How to Use WATERCOLOUR PAN Paints (Beginners Guide)

Pans are my go-to for watercolor paints. I find them convenient, versatile, compact and economical too. I do use tubes, but generally only for working on large backgrounds, or to refill my pans from time to time. In this video, I share the basics of using pans, and how to mix them to the right consistency for your work. Indeed, if you would like a bit more information on the correct water to paint ratio, this is a good video to watch next: *https://bit.ly/35v7HKt* OR, if you want to see me using an inexpensive set of half pans, this is the video you want to watch: *https://tinyurl.com/jy8cs4u7* *SUBSCRIBE* to my YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/2KsTSS3 🕒 *Timestamps* 🕒 00:00 How to use watercolour pan paints 00:18 Introducing half pan paints 01:00 Buying half pans 01:47 What about tube paints? 03:08 Inexpensive tinned sets 04:12 Starting with pan paints 04:58 Tips for using half pans 06:39 Pan pain mixing and consistencies 08:54 Cleaning your watercolour brushes 10:17 Changing the amount of water in your mix ▶️ *JOIN MY ONLINE SCHOOL:* Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/TheDevonArtist 🛍️ *BUY AN ORIGINAL PAINTING* I sell all my original paintings through Etsy: https://devonartist.etsy.com 🧑🏻‍🎨 *RENT A SINGLE LESSON* https://devonartist.co.uk/video-shop/ ⭐ *FREEBIE CLUB Our *Freebie Club* gives you access to several full-length tutorials and a regular newsletter, alongside tips and tricks videos too: https://www.patreon.com/TheDevonArtist 🎨 *MATERIALS I USE* I am often asked about my painting materials.
