Video Transcript

"Good morning this is Sue with Expert Village again and I want to explain to you in this step all about aquarelle pencil, aqua as you know means water aquarelle pencils can be found in 24 set of 12 or a large set like I have here for someone that uses them and teaches. Aquarelle pencils are very good if you want to do a travel journal and they are very good for those students or those people who want to learn to do watercolor but are afraid to use it. You put you pencil on the paper and when you are ready to begin you take your brush and you wet it and it turns out like watercolor. You have much more control over your medium using the pencil than you do using the regular watercolor, however, there are draw backs you do not get the variety of color that you do using watercolor and also some of the colors such as the blues, and greens have to much settlement in them and what there called in standing color so be very careful of those when you use watercolor pencil, so let's begin now we will transfer our painting from the poster board to the watercolor paper itself stay tune for that segment."
