Description

There is no singular best way to approach watercolour. This course will assist many watercolorist to solve a specific problem I had in the beginning of my painting career, and that is that my painting were to tight and lack freedom and transparency and sometimes ended in mud by using too many layers of colours. One of the most prominent elements of my work is the loose technique used on almost all my painting. So I made it a point in this course to really concentrate on my loose technique which is one of the secrets of my art work.
