How To Paint Movement In Water Using Watercolour

I teamed up with Etchr to put together this free watercolour demo about painting swirling seas! Grab some paints and paper, and paint along!

Materials:

• Indanthrone Blue or Indigo

• Dioxazine Purple

• Burnt Sienna or Quinacridone Burnt Orange

• Yellow Ochre

• Phthalo Green (Blue Shade)

• Hansa Yellow Medium

• Watercolour paper (I used Etchr’s A4 Landscape Sketchbook. I also recommend Fabriano Artistico Cold Press or Arches Cold Press paper)

• Brushes- a small round and a large round or mop

• Pots of water (one for clean water, one for dirty)

• Masking tape if you want to stretch your paper or create neat edges
