Hi friends! This week I taught a live watercolor pencils class for Michael’s Stores & Derwent. This is the project:

A board, such as a clipboard to tape your watercolor paper to.

Here is the pattern, right click to save it and then you can print it out to transfer to your paper

I want to thank everyone who signed up for the class! I know we had about 1000 people watching live and several folks said they couldn’t log on so I am going to see if we maxed out the class capacity or what so hopefully that won’t be an issue next time. I hope you enjoy the replay and give it a try!
