BeckerArt FLOAT-YOUR-PIGMENT Newsletter Dec 9th Bokeh
Published: Tue, 12/09/25
Hello
Welcome to the FLOAT-YOUR-PIGMENT Newsletter #543
This last Sunday I demonstrated a watercolor of a young child and I noticed how important it is for my students to learn working wet-into-wet and learn to control your washes to
create soft edges. I really want all my students to learn how to control a wet-into-wet wash and get their edges soft but done with control for how soft or hard the edge will get.
I did not get a chance to finish my Sunday Demo with David and forgot to teach the Bokeh effect in watercolor last Sunday, So I will teach it in this week's video newsletter technique. See Below
