Hi there! In today's video I want to test out painting watercolor from DARK to LIGHT.
If you've been painting for a while, you may know that the general consensus is that watercolor's painted from light to dark. I want to test out the other way of doing it.
I did a few experiments, some more successful than others, and reached the work process I demo in the video. It combines the flow and advantages of watercolor, with a dark to light approach, in a way that doesn't compromise too much in both regards.
I hope you'll enjoy the process!

And one last note - I hope you're all doing well and are safe in the Coronavirus crisis. Stay isolated as much as possible and I'm wishing you lots of health!
