Hi Ian, thank you for your opinion, I saw how Artists on video were using what was looking black as wet wash and then when it was dried up it was blue and violet tones and it was looking pretty good. My weak side I am not patient and can't wait, seeing too dark I tend to go and add water or go again with wet brush over that sometimes leads to messy appearance. So need just to try more and often :)

Hi Stef, I think it was John Singer Sargent who was known for applying very dark watercolor paint straight on to canvas. It doesn't have to be as a wet wash, next time I paint with watercolors I will try paint with colors much darker than they actually appear in real life because I know they will lighten when they dry. But yes you have to be patient when using watercolors :)
