Excerpt from First Steps in Water Color Painting Those teachers who are most pessimistic when the subject is considered see only a waste of time and energy - the children's and their own - and the development of many bad habits of work. Others contend that most of the efforts along this line are fol lowed by results of unappreciable value because the medium is much beyond the ability of young children, and its technical properties are such as to make it impossible to have the work become an educative factor. Many complaints are made about the amount of time spent in preparation for a painting lesson and the added amount of time required to clear up when the lesson is finished, and this seems, to those who complain, a woeful waste of time and energy in view of the fact that results seem destined to be discouraging. To some extent there is foundation for the Opinions enumerated in the preceding sentences, and while some of the fault may be in the medium itself, there is no doubt but that methods used in handling it are in some small way to blame for conditions.
