Art 2's Watercolor Techniques
For our second quarter project the Art 2's are working on a watercolor landscape. In order to prepare the students to use this new material the students practicing using the watercolors 8 different ways.
We began by looking at the Crayola website that describes the different ways/techniques for using watercolor paints. If you want to take a look at the website the link is listed below.
