The art of watercolour painting has come a long way since the romantic landscapes of the early 19th century and the delicate diary paintings of Victorian ladies. Despite being viewed by some as ‘less important’ than oils, there is no doubt that the medium is more popular than ever. You only have to look in the pages of this magazine to see the incredible variety and quality of contemporary watercolour painting.
