Water Colours!

My next book is going to be in watercolour, and I am having so much fun playing around, figuring out what looks best, and what I like... I'm not a great artist, but that's part of the appeal of watercolor - it doesn't have to be perfect.

Below is a tutorial that I found helpful, but I also just like playing around with different brushes, different amounts of water, different ways to get colour on the paper.

Need:
Water Colour pencils
Water
paint brushes
Thick water colour paper
