Hey Art-family,
This is just a quick video showing my recently designed and built watercolor box. Its made of Nickel Silver and Common Brass. Its a spin on the box that James Fletcher Watson uses in his film, Magic of Watercolor which has taught me so much of what I know about watercolor. I figured I could carry a piece of my hero with me and also make something that I can someday pass to my children. Thanks, as always, for watching. See you in the next video.

I am NOT a professional- but there are pros who make these boxes. I dont make them for sale because its too time consuming and Id have to quit painting. Also- I have limited tools and dont really know what Im doing haha.
Happy sketching,
Jared
