Winsor & Newton Watercolor Markers



    I was shopping this week at  Michaels and  I found a new toy... Winsor & Newton
 Watercolor Markers!! I was dubious at first and walked around them , picking them up,
putting them back, back and forth with should I ? should I not ? Well I ended up buying
one six pack of markers and then went back for another...today I went back for the primaries.

                            I am posting some of my little paintings from an afternoon of play.

 
 
The pics posted were painted using Winsor & Newton Watercolor Markers
Cadmium Red Hue, Cerulean Blue Hue, Alizarin Crimson Hue,
Sap Green, Yellow Ochre, and Burnt Umber.
 
I tried them out on several types of paper but found they worked best on Arches
Cold Press 140 lb. They work well with a  water brush but I liked using water and a paint brush best.
I can see packing these for a trip to the mountains or the beach :)
 
 
Happy Painting My Friends!!
