Wow, add me to the list of people surprised you can use masking fluid on top of paint! I’m sure I also wasn’t the only one uncomfortable with that dry brush on the left side. 😅 Thanks for the great video! You rock.

Great ideas. If you don't have masking fluid you could angle your painting slightly so that a bead forms and keeps your edge wet.

Hi Kristin, could you please tell me what the big brush you use in this video? Thank you in advance!

I'm so surprised that the masking fluid doesn't seem to have pulled up the color at all! Maybe I just got the wrong kind? It's pulling up so much color on everything I've practiced on and that would really mess with my foreground.

Are you using masking fluid made especially for watercolor? It could also be your paper. 100% cotton paper in my experience makes a huge difference!

@@kristinvanleuven no, I have been planning to return this for something specifically for watercolor because I hadn't realized there was a difference. I'll have to work on getting better paper, but this is a gift. Also I'd be surprised if the paper quality would lead to so much color coming up... I think it's definitely this fluid. It would be fine for making it completely white, but I watched this video and had so much confidence in my ability to do exactly this. 😂😭
