Hi
I am an absolute beginner to watercolour after drawing in pencils for as long as I can remember. I have been going through my sketchbooks and would dearly love to work them up into more finished paintings. I am primarily more interested in landscape, but would like get some kind of concensus on the green issue. Am I better off mixing my own greens or should I buy some pre-manufactured tubes? To many professional painters this is often seen as corner cutting. Please help!
