We are excited to offer optional Dry Brush Kits for sale in conjunction with the Charlotte Mason Education Retreat and Heather Lee's Nature Study and Dry Brush Workshop. We are only able to offer these sets to those attending the retreat.
The kit consists of a folding plastic palette, a fine point water brush, and samples from three artist grade paints. All of these items are prefect for taking along on nature walks with your children or for times spent quietly painting on your own. Heather introduced me to the water brushes, and my children and I are grateful to no longer have to deal with water in our nature study backpacks or spilled water in the field.
Also, if you have never tried artist grade paints, now is the time to try and see what they are like without committing to the expense of full tubes of paint. Heather wrote much on paints in her Getting Started With Watercolors blog.
The kit costs $13.00. We need to have your order by February 4th. Please see the bottom of this post for placing your order. You may pay for the kit at the retreat. Please notice the kit does not include a nature journal. However--hint, hint--you do NOT need to bring a nature journal to the retreat. We have a surprise for you.
If you already have a palette and brush, you may choose to only buy the paints for $3.00. If you are not choosing to buy anything, that is fine, but please do remember to bring your own paint and brush for Heather's workshop.
