Project 1: Watercolor Agate Slices
Video Length: 30 minutes. Most people will complete the project within one hour.
Agate is a mineral from the quartz family that comes in a variety colors. On the outside it looks like a sphere of rough and craggy rock. Inside are striations of different colors and crystal formations. Agate slices are thin pieces cut from the sphere. They are polished and oftentimes artificial color is added.
