My Project

My students are excited to get started with learning about watercolor painting and techniques. We are looking to get started with some materials that will help them feel like they are real artists.

Good quality supplies will help students to understand their true potential as watercolor artists.

We have watercolor paint that comes in the pans, but I believe that my students will learn faster and get better results with quality supplies. They are excited to start learning about watercolor painting and we can't wait to get this project funded.
