One in a row.

Then arrange them from shallow to dark.

White, lemon yellow, ripe brown, and blue are the four most commonly used colors.

If there is a large grid, these four kinds will be magnified.

If you don't have a big grid, put a few more grids.

We are also learning art drops.

Now sophomores.

Put it according to your preference and convenience, and put a piece in a light color.

Heavy color put a piece,

Arrange them in the order of the color rings, and the top few squares are just for good looks, but in the big grid you want to put lemon yellow and white (believe me, I also studied art).

Commonly used enlarged grids, there are no two grids. Warm and cool colors are separated, preferably two paint boxes, I used to be like this, hehe.

Don't put the light and the thick together.

The best thing to do is to put a drop of water on the color you need the next time you use it.

Convenient to carry the method.

Fill each grid with paint, and if it's used, scrape off the dirty paint, pick it off, and mix it with a few drops of water (the used paint will be drier).

Then open the lid of the box and let it dry for a period of time (the moisture content of the pigment is different, the time is also different) until the surface solidifies, shake the box from side to side to see if the paint will still flow, if the flow speed is slow or not very flowing, you can do it (don't let it dry until it is completely dry, just dry a little bit on the surface).

Then cover with a sponge, then close the lid of the box, put it in the toolbox, don't turn it upside down.

When using, spray some water, adjust it, and press the dry layer of the surface to the bottom; Or cut a layer of surface directly with the paint underneath.

If you don't use it for a long time, you can spray some water first, then cover it with a moist cloth and put it in a cool place.

If it has dried into lumps, you can fill each compartment with water, then cover it with a moist cloth, put it in a cool place for a few days, and then look at it, and it will be restored, the disadvantage is that there may be some particles in the paint.

Keep it in a dark, clean place and not easy to tip.

The ways to use watercolor paints are:

There are two ways to use watercolor paints, dry and wet

Dry painting method: is a multi-layer painting method, with the method of layer coating on the dry background coloring, do not seek the permeation effect, can be more calmly colored over and over again, easier to master the orange, suitable for beginners to practice, the performance of affirmation, the shape structure of the bright and bright and rich color level, is the specialty of the dry painting method, the dry painting method can be layered painting, color, color, dry brush and other specific methods.

Wet painting method: It can be divided into two types: wet overlapping and wet coloring.

1. Wet overlapping:

The paper is soaked or partially brushed, the coloring at the end of the dry and the overlapping color at the end of the coloring is dry, the moisture and time are properly mastered, the effect is natural and round, and the taste of the rain and fog atmosphere and moist water is its specialty.

2. Wet coloring:

When the color is close to the end of drying, the water color is infiltrated, the junction is blurred, and the moisture should be uniform when the color is connected.

Most of the watercolor paintings are carried out in combination with dry painting and wet painting, and the picture based on wet painting is partially dry painting, and the picture based on dry painting also has a wet painting part, which is a combination of dry and wet, full of expression, dry and dry, and full of fun.

The mastery of water, the use and mastery of water is one of the key points of watercolor techniques. Water has the characteristics of seepage, flow, and evaporation on the picture, and it is necessary to be familiar with the "water-based" medium and large watercolor painting. Giving full play to the role of selling noisy water is an important factor in painting watercolor paintings well.

To grasp the moisture, you should pay attention to the time, the humidity and dryness of the air, and the degree of water absorption of the drawing paper.
