Watercolor is a painting medium that uses water-soluble pigments, typically applied to paper. It is known for its transparent and luminous qualities, as well as its ability to create subtle gradients and soft edges. Artists often use watercolor for landscapes, portraits, and still lifes due to its versatility and quick drying time.
The technique involves diluting the paint with water to achieve various effects, from delicate washes to bold, vibrant colors.
