Loosening Up With Watercolour

Loosen up your watercolour technique. After a long break and then returning to watercolour painting it can be a little daunting. Here is how I loosen up my technique to help regain the confidence needed to paint more successfully.

Patrick, you have been greatly missed! Thank you so much for sharing this painting 🖌️ 🎨 with us. You and your work are very appreciated. I will look forward to anything that you care to share with us as you venture forward in the warmer weather! Cheers!

Thank you so much for your comment Quietlife. It’s so nice to have subscribers come back after a long break. I do have some adventures lined up for the warmer weather which I’ll be sharing online. All the best.

Hum, your voice sounds familiar… Loosening up, always hard. Good idea with the fresh start after several months break. Great to hear from you, hope everyone is well and ready for spring.

[@PatrickLeyGreaves]

Many thanks Essie. I feel the break has been worth it. Although, it’s lovely to reappear and have people like you taking the time to say hello again. I hope all is well with you and life is treating you well.
