I really liked the variety and learned a lot. I loved the Jellyfish project and think I did quite well on that, particularly my second attempt. I couldn't get into the sunset project, did several washes, but lost interest. Maybe it was the colors.

I really liked the presentation of the 13 techniques that can be added to watercolor projects. I have created a small sample of each technique that I can refer to in other projects. I agree with the previous reviewer that the projects were too difficult for beginners. I think less detailed projects would have been better. In spite of this, thank you for your technique presentations--they were excellent.

This was such a fun course! I loved learning about the different textures, and most of them were easy to create. I learned a lot of new information. My only suggestion is to include another project, one more suitable for beginners. I found the projects incredibly difficult as a beginner, and would prefer an easier/quicker project.
This course was deceptive, looked very simple but the effects gained from household items really were unexpected! My favourite would have to be the plastic card, making rocky landscapes so realistic. I also thought the toothbrush was very effective too. Certainly gave me pause for thought on how to add small touches to give a big effect.
