Let me teach you how to avoid some rookie mistakes when applying a watercolor background.

In this video, I demonstrate the things that you need to avoid when applying a mottled background.  We then look at what you need to change, so that you can create a soft-mottled background instead.  One that would set off any wildlife painting perfectly.  Sometimes it is knowing 'what not to do', that actually helps you remember what is good to do.

If you fancy learning more about mottled backgrounds, this video would be ideal for watching next: https://bit.ly/3HOHJzb
