Confidence in Watercolour

June 27th, 2010 No comments
Being an artist myself, I take a my hat off to those of you who paint using watercolour. I find the medium really hard to control and after many attempts find myself using acrylic paint for traditional work and the graphics tablet with Photo-shop for my digital painting. After this weekends trawl of the net, I wanted to highlight this video clip. With summer upon us and the urge to get out and about painting, using those long summer days, I thought this clip really highlighted the confidence and skill needed to get out there and paint using watercolour.

Here at rubooks we have some great watercolour how-to books to help you get started in watercolour. We even have the tools to get you started.
