Celebrate Watercolor Week at The Art Store!
July is Watercolor Month, and we're celebrating this week here at The Art Store! Whether you've been painting for years or you're just discovering the magic of watercolor, this is the perfect time to explore new techniques, try exciting materials, and save on some of our favorite watercolor tools.
Expand Your Watercolor Toolbox!
When most artists think of watercolor, they picture tubes or pans of paint. BUT- watercolor pencils and watercolor markers can add an entirely new level of versatility to your artwork.
Faber-Castell Albrecht Dürer Watercolor Colored Pencils offer the precision of drawing with the beauty of watercolor. Use them to:
- Sketch compositions before painting.
- Add crisp details after your washes have dried.
- Layer rich color that can be blended with a damp brush.
- Create beautiful textures and subtle gradients that are difficult to achieve with a brush alone.
Pair them with Faber-Castell Albrecht Dürer Watercolor Markers for even more creative possibilities. Their dual tips make them perfect for everything from expressive brush strokes to fine-line details. Try using them to:
- Add vibrant accents over finished watercolor paintings.
- Create quick urban sketches with watercolor effects.
- Blend directly with a wet brush for soft transitions.
- Paint on the go with minimal supplies.
Many artists love combining traditional watercolor paints with pencils and markers because each medium excels at something different. Paint establishes your broad washes and atmosphere, pencils refine edges and textures, and markers deliver bold, saturated color exactly where you want it. Together, they create paintings with incredible depth, energy, and detail.
