Synopsis
Charles Evans helps you rescue your watercolour paintings from common problems and mistakes. Watercolour is a difficult medium to master, and even experienced artists are prone to making mistakes.
Over the years he has spent working as a professional artist and demonstrator, Charles has built up a huge bank of expert advice, tricks, tips and techniques for fixing common problems, correcting mistakes, and learning how to avoid them in the first place. These problems include how to remove 'cauliflowers', the importance of placing your water container correctly to avoid spillages, what to do if one colour is bleeding into another, how to make distant hills look - well - distant, and why you keep mixing muddy colour.
Each 'problem' will begin with a question asked by one of the author's students, such as How do I stop my trees looking like lollipops?, followed by Charles' solution, and a short demonstration of how to prevent the problem occurring next time you paint.
