Let Charles Evans help you rescue your watercolor paintings from common problems and mistakes with proven solutions.

Watercolor is a difficult medium to master, and even experienced artists are prone to making mistakes.

Over the years he has spent working as a professional artist and demonstrator, Charles has built up a huge bank of expert advice, tricks, tips and techniques for fixing common problems, correcting mistakes, and learning how to avoid them in the first place.
 
These problems include:

• how to remove 'cauliflowers', the importance of placing your water container correctly to avoid spillages


• what to do if one color is bleeding into another


• how to make distant hills look - well - distant, and 


• why you keep mixing muddy color.


• 
  Each 'problem' will begin with a question asked by one of the author's students, such as How do I stop my trees looking like lollipops?, followed by Charles' solution, and a short demonstration of how to prevent the problem occurring next time you paint.
