      You can try with the thinner paints from the bottles. You may need to add additional coats. I use Liquitex thickening gel amzn.to/2AHdmsK (affiliate) to thicken my paint. Have fun!

    • @Createfulart

      Yes, you could use watercolor on watercolor paper. For the white areas especially on the tree I would use masking fluid. This is the masking fluid I use amzn.to/2kMNapn
