Hayao Miyazaki’s advice on how to use transparent watercolors in the booklet of the Ghibli Museum Sketching Set.

My recommendation. Transparent watercolor is good.

— transparent watercolor has a strong habit
— do not paint stickily and paint after wiping the extra paint and water off
— paint thinly the bright part
— had better not use white
— paint other color after under color has dried
— let’s mix the color and use it
— Light the wool which protrudes on a new painting brush.
— Anything is fine for a water vessel.
— A retractable knife is enough for the pencil sharpener.
— One 2B pencil is enough for the pencil.
— Divide the palette into seven zones: Bright, Dark, Black, Green 1, Green 2, Blue 2, Blue 1.
— Do not use the eraser.
— Do not draw a guideline for a picture.
— these painting materials are enough for a 2-week trip and preparations for a movie.
