How to paint with watercolours using lifting techniques
#v16112
Learn to paint watercolours with techniques for beginners. This video illustrates how to lift or remove watercolours from watercolour paper. This technique is called ”lifting”. Here we have used the technique on a dry design, adding details (the lightly painted line) by lifting or removing the paint. The paint is re-activated with clean water on a brush and can be lifted with a dry brush which soaks up the paint.
A tip: you may experiment and create other effects with this technique on a semi dry surface by dabbing with a cloth and soaking up the paint in this way.
