Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Step 1: Understanding Transparent Colours. 
Transparent colours allow light to pass through, revealing the underlying surface. Watercolour is a transparent medium, meaning it can be applied in thin washes, allowing the texture and features of the paper to show through. 
Step 2: Verifying the Options. 
- Option (1): Watercolour is the most transparent colour medium. 
- Option (2): Oil colours are typically opaque and not transparent. 
- Option (3): Poster colours are generally opaque and not transparent. 
- Option (4): Pastels can be applied thickly and are generally not transparent. 
Conclusion: 
Therefore, the correct answer is (1) Water colour.
