How Can the Overuse of Watercolor Mediums Lead to Mistakes, and What’s the Solution?

Using watercolor the wrong way can make your artwork look messy. Here’s how to avoid some common mistakes:

Common Mistakes:

  • Muddy Colors: If you mix too many colors or layers, your artwork can end up looking dull.
  • Overworking: Going back to the same area too much can damage the paper and mix colors you didn’t want to blend.

Simple Tips:

  1. Use Less Water: Only add enough water to get the transparency you want.
  2. Let It Dry: Wait for each layer to dry before you add more paint.
  3. Choose Fewer Colors: Pick a few colors to keep everything looking nice together.

Remember, being confident with your brush can help you create better artwork!
