Watercolour is one of the oldest forms of painting. Watercolours give a quick and crispy look to your art along with unintended effects that create great visual stories. Another beauty of this art form is its versatility. You can experiment with various papers for different types of textures and effects. Every watercolour painting has its own fun and drama and brings with it the joy of creative expression.Â
