Watercolor | Contemporary art
Watercolor or also aquarelle, 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. The traditional and most common support—material to which the paint is applied—for watercolor paintings is watercolor paper. Other supports include papyrus, bark papers, plastics, vellum, leather, fabric, wood, and watercolor canvas (coated with a gesso that is specially formulated for use with watercolours). The watercolor medium has been around for a long time and dates as far back as the stone age. It is a beautiful medium allowing various possibilities of expression. Watercolor also refers to the medium, a water-soluble paint that has transparent or translucent properties. Many people describe watercolors as being “soft” or “light” because the pigments in watercolors are often not as bright as acrylics or oil paints.
