Understanding the Brush Controls:

 It looks kind of complicated when you first lay eyes on it, but if you break it down to individual settings and examine the results of changing the controls in this organized fashion, making these adjustments as you are painting, will become second nature.

Traditional watercolour painting doesn't let you get away with dipping your brush in the paint and just making any old stroke. You have to patiently learn how much water, how much paint, what angle to hold the brush at, how hard to press .... etc. In digital watercolour (by that I mean painting digitally with all the watercolour variants as opposed to painting traditionally) you need to learn to control your brushes as well, before you even touch the stylus to the tablet.
