[Aquanet] A new palette

[Annette Compton]

Phyllis—I have my students use fine steel wool or fine sandpaper just  
to "rough up" the surface before they start putting in the paints.  
Once you "scratch" the surface and rinse it off, it becomes much more  
manageable.

I like the new idea of having a survey of topics to vote on for the  
monthly critiques. I submitted mine today via the website and look  
forward to what others want us to do!

All the best, Annette
