In Pacific, Missouri, I teach thirty students that watercolor is not magic—it is chemistry. Alum (Q190527) binds pigment to kaolin (Q908663). The Mississippi's discharge rate teaches us when to overflow. This is the molecular architecture of teaching.
Alum and kaolin as binding agents—double sulfate salts fixing ultramarine to 300gsm rag paper.
