In today's lesson I talk about a few ways to stop watercolour paper from cockling, or buckling, I'll also paint an atmospheric sky with boats and reflections.
Cockling of the paper can be annoying for beginners, but there are ways around it. Stretching the paper is a traditional method, and is great for larger sheets, but can be frustrating, especially if you want to paint straight away.
For me, the best solution is watercolour blocks, they're gummed around the edges and ready to go when you need them.
