What paper to use for watercolour painting beginner

140lb watercolor paper is thicker and more durable than 90lb paper, making it an excellent choice for beginners. It can still buckle and warp when wet, but it's less likely to do so than thinner papers.

What is the correct way to paint with watercolors?

First, swirl your brush in some clean water and mix it on your paint palette to get the paint wet. Then use your brush to spread the paint mixture on your watercolour paper. Add more paint as you need, and you're done! Watercolour paints are activated by water so you can spread them on the paper.

What are the best colors to start with in watercolor?

 

You may be wondering what colors to start with, how many colors you need, or whether to go with tubes or pans. Choosing a palette is very personal – but you for sure need to include the primaries – yellow, red and blue. This will give you a foundation for mixing plenty of additional colors.
