What educators are saying

This was a great project for all the classes I used it with. The students liked the open ended nature of the project and had a lot of fun exploring different techniques.
This was a great extension project after a more structured watercolor and design project. I loved the beautiful student examples which made my students rise to the high level of the exemplars provided!
