                Oh boy you're making me want to bust out my water colors again. Though I think my tubes are all dried up.

                    @Jake-Parker you can rewet those old tubes by adding a little bit of water and gum arabic. That's another reason I love watercolor. Just cut open the tube and put the powedered remains on a plastic palette, then mix the mixture in.

                    PS: for others out there wanting to try watercolor, not all of them are made equally in terms of re-wetability. Windsor Newton colors will NOT rewet back to their tube strength. I use M. Graham paints for sketching because they can always be sprayed with water and become totally workable again. Schminke paints will also re-wet easily.

                      Love the watercolor scenes - beautiful use of colors and the looseness of the medium.

                            wow these are impressive! Your gesture figures are beautiful! As someone who never had the speed or looseness to do gesture drawing well, I'm a little jealous! 🙂 And your watercolor paintings also have this great in the moment feel to them. Very well captured and very expressive.

                                  @Lee-White Daniel smith rewet beautifully. I have some that may be 8-10 yrs old and work perfectly.

                                      @margaretintexas there's a watercolour sketchbook class coming early November and I'm assuming it's Lee-white teaching it as he seems to be the prolific watercolour guy.

                                          @Ace Connell, nope it's not me for the watercolor sketchbook class. That is going to be part of a bigger digital class taught by another illustrator (who is awesome BTW).

                                          I'm going to be doing a more comprehensive watercolor class that is more of an exercise based class and will go over everything in an in depth way. That one should release in the spring. I have a business class releasing in December.
