What Role Does Color Choice Play in Enhancing Transparency or Opacity in Watercolors?

Choosing colors is really important when you're using watercolors, especially when you think about how clear or solid they are. Here’s what I’ve learned:

  • Transparent Colors: These colors are bright and lively. They mix well on the paper and allow light to shine through them.

  • Opaque Colors: These colors are thicker and can cover what’s underneath them. They give a more solid look to your painting.

Using a mix of both types of colors can create amazing results. Understanding how each color works can really improve your art!
