We love liquid watercolors in this house. They're vibrant, versatile, and fun to use. We've used them for so many different kinds of projects ranging from coffee filter art (and butterflies), shaving cream painting, regular watercolor painting, marbling, more marbling, and probably some others I don't remember at the moment.
Maia asked to use them again recently and I decided to try them undiluted for once. Usually I dilute them about half and half with water, which works well and makes the watercolor bottle last a looong time. However, I wanted to see what they were like full strength this time so just gave them to her as is.
In the photo above, she has squirted the watercolors on cardstock then dragged a comb through the paint.
Bright and vibrant and wonderful!
I'll still use them diluted sometimes, but now that I know how wonderful they are undiluted I'll remember to use them this way more often.
Although they tone down a bit when dry...
