Watercolor was once not only my least favorite medium;
I downright hated it. What I didn't realize was that it
didn't have to be used the way my elementary school
teacher insisted we used it. Once I allowed myself to go
beyond the established "rules", watercolor became a
wonderful tool.

Watercolor is probably the hardest medium out there.
It tends to have a life of its own, run and spread where
you don't want it. It's not a very forgiving medium,
either - once you put it down, you can't take it away.
But with practice, you can learn to control and even
enjoy it.
