No Need to Stretch your Watercolour Paper

Here is a follow up video that I made about this - there were a lot of comments so:
   • STRETCHING WATERCOLOUR PAPER  

Stretching watercolour paper takes time and effort - but is it worth it? In this video I share my views on why I never stretch my watercolour paper and why I think there's no need. Of course, it is totally up to you - I will let you decide. Experiment, see what works best. We all have different ways of painting and remember, it really is all about having fun and enjoying the process.
