This project was a very quick and VERY HARD project! I have never watercolored in my life and it was the most difficult thing I have ever done. I would always get too make water in the brush and then my color would dry so that would irritate me. i read some of the books Mr. V gave me and they kind of helped me. I got more of the concept at the end and understood it more. The hardest part was honestly just figuring it out. I think the trees are my favorite part, they were really fun and simple. It's funny you would think the flower leaves would be the hardest part in a cherry blossom tree but, for me they werent. I'm actually pretty satisfied with how this turned out in the little time crunch I had. Also I had no directions or much help so, its not too bad, although I know I couldve done better!
