Art Store Tour Of Blick Art Materials In DC

This was the first real art store I had ever been in and they couldn't have been kinder! It was a great first art store tour!
Before this, all my art supplies were bought online; I started watercolor in 2021.

Blick Art Materials in DC was easy to navigate with a wheelchair.
There's a wheelchair lift right inside the front door.
Everyone in there was so kind; Mom and I had a grand old time looking around the entire store,
specifically at every single watercolor paint and paper. :)

Hi I'm Megan. I'm passionate about watercolor and helping people with my chronic health challenges by sharing what I'm learning.

I'm a photographer, artist, and designer living in the US. I design themes for Samsung Galaxy devices. I have always loved photography, and recently (May 2021) found watercolor because of health challenges (POTS). I discovered that watercolor is an art form I can do with wrist strength issues. I want to encourage you and show you what's possible. I hope my art will brighten your day.

Whether you have health challenges or not, I'd love to have you join me!

Megan :)
