Your project is to paint a set of leaves using watercolour, pencils and at least one other medium that you find around your house.

By using the techniques that we covered in this class, you’ll learn how to mix media with watercolour to create paintings full of vibrant colours and textures!

Once you’ve completed your artwork, please take a photo or scan it and upload it to the Project Gallery so we can all have a look at what you have painted.
