Watercolor stands for painting with water-paintable colors and is also called Watercolor. Once you have discovered painting with watercolors for themselves, this painting technique will not let go.

Watercolor painting is a classic artist technique that is done with high quality paints on special watercolor paper. The watercolor paints are available highly concentrated and pigmented as dry color pots or in liquid form in artist tubes, in pencil form.

The delicate color gradients of painted watercolors succeed especially with high-quality brushes. Professionals use red sable brushes for watercolor painting. These can absorb a particularly large amount of color and then release it evenly. Red sable brushes should only be cleaned with water so that the natural grease and thus the shape is retained. New innovative synthetic brushes are also so optimally shaped that they too can hold their shape and color.

Watercolor is for many the term used for watercolor painting in handlettering, for small messages. The pretty delicate pastel watercolors can be found currently in many decorations and paintings. The theme is current and trendy. Therefore, for some time there are not only the classic watercolor crayons but even brush pens filled with watercolor. Watercolor on black paper with watercolor metallic paint is also a specialty that you should definitely test.

Watercolor paints are furthermore available for painting on fabric. Combined with other painting techniques and fabric paints, the new watercolor fabric paints create ingenious modern textile designs.

Use the watercolor painting for mixed media projects - in combination with handlettering fineliners, with acrylic paints or metallic effects create the most beautiful images.
