whimsical wednesday

it's national watercolor month so we are painting for whimsical wednesday! not really painting but playing with paint. we're making a drop of paint and watch how far it travels. while watercolor painting takes a particular type of paper, paint and brushes, we won't be worried about that. if you don't have watercolor supplies, use a damp paper towel resting on a paper plate or something. drop a bit of food color on the paper towel. watch the color spread. how far did it go across the paper towel? of course, you are free to use actual watercolor supplies if you wish!  my experiment below:

food color/wet paper towel; after drying.
