minus-squareValmond@lemmy.mindoki.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 year agoHah yeah water color paper “eats up” the white color, I’m looking into more heavy color (IDK, different guaches maybe) to make better white. I love mixing colors, and if you don’t try for brown, (or a dirty look/feel) you just use two of them, so it’s quite easy too! Add water to make it lighter, let dry and paint on top (dry on dry) to make darker.
