Most excellent. Extremely useful for a beginner.
Allow me this question: if I try dabbing like you do, leaving some spots more "loaded" than others within one continuous wet area, that whole area dries uniformly, without the variety of values you achieve here. When I try sedimentary paints to counter that, I can't do light values because colors separate in a very ugly way... ???

Wonderful. Thank you for posting such good instructional videos. They are immensely helpful.
If the initial wash put down is still too wet and you add the next color into it, it will just merge completely into a single color. One of the most important aspects of watercolor painting is to learn to judge the water and moisture content of the paper. This can be done by checking the shine on the paper. Lots of water= complete merging. Just after the "shine" has disappeared then less merging. Summer and winter temperatures and humidity also has to be contended with. Takes practice.
