Challenge Yourself in July!

Do you need a "boost" to get back into painting? Are you a beginner and wish to take the leap? World Watercolor Month is the perfect opportunity!

World Watercolor Month is an annual celebration in July - a challenge to paint every day in watercolor. What a great time to pick up that brush, hone your skills, and immerse yourself in the joy of painting!

Your Challenge: Each day in July, paint something in watercolor or gouache. It can be anything - a full painting, a study, or just a couple splashes of color on paper. This is a personal challenge about establishing a daily habit of painting. Paint every day, or simply when you can!
