Let's Paint with Watercolor: Folk Art Flowers!

Hey there, friends! I'm excited to share a new lesson with ya! I partnered with my friends at Prang to create a project using their new line of watercolor: The Color Wheel Watercolor set!

Prang has been working for a long time to perfect this set and you can try it out now! Especially if you happen to be at NAEA next week...Prang will be hosting a "Build Your Own Palette" Party where you can craft your very own watercolor paint tray to take home.

And I'll be there too!
I'll have my books with me that I'll be signing and selling BUT you don't have to buy a book to drop by! I'd love to see you, snap photos and chat! So be sure and visit if you are attending. I can't wait to see you!
And if you need a lesson while you are at NAEA then this one just might work! If you are up for letting your students use watercolor while you are away. I don't know if I would be that brave UNLESS I knew my sub and my students REALLY knew my expectations. OR...

You could start the painting portion this week before you leave and have the kids create the flowers while you are away. Regardless, here's the video:

I don't know if you can tell based on the last two lessons I've shared here but I'm currently ADDICTED to doing this wet on wet technique!

Check out my lesson on organic shapes here.

And my lesson on geometric shapes here!
Also!! This lesson could be used to create planets for a fun space themed project!

Regardless, I hope you have fun! And if you can't make it to NAEA but still want to check out my books...I sign ALL of them before popping them in the mail! You can see them here.
