Watercolor.- Don't Add Too Much Water 
                   
Avoid inadvertently adding more water to your paint after you've washed your brush by dabbing the brush onto a dry cloth before putting it in the paint again. If you've loaded a brush with paint and decide you needed less paint, hold clean cloth at the end of the brush hairs to soak up some of the excess. Doing it at this end helps keep the pigment at the tip of the brush.
