Today I'd like to share with you one of the technique of water color drawing----color mixture , and some information about how to choose your watercolor paper.
今天给大家分享水彩画中的一种常用技法，混色和叠色。就以树叶为例吧，树叶的颜色丰富多彩，随着季节的不同，颜色也是多变的。比如我们常见的春天是嫩绿，夏天是深绿，秋天是金黄，火红等等。一片叶子也可能呈现出不同的色彩。那怎么来更好的表现呢？下面就跟我一起来画吧，你会发现其实也不是很难哦！做个书签或者卡片也是很可爱的呢。
Process 过程：
首先是调色。 把你想要画的叶子的颜色都提前调和好，因为在上色的时候要做一些渐变，方便快速蘸取。我调了三种，橘红，草绿和黄，深绿和草绿 。
用干净的画笔蘸取其中任意一种颜色为叶子上色。
然后再换用另一只干净的画笔蘸取第二种颜色在第一种颜色的附近上色。（不要等干了上，那样就达不到渐变效果）慢慢靠近，如果你调和的很好，他们会自动相融合在一起，形成很自然的渐变效果。大面积不好控制的时候，可以一片一片的来完成。
都上完叶子的颜色后，再用勾线笔蘸取红色，画出叶子的叶脉部分。多色的叶子就完成了！
又调了另外两种颜色，绿色和蓝色。
你可以根据你自己的喜好，来给你的叶子进行混色和叠色，呈现一种绚丽的艺术效果。
这种混色还可以用于花朵的渐变以及天空和大地的渐变哦，发挥你的想象力来创造你的作品吧。
水彩工具之水彩纸：
在水彩工具当中，最重要的就是水彩纸了，它可是比颜料，画笔还要重要呢。它的好坏直接影响你的画作的呈现效果。所以买的时候一定要仔细挑选哦！
1、水彩纸有两面，粗纹和细纹，粗纹的一面更容易吸水，比较适合用于湿画法。一般来说粗的是正面。当然也可以根据个人习惯不同来选择。
2、水彩纸的克数不同，承载水的重量也不同。越大的克数纸张会越厚重，当然承载水分也越多，越不容易起皱。
下面是我用两种不同质量的水彩纸画的叶子，看看区别是不是很明显呢。拍照后可能看的差距小了，实物拿在手中，无论是硬度厚度还是纹理，都有很大的区别。
左边是200g很一般的水彩纸，右边是300g 的 粗纹很明显的水彩纸。
明显的感觉到右边的水彩纸，吸色和混色的效果要好于左边，过度也更自然，边缘痕迹相对明显。
3、水彩纸的材质分木浆纸和棉浆纸，还有混合两种的。一般来说这三种。从吸水性，吸色性，混色，水痕来看，棉浆纸都要比木浆纸好。木浆纸吸色差所以洗色也比较干净。从这点来看，我觉得还挺适合初学者的。 毕竟一张十多元拿来练手有点心疼啊。所以可以分开少量的买不同质地的水彩纸，了解它的特性之后，觉得用的好的再大量购买。
今天的分享就到这啦，希望你们喜欢，谢谢阅读。

@rootingrobert
Sure looks simple but actually not easy...nice comment
Oh yeah totally! I myself would never be able to create such amazing textures!
Correct...Do also find time to check my blog posts...thanks
节日快乐！
太感谢了！
又普及了好多知识！赞！😊
客气啦。
不同的紙效果可以差很遠！ 棉漿木漿各有優點，但無論哪一種認真畫的話最少一定用300gsm的@@
确实是，有的纸就不行。我练手刚开始用的都是200g的。。
@helene
You did great sharing this...will try the procedure out asap...thanks dear and keep steeming hot!
原来我画的不好看是因为纸啊！终于找到原因了😡
水彩纸可是相当重要的呢。画的啥，哪天给我们分享啊！
暂时还拿不出手啊！我要再练习一段时间

Nature on paper in beautiful green
the lovliest leaves I have seen
today
glad they came my way!
I have tried to use watercolors, but I prefer mostly the carbon based pencils for most of my artworks. Nevertheless, you're leaves made in watercolors look incredible and very well made! Props for that! From an artist to another I just want to tell you to keep up the good work!
這葉子也太美麗!!!
這讓我想起,我以前很容易把這個暈染搞成大染缸~ XD
我也有这种时候啊，画水彩有这种现象不是太正常了，呵呵。
哈哈~ 說得也是, 尤其是要畫越細緻的東西~
You are expert
I like it and i wanna try it
Thanks for sharing
Amazing art I really like the texture you pour in your simple work
画功好精致呀，七夕快乐💖

You can choose the topic you like from my page and publish it on your page if you want
Nice post.., thank you for share.. Have a nice day @helene ...greetings
Good luck in your art
Did not understand most of these words, but the results speak for themselves! Do you paint in the colors as they are whet, or do you wait for them to dry up first? To me it looks like a bit of both? :)
Hola... cómo estás?... estudié pintura y nunca pude hacer buenos trabajos con la técnica de Acuarela, voy a tratar de seguir tus técnicas a ver qué me sale y te los mostraré luego...Muchas Gracias por compartir...todos los trabajos en acuarela quedan espectaculares y me encantan...
我有一种前所未有的冲动——我想学画！
好呀，一起来玩啊！
Wow. You're very talented. The leaves look so real. J

As a kid I did a lot of painting and drawing... such a shame I stopped doing that! Your post may inspire me to pick it up again... but then I'm so busy creating art in the kitchen these days. Another beautiful post! Steem on!
thanks @amy-goodrich, from your post I knew you also like painting and drawing, and I'm very glad to see that you want to pick it up, let's learn it together .:)
