Water Color Artists That Succeed

By Bridgette Conway


Water color artists know that if you want to get ahead in this form of art, you have to take up the challenge and be fearless. You have to use your imagination and creativity to get ahead and really show off what you can. If you are just starting out, you may find this intimidating, but you will find this easier as you progress.

Paints come in different grades and so you would shop for something depending on your level. If you are a professional artist you would go for the artist grade. The others available include the student level as well as the scholastic water color. You have to find the one that is suitable for you and as you improve you can also upgrade and experiment.

Many people will be surprised to find how long water colors have been around for. In the 20th century many famous painters stood out strong for their techniques and skills. Some of these painters included Paul Klee and Charles Burchfield who had some amazing painting to display.

Some of these originals are worth a lot of money today and if you have one in your home you will find that it can be sold for a fortune. There are many famous painters around today who prefer this style of painting. There will always be a debate as to which is the best, but at the end of the day it depends on the artist.

When it comes to oil painting, you will find that people are more concerned with textures and creating various brush strokes. This is easier to do with this type of paint. These artists like the fact that you can paint over or take paint off.

If you are nervous about this and you don't want to mess up the paper you have especially bought, then practice first. This can be done with a piece of scrap paper. You should realize that the more you practice, the better you will get and you will start to see the improvements every time you pick up your paint brush.

The fact that you will saving money is another big bonus. In this day age, one really needs to count their pennies. Where this medium is concerned, you will find that it is the more affordable way to paint.It is also very convenient because there is less fuss and you can simply carry your paints wherever you go. You don't need too many brushes. Most artists will just use one or two brushes. With this method is very possible just to take your kit and go off into the country to paint a scene in nature.

There are many water color artists who have started off not knowing anything and risen through the ranks to become very successful. This is a medium that has been underrated, but if you look at some of the work that artists have proved, you will be amazed at what has been produced. One can say a lot for this type of painting.
