Be Your Own Teacher if your wanting to try something new. I am anxious to familiarize myself with the world of watercolor.

Start with research at your local library. Read and ask experts you come in contact with questions. Trial and error or practice makes perfect. More importantly,never give up. Try and try again and enjoy the outcome weather it's great or not at all what you expected!
I ran across a watercolor series at my local library called Splash. The watercolor's in these books will blow you away. They look like oils in their rich color and expressive techniques. I want more time spent with watercolor to practice getting Splash Good!
What are you teaching yourself? Photography? Cooking?
