Varied washes or varied colours are a unique watercolour effect that makes watercolours just ideal for quick but beautiful sketching.

In todays lesson we'll have the following aims...

1. To understand what a wash of watercolour means

2. To look at how to vary our washes

3. To show that varied washes can immediately create interest

4. To examine how a simple addition of ink structure can then make our varied washes come to life!
