Last year, we released a very, VERY in-depth watercolor class called The Complete Beginner's Guide to Watercolor. It's basically the same watercolor workshop I used to teach all around the world, brought to you on YouTube (for free). People loved it and it also generated some amazing follow-up questions. So in this video, I'm going even deeper to answer all your burning questions about watercolor.

How much water/pigment should I use? I can't quite get it right!

What's the best way to mix paint to get the colors I want?

How do I get more details, textures, and utilize negative space to add dimension?

Let me tell show you!
