Watercolour FAQ’s
Why are some colours of watercolours easy to wash away after drying and other colours are not?
The fact that some colours remain on the paper and can only be partially washed away is due to the type of pigment (particle size) and/or the quality of the paper used.

How do you create bleeding with watercolour?
The bleeding technique is similar to the wet into wet technique (wetting your paper first with water, or painting into a wet area of colour), only instead of laying your brush on the surface, let the colour drip from above one into the next.
Tip – To control the bleed area, pre-wet only where you want the colour to go first.

Does a watercolour have to be varnished?
It is not absolutely necessary to varnish a watercolour, but varnish helps you protect your work from moisture and dirt. Remember that Watercolour Paint is not waterproof, so remember to follow application instructions when varnishing your artwork. You can also choose not to varnish your work, and instead place it in a frame with UV-resistant glass.

What does “granulation” mean?
Granulation is a property of some pigments which refers to pigments in the paint combining together in small groups once applied. This produces a flocculated or curdled effect that brings life to the colour surface.
