Hi everyone,

Newbie question coming up: I am still trying to understand how to get the correct ration of water and paint on my brush and getting it onto either dry or wet paper.

I am wondering, does anyone know of a website or webpage (perhaps even here at WC?!) that shows a side-by-side comparison of the same exact painting, only one is done with wetting the paper first, and the other one was done without wetting the paper? I think if I could see a side-by-side comparison like this, it would really help me.

Thanks for the help!
