No medium can match the delicate luminosity of transparent watercolour. It has a freshness and immediacy that can’t easily be duplicated with oil or acrylic. No wonder the medium is so popular! However, painting with watercolours can be difficult. It is a hard medium to master, largely because it can be unforgiving and unpredictable. Mistakes are difficult to correct, and its fluid nature makes it hard to control. Yet it’s these very qualities that give the medium its undeniable charm. Learning to work with, and even exploit, the behaviour of pigment-laden water on paper is a rewarding challenge.
