The History of Watercolour Painting
Watercolour painting is an ancient pictorial technique which became popular during the Renaissance. It consists of using pigments suspended in water, which is what gives the paint its translucent effect. The pigment used is pure, so the colour is given a bright and vibrant quality. Watercolour is used primarily in Asia, in both portraiture or in calligraphy. Colourful watercolour was used by renowned artists such as William Turner, the English watercolourist who made watercolour the preferred way to represent landscapes and the changing shifts in light. In the 18th Century, the popularity of watercolour became more widespread, especially in England. At that time, it was used for topography and mainly travel scenes. In the 20th century, it became very popular in the United States, which allowed artists to develop in their watercolor paintings in their own unique style. Watercolor is usually applied on paper because its capacity to absorption water, and occasionally on canvas.
