Why do people have a tendency to overpaint? Well, we're going to try to avoid this pitfall by painting four pictures in our next class, all of the same subject as our last class.
Bring your paper ready prepared, that's four pieces. To add variety, try different types of paper, rough, smooth and tissue paper stuck to one so you can compare how they all react. Inks, salt and watercolour pencils and different colour ways (think seasons perhaps) will allow for even more variations.
