Take & Make Kit: Watercolor Process Art

Take & Make Kit: Watercolor Process Art

Saturday, August 1
What is process art? Simply put, it’s creating art for the sake of the process of creating rather than to achieve a specific result. For this project, you’re not necessarily trying to create a specific picture (unless you’re already a great artist/watercolorist). Use the supplies to play around with watercolors and see what happens!
