There are several ways to put your paints on paper depending on how much water you have in your brush and on your paper.
They are:
💠 wet on dry
💠 dry on dry
💠 dry on wet
💠 wet on wet
💠 special effects
⠀
The first “dry/wet” stands for your brush.
Dry brush in watercolors is the brush with some amount of paint in it but it’s not dripping and washes come out scratchy and uneven. Whereas wet brush is full with moist and color, may be even dripping, makes long and wide even washes.
⠀
The second “dry/wet” stands for paper.
Dry paper is most obviously dry (clean or has previous layers of paint that dried out completely).
Wet paper - is wet, water or paint would stain everything you touch it with.
⠀
Lifting color is what you do with clean dry brush on wet paint. Brush absorbs moist from your paper living pale washes (used for rays in the sky, reflexes on water etc.)
⠀
Special effects are made by adding some chemicals to wet layers of paint on paper ( salt, alcohol, carbamide). Most of them absorb or dye pigments leaving snowflake-liking pale or white stains.
