Teacher expertise and credentials
When I first viewed “Bridge over a Pond of Water Lilies” and saw how beautiful it was I became determined to share that awe with others! I have had years of learning about and using watercolors and think they are perfect for younger learners to use while exploring art. Through an extensive immersion experience in France I was able to gain competency in the language and its vocabulary, allowing me to share some of the terms Claude Monet likely used!
