This will give him the opportunity to experiment with various techniques and styles. Additionally, consider gifting him a set of high-quality watercolor brushes, including different brush sizes and shapes specifically designed for watercolor painting.

3. Art Classes or Workshops: If your grandpa is interested in further developing his skills in watercolor painting, consider enrolling him in art classes or workshops. This will not only give him the opportunity to learn new techniques but also allow him to meet other artists who share his passion.
