believe, you can "erase" mistakes in
watercolor), how to get colors to blend together smoothly, how to keep
objects in your painting from bleeding together, and other common
techniques.
All techniques
are demonstrated with easy to follow instructions.
Also covered are
typical watercolor supplies and materials, such as what paints, paper and
brushes to purchase, what extra items are helpful, and what items are
required and what items you can "scrimp" on.
