Wet-into-wet watercolor painting is relaxing (at least, that's what I think :), I'm sure there are many people who find it just as frustrating). You get to watch the paint move, colors shrink and expand, bleed into each other, so juicy and vibrant. You get to experience the different levels and stages of wet watercolor paper - from the shiny pool of water through saturated but only shimmering to satin magic state where the blossoms happen, to matte but cool to touch, which is the danger zone , to bone dry. Wet-into-wet watercolor is poetry.
