I've kept this landscape fairly simple. There are not many colours and I have kept the layering to a minimum to enable it to be a good beginners watercolour. I hope you have fun following along step by step. If you would like more help with your watercolours you can join me on Patreon on the link below. Happy Painting Everyone!

Rives BFK etching paper. Probably best to source this from your local store so you can look after the paper and not have it posted unless you are buying a large amount of paper and it will be looked after. There is nothing worse than getting hundreds of sheets all with a indent in them. Having said that you can actually source this paper from amazon:
geni.us/RivesBFK
Some people have been extremely happy with the state of the paper when it arrived (and some not!)
I love this paper it is soft and lights are lifted easily from it.
