Review on DANIEL SMITH 284055011 Watercolor Transparent by Carla Anderson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Like transparent liquid paper!

I paint with large 3x4 inch watercolors and would like to try painting on something other than white paper. I primed the wood panel with clear plaster and then this clear watercolor primer - I recommend letting it dry the full 48 hours as it takes the watercolor better than 24 hours. Also experiment with how you apply it: use a brush to leave the lines of the strokes and the roller gave them a more jagged texture. It doesn't have the porosity of paper and feels more like plastic (acrylic based) but it's the best clear watercolor primer I've come across.

Pros
  • Arts, Crafts & Sewing
Cons
  • High Price
