Ideas Design Painter Beginners

Starting a new hobby in watercolor doesn’t need to be daunting. A few simple supplies and techniques are all you need to get started. The great thing about watercolor is that there are several price points available as you’re learning.

You can get a great color kit here as a beginner to get going and then expand your collection of colors easily by purchasing tubes, and drying them out into pans and creating your own customized set. When making the jump into professional grade tubes it’s a good idea to get a set with colors from a basic color wheel.

Creating a reference chart specific to your palette is always a good idea, and it’s a fun way to get started. Simply paint blobs onto a piece of watercolor paper to see what the colors from your palette actually look like on paper. Then keep it around while you are painting so it’s easy to remember exactly which color is which.
