Who are we?
Hi there!
We are so excited you are interested in joining us to learn about watercolors. I (Callyn) started painting with watercolor 3 years ago. I noticed there were lots of resources for adults but not that many for kids. My goal is always to share art with my kids in a low stress way… for all of us!
We are a staff of three:
Callyn (mom)- I love to paint expressive illustrative animals. I have loved art since I was young and was always creating something! My favorite color is cobalt turquoise. I use it in all my paintings of snowy skies.
Molly (8 years old) – Hi, I love painting cute animals and trying to paint peoples faces. My favorite color is teal.
Carson (5 years old) – Hi I’m Carson. I like to paint dinosaurs! My favorite color is green.
We hope you enjoy.
Love,
The Kircher’s
