Qualities & Characteristics in Watercolor

Above about qualities & characteristic in watercolor.

You can easily discover the relative transparency of each of your colors. Use a magic marker to draw a big (about 1 / 4 "-1 / 2") line on a piece of watercolor paper. Let your guide line to dry completely. Now, for each color you want to test a mixture enough brushful saturated color of your paint and brush in the line identification. Do this for each color you have, their labeling with the manufacturer (note whether student or professional qualification), and the color name and number. Leave your samples dry, then carefully observe the area where the paint overlaps the black line. If the color "disappears" when she straddles the line (for example, you see only a black line), we believe that the color is very transparent.

In sample on the left, most of these costs are transparent red, transparency is the least permanent Pink [& Newton Cotman Winsor]. You can see the leaves as a deposit on top of the black line to other colors.
