What else can you use with watercolour to enhance and explore it?

WHAT ELSE CAN I USE WITH WATERCOLOUR?

MASKING FLUID

Be sure to apply it with an old brush or a palette knife. Once masking fluid dries, it’s difficult to get it

out of brushes and materials. Use a non-absorbent applicator.

FINE LINE APPLICATORS

For a really fine application of masking fluid, use a fine line applicator. Fill the bottle with masking

fluid and pipe it out onto the page. Make sure you wash the nib out once you have finished using it,

so it doesn’t get clogged up.

WHAT TO USE IF YOU USE TOO MUCH WATER

NATURAL SPONGES

Use a natural sponge to soak up any blotches of water or paint. It is very absorbent.

WATER VESSEL

You need a pot for some water to dip into. Some pots fold down so they are easily transportable.

PALETTE

With most sets, you can use the lid as a palette. However if you’re working in a studio or mixing lots

of colours, use a non-absorbent palette to mix on. Both ceramic and plastic work well.

FOR COMPLETE PRACTICALITY TRY…

WATER BRUSH PENS

Fillable pens with a brush nib allow you to carry a wet brush with you with complete ease. Just fill

with water, and off you go. Different brush sizes are available so you can paint with varied marks.

WATERCOLOUR IS THE PERFECT TRANSITION FROM

DRAWING TO PAINTING!
