▶︎Free Video Lesson: 8 Ways to Avoid Overworking Your Painting https://www.learntopaintwatercolor.com/opt-in

The first time I tried to paint without taping down my paper I hated it. I felt out of control and uneasy.

Then I took a workshop with watercolorist Andy Evansen. In watching him paint, I began to realize how important that first wash of your painting is.

There are some major benefits to painting this way. I talk through all of the advantages and some disadvantages of this method in this week’s video.

Keep practicing, keep pushing forward, and I'll see you next time.
