Watercolors 🎨
✨ My favorite hobbie ✨
Watercolor (American English) or
watercolour (British English), also
aquarelle(French),is a painting method in which the
paints are made of pigments suspended in a water-based solution.
Watercolor refers to both the medium and the resulting artwork.
Aquarelles painted with water-soluble colored ink
instead of modern water colors are called aquarellum atramento (Latin
for "aquarelle made with ink") by experts. However, this term has now
tended to pass out of use. The conventional and most common support —
material to which the paint is applied—for watercolor paintings is
watercolor paper. Other supports or substrates include stone, ivory,
silk, reed, papyrus, bark papers, plastics, vellum, leather, fabric,
wood, and watercolor canvas (coated with a gesso that is specially
formulated for use with watercolors).
