Flat Wash
Apply an even wash by painting an area quickly with the same amount of pigment and water on your brush
Graded Wash
It’s often a good idea to prewet the area with a sponge when completing a graded wash.
Apply the pigment onto your brush and paint the darkest area. Then rinse the brush off and pull the pigment down – it will lighten more and more as water is added to the pigment.
Glazed Wash
Wait for each layer to dry and then paint quickly over it.
Wet into Wet
When an area is wet (be it with water or another colour), and paint is applied to it, it bleeds and creates a fuzzy look.
Dry BrushRemove most of the water from the brush before adding pigment creates a much darker, rougher, look.
Syran Wrap
Salt
Add salt while the paint is wet. Remove salt when it is dry.
Lifting Wet Watercolour
Lifting Dry WatercolourRemove colour by rewetting a paint brush and then slowly moving it over the desired spot.
Spray and blot
Sandpaper
Use an exacto knife or razor to remove sharp
areas of paint.
Sgrafitto & Stamped TexturesShown in this example is a variation scratching a line with a fine sharp point, in this case a pen knife. The wet paint is sucked into the bruised paper fibers as you scratch across the wash, creating dark lines.
