My watercolor Wednesday Group painted Magnolia Blossoms today and everyone was successful ... it makes a teacher proud.
I present the lesson and demonstrate small steps, they observe and translate it into their own projects ... in other words ...we don't use patterns so that everyone's projects look slightly different. I never know what their projects will look like but the lesson sinks in a bit for each of them.
I think everyone worked well today and learned about using minimal amount of paint and maximum amount of water to create a HIGH KEY image.
Lesson for the day .... I love watercolor and all the layering that can be done .... a little bit a paint goes a long way ...
