Beginning Instructional Packets teach basic watercolor techniques while providing the student with designs that sharpen their skills.  Each packet focuses on a specific technique plus color mixing using a limited palette.  All Packets includes a beginning supply list, easy to follow step-by-step instructions (both general watercolors, and project specific), a line drawing plus a photograph of the finished  painting.
