Loosen up with this list of easy, fun watercolor backgrounds that are loose and colorful! From how to hold the brush to using specific color theory to get the results you desire, this video is both entertaining and hopefully inspiring! For this video, I'm using a number of different brands (some I mention in the video). For the pigment based layers, I'm using Holbein watercolor, Daniel Smith duotones and lunar watercolors, as well as Sennelier La Aquarelle. For the dye based watercolor, I'm using the fantastic Dr. Ph. Martin's Radiant concentrated watercolor. For the drawing ink mentioned, I'm using Daler Rowney Iridescent and Holbein drawing ink in Carmine.
