I use a variety of materials to make art - such as pastels, charcoal, watercolours, gouache, acrylics, oil paints, polymer clay and digital software like Corel Painter or Adobe Photoshop. I currently study at Coventry University, UK, in BA Illustration, but I also own a small business - the "Malice in Underland Workshop" which makes exclusive fairytale art and collectibles. |

I recently got a set of some watercolours myself for my birthday, and I've been meaning to try them out, and I'd love to attempt to re-create one of your works. Of course, I need your permission ^_^;
Do you have any tips for me when working with watercolour? I haven't worked with them much before, and also, if it turns out well, can I post it up here on dA?
~Thanks so much, Jackolyn

Tips for watercolours? I would probably say start with the lightest colours first and just add darker colours afterward in succession where they are wanted. Some people do it the other way around, putting the shadows in first, but I find there's more room to correct your mistakes if you do it in light-to-dark order. If you build the colours darker in layers it's a slower process, but you have a bit more control over the eventual look of the picture because of that. I'm still learning how to use watercolours myself... I'm not the best with them because they don't give you forever to alter things to your satisfaction before they dry out, and you need to get used to how much water to add to get different effects, etc. I'd say just experiment a bit with them to see what you can do with the medium.
