Quick and Easy Watercolor Fish | Beginners Tutorial Painting Loose Wet in Wet PLUS Tracing Tips

Today I decided to skip the part where I struggle to choose what to paint, and go with the first idea that came to mind. The result is this cute golden fish nestled amongst the seaweeds, under the sparkling surface of the sea. The body and fins of a fish like this make an excellent subject for practising wet in wet blending, and (just like our #paintabirdaday birds) you could do endless variations on this theme, and every one would have its own unique character. I hope you have a go, and I look forward to seeing your versions on Facebook and Instagram!

About my brushes
I buy my favorite brushes from Drawell. They are handmade in Japan. Drawell will ship readily to anywhere in the world. The prices on their website are in Japanese currency but if you send Mr Maeyama an email he will give you prices in other currencies. The brushes I use are the Golden Nylon Series 11-2, and I use mostly sizes 7or 9 and 10 and 13. http://www.drawell.co.jp/english/prod...
