A simple demonstration of a farmhouse and laundry in line and wash watercolour. You may notice a change in lighting during the video. I paint by natural light and the sun was in and out today.

PEN: A Pigma Micron pen, 005 nib. I'm using a rather worn out Pigma Micron 005 nib pen. It creates nice scratchy, sketchy lines. Athough, I think this pen is too worn and no longer creates a fine line. Time for some new ones.
PAPER: Size 5"x7"
Arches 140lb Hot Press Paper for this Video.
My papers of choice include Arches 140lb Hot press and Cold press paper and Strathmore 500 series Sketchbooks. All are 100% cotton rag.
For beginners, I recommend starting with a high quality paper and experimenting with different types. As your style develops, you'll get a feel for which type is best. Waiting to switch to a better quality paper later will be much like learning to paint all over again.
MY PALETTE: All tube paints!
Winsor Newton Yellow Ochre, Sepia, Burnt Sienna, Winsor Red, Davy's Gray, Ultramarine, Sap Green.
DaVinci Phthalo Blue, Quinachridone Fuchsia, Cadmium Yellow Lemon, Cadmium Yellow Deep. *I plan to replace the Fuchsia with Winsor Newton Quinacridone Magenta when mine runs out.*
The palette is the mixing tray from a "Koi" Watercolour travel set. The colours are set up so the ones I mix together most often are close together.
BRUSHS: A #6 Currys round and a Princeton 000 detail brush.
