WATERCOLOUR MAKES ME NERVOUS JUST WATCHING IT IN USE

This actually why I love using watercolors. My painting professor thought that acrylic & oil paints were cheating because if you make a mistake, you can slap on more paint to cover it up. With transparent watercolors you have one chance to get it right so you need to think through what you’re doing.

Also, what you’re not seeing here is I’m sure the artist has many scrap pieces of test paper. The paints look different on the palette than on paper, so testing is crucial when it comes to watercolors.

A lot to think about, yes. But the result is worth it.
