Watercolor Technique
There are many different watercolor techniques out there. One of them is called wet on wet. It consits of painting pigment on already wet paper. The shapes it creates are blurry and are best used for background areas. Another technique is called dry brush. Dry brush technique is the opposite of wet on wet. You use a dry piece of paper and also a dry brush. It's best used for sharp, defined details. Dropping in color is another technique. To use that technique, you add different colors to a wet painting and letting the colors bleed together. Doing that can sometimes give surprising and random results. There are many more different techniques, but those are some of the main ones.
