Secret #1​ How to load your watercolour brush with rich, juicy paint

9/1/2018

It seems to me that students struggle with loading their brushes with enough colour and water. Their watercolour paintings look dry and overworked and seem to have a "scrubby" look. See my Paintbox Tip #1 to see how to load your natural bristle brushes with good juicy, rich paint!

Amanda Brett - Watercolour Artist

Quality Guarantee: All my watercolours are painted with only modern professional grade watercolour paints on Museum exhibition grade watercolour papers, they are extremely lightfast and will become a family heirloom and passed down to subsequent generations. If​ properly cared for, watercolour paintings will last as long, if not longer, than oil paintings. I only paint on 100% cotton rag paper, mostly Arches and Fabriano, and frame to conservation standard with acid free materials.
