Ran accross these pretty pictures while researching watercolor painting.

Random Facts: European monks were the first to invent watercolor painting in 1415.

The first watercolor paintings were manuscripts and considered a major form of art.

They took many years to complete.

The first was made by the Limbourg brothers.

It was called "Les Tres Riches Heures du Duc de Berry" or "The Book of Hours".
