on 4/8/2009 Best way to learn how to paint anything is to study those who know how to do it. J.M.W.Turner is a great watercolourist for example. Sargent wasn't half bad and Delacroix is worth studying to. Best advice of the lot is to throw away your pencils and draw with the brush from the start.

on 3/13/2009 I want to do this but I'm afraid I will use too much water. I guess it does take some practice. I like the watercolor crayon idea.
