There are many different ways of creating interesting marks and the illusion of texture with watercolour. You may already use these on paper, however they are often more dramatic on canvas. Others, because of the longer drying time on canvas, may need adaptation. 

This module introduces you to some of the possibilities and encourages you to experiment. We will then put them into practice on canvas using some beautiful birch trees as our inspiration. I want you to always think that you are not copying a reference photo, you are being inspired by it, so feel free to make it your own. Leave things out, put things in, move things around, introduce new colours...
