So I tried the watercolor today on an upright easel. First I thought about propping up the watercolor paper about 10 to 15 degrees, but I couldn't find any support, so I decided to use the upright easel.
I had trouble controlling the amount of water; it kept dripping down the area where I was going to draw trees. When I watched several online watercolor demonstrations, some did on a flat surface and some on an upright easel or wall. The professional watercolor artist knows how much water the brush should hold so that it won't run down on the paper. I just started experimenting, so it was a fun disaster; I just have to try several times. Some part of the sky looks really nice already, though.
