I am THRILLED to be able to take you behind the scenes as I paint this beautiful ruby throated hummingbird in watercolor! This bird is beautiful, and with just 5 colors (but kinda only 3), I'm going to create this lovely texture, depth and variety.

I have just discovered your channel and love your style of painting. I enjoy all things botanical and lean towards the more realistic style myself. I’ve tried to do some more loose paintings of flowers etc. but can’t say that I really liked it very much. As I also love painting birds I really enjoyed this particular video of the hummingbird. A beautiful painting Katrina, can’t wait for the next video. Thanks for inspiring me to paint more flowers and birds.

@@katrinacrouch Thanks for your reply. You probably already have a long list of birds you’d like to paint but as I live in Queensland, Australia I’m rather attracted to tropical birds with lots of bright colours. I’d love to see you paint something like that and I’ll try to paint along with you. Now there’s a challenge for us all.

Yes, this was filmed before I was able to invest in a camera and I filmed it on my cellphone! The easiest way for me to keep these art tutorials/lessons free is to keep it as low budget as possible, so I’ve been growing my tech slowly over the years
