Usage of white - end

“Hydrangea” Watercolor、acrylic
Part used in combination with acrylic

I'm still exploring ways to use white in watercolor.、I've almost come to a conclusion。The photo above starts with just watercolor.、The one below is made with acrylic.。

To be honest, I don't want to show you how well it turned out as a picture.。But ok、This is where my ability lies.。When you start, don't think too deeply about the end.、The color of the face was drawn regardless of the background.。If you continue with watercolor, the red shades will stand out.、A case of failure。

there、By applying a slightly thick layer of acrylic white、Can hide redness on the skin (watercolor also adds blueness)、That's the point。Moreover, it is different from gouache or watercolor Chinese white.、Even if you layer watercolors on top of it、The secret is that it does not melt and become cloudy.。This is probably much better for most people.。Tempera is also good though、The problem is the difference in “drying time”。

Mix watercolor white、For those who can create pastel colors as desired in one shot.、It's just a hassle, though.。
