In this post, I’ll discuss options for building a watercolor kit, and provide some introductory reading material.
My Background
I started working in watercolor in 2016. I heard the quote by Annie Dillard, “How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.” and thought that I should make an effort to carve out more time for art, before I don’t have any time left to carve. I decided to work more in watercolor because, for me, it strikes a balance between range of expression, time, and space. Also, although I’ve done art my whole life, I’ve tended to shy away from color because of its difficulty and expense. I enjoy watercolor because it is challenging, affordable, environmentally safe, and easy to clean up.
