Raina Mcmahan's watercolor learning experience:
Overall, I have loved learning watercolor painting and see it as something I will continue doing the rest of my life. Watercolor painting really teaches you to slow down, and when you are painting all the worries of life escape your head and it is just you with the brush, nothing else. I see watercolor as a perfect remedy for those with high blood pressure or too many worries in life! I know after this class, I will continue with watercolor and hopefully continue to get better at it. Thanks so much for teaching me to paint watercolor, I will appreciate it for the rest of my life! I am glad I can continue my study of watercolor through your website, yongchen.com. I have showed my friends and they think it is a great thing you are doing, bringing watercolor to everybody, not just those in a school.
