Hello Tilly! I'm sorry for responding so late!

The company Winsor & Newton have a line that is 'professional' & a line that is less expansive, as for student. I use both. The Winsor & Newton 'Cotman' watercolor is not expansive, particularly when it is on sale, and it gives beautiful vibrant colors. I use their blues often for to do my skies. I would recommand you Cotman watercolor.

Also, if you want to develop your skills with watercolor, the quality of the paper is what is the most important. It is the base.

BlueCaroline In reply to Tackon [2014-10-23 22:21:41 +0000 UTC]

Thanx Tackon. It was unintended. But it looks a tad as the fascinating textures in your paintings. Perhaps I should try to reproduce some of your textures in areas of my paintings. It could make them more interesting.

I do! You took beautiful picture of my city. Thank you! But my very very favorite is this one:

 

It almost captures the secret life of Québec City, behind the scene.

Sandy!    This photo was kinda difficult one to do in a watercolor painting. It was my second attempt. Perhaps I will try again on your 'Memories Of Fall 2008' later. That you like it makes me very happy.

Great! You see, I've learned that trying to represent a picture, a waterscape, without sky is very difficult. Your serie 'Memories Of Fall 2008' is so inspiring! If/when I'll paint another of your serie, I'll choose one with a sky! It will be easier to balance colors & light.

You think so? I'm confused about this one a little. I layed it thick, it almost looks like a gouache.

Thank you my dear Iris!
