We will also be preparing for our watercolor children’s activity and will need black line drawings on watercolor paper for that project. Any size watercolor paper can be used for these drawings from 5x7 to 8x10 or anything in-between.

Drawings for both the coloring book and the watercolor project can be turned in at our monthly meetings, our weekly Open Studios, or mailed to SCAL, PO Box 432, Woodstown, NJ 08098.
