Nature Ink and Watercolors

Photobucket

For a class later in the afternoon we created nature inspired pen and ink drawings with watercolors. I encouraged everyone to really draw what they see and not what they think they see. No pencils. No erasers. They did great! Several people commented on how relaxing they thought it was.

We used:
Watercolor paper
Watercolors
permanent pens
nature objects

Working on mine (I still need to finish it!):

Hi there,
Just found you via Teach Kids Art.
I read down a few posts and I loved the one about how your painting inspires your son to paint too.
I have a seven year old like that. It's so much fun.
He told me that when I die he wants all my art supplies. ;-)

PS I'm at the party too. PARTY ON!
