In this watercolor painting class, artist Yong Chen used a mandarin orange as subject matter to show you the practical watercolor techniques and the working process to ensure you have the ability to finish your painting to your expectation. Many watercolor painting techniques were explained in details during this one-hour long class, for example, when should you wet the paper before applying a wash, when should you apply a second-wash, and should you leave an area un-touch or use a lifting-off to create soft-edge-highlight instead. Through this full-length class, you will get many answers to the secrets of watercolor painting.
