Hey Sebastien, great paintings! What's the backwards way of working?
Sebastien Berger
Thank you. By that I meant starting with the lightest color and going darker and darker. Since watercolor is transparent paint, you have to think ahead of time where your highlights are going to be and let those parts be the white of the paper. You can’t go light over dark like other paints, unless you “cheat” a bit with gouache 😉
