Best leaf tutorial I've ever seen! A+++! ❤ Thank you so much for posting this!

Im brand nrw. Just 6 weeks in and 70 years old. So much to learn🎉 . Appreciate all the tips. I hold pencil in death grip. Also give up to soon. But will keep trying. 🤗🤗🤗🤗

I love your desk!! Everything looks LOVED!! NO shame!!

What do you think we are, desk police? My desk is the same when I work on something and I love being surrounded by lovely coloured pencils. The feeling of achievement when I finish a page and I put all those pencils back in order in their place! You’re awesome, keep going.

My desk looks just like that! Except there’s more eraser lint.😂 Its refreshing to see someone else who almost aggressively lays down color as part of the process. Chris Cheng is wonderful, though I find myself intimidated by her. Your last video helped me relax and I finished three pictures in a week. Oh, and in case you haven’t heard this today: you’re wonderful and very much appreciated.❤️

Lori, I loved this demonstration! And I appreciate your reminder to see leaves as a creative challenge instead of a boring chore. I think we can pick up other people's negative attitudes about the various challenges we face in tackling a page. And I've heard a many people lament doing leaves and I don't want to view it that way. Oh, and thanks for the light and shadow tips on inside and outside curves and stems! Great job! Lisa

Awesome tips! I'm in love with the turquoise/green leaf with the veins! I can't wait to try out what I've learned today! Thank you for sharing!

Stunning tips

Hi Lori, I have been coloring my leaves this way since I can remember, but I don’t remember who showed me this way, could it have been you, do you remember ever doing a tutorial on leaves, this way? Btw, I think your desk looks just fine, you don’t want to risk blocking your flow of creativity by organizing your pencils, I too have to have all the pencils I need in front of me, and I know where each pencil I need is, as I’m sure you do too, and whoever is reading this understands too. Another great tutorial, thank you Lori. 🤗💕

You do pretty work on your pages... I am only 4 years into this beautiful craft...

Yeaaaaa i did it, not on my picture in the book, I went out in garden got a leaf drew it. Colored it this way you showed, its great. Think you So much. Xx

Love how you explain things! I want to do an internship with you for a couple weeks. I have so many questions. Trying to teach myself at my age has been difficult. I am making so many mistakes but still love it so far.

I love coloring leaves, but I am always looking to make them better. This is a great tutorial. Thanks for showing the state of your desk when working on a project, now I don't feel so bad.

I’m a complete newbie at adult coloring and your videos are what started it all! This may be a dumb question, but what is the propose of the cool gray before the posca marker? It would be great another style of leaves tutorial!

I am so glad yu showed us this with leaves as I get stuck so often hugs xoxo

Thank you so much for this leaf tutorial. I love greenery and since I am just starting my coloring journey, you are a fantastic find in this medium. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.

This really helped me. Thanks so much ...

Great tips, Lori. When all of the leaves on a page look the same, it's boring, and that's why I didn't really enjoy coloring them. Those leaves don't just sit on the page. Now they pop. Using different combinations of colors is a great idea. Thanks for showing us how to make them look so much better. BTW I love your special effects, especially when your hand first appeared on the screen. It's never boring when you color! Keep doing what you're doing. I hope your sweetie is doing better and you too. Big hugs!!

This was great thank you.I will be trying it out on my leaves.

Very beautifully done!

Your tips and tricks are a gold mine! I had been delaying getting a Posca Pen until now! You are just bound and determined to make an artist out of me, aren't you? LOL

Loved this so much Lori. Can’t wait to try this. Thank you for sharing this.

You Are Amazing Extremely Talented Lady

I love this. You made me laugh on a really miserable crappy day. The way you showed us your desk and said "Oh my God! I can't believe I'm going to do this!" and then panned across from your amazingly gorgeous coloured page to the side with all the pencils - well guess what? That's what we all do - yes, you are NORMAL. ❤️😪👍 And, do you know what, I love you for it. Ha ha ha, love it. OMG, you did not see that! was another cracking one. 😁😁

Great tutorial thanks, as are all your videos. I'm bingeing on them at the moment, trying to get through them all, but learning so much. You have a great way of teaching, very clear and easy to understand.

LOL...."my desk, my shame.". You are just so naturally funny and make me chuckle.

Oh my goodness. I enjoy your videos so much. Sometimes when you're talking it's like you're reading my mind! You have a true understanding of the dilemmas that colorists go through! Thank you for doing such a wonderful job with your instructions!

You are so good with leaves. I just learning and I watch you all the time.

Lori, I just found your KZfaq. Thank you for explaining so friendly to us. I have had 3 nerve surgeries on my right hand, wrist and inner arm. Surgeon told me, I may never regain feeling, but I am determined to take up art again. Thank you.

Thank you for making daily videos They really cheer me up and keep me company

Wow Beautiful

I've had a rough day.. Watching you has chilled me..I Love to learn what you teach..love hugs to you and yours..🎨🖌🖍🙏🤟

I love your videos! I've learned so much from you and my coloring has improved and so has my drawing. By the way, I ADORE leaves and love to color them.

That is a terrific and I really enjoyed all the leaves that you did and I have leaves around Shira con out of my Disney villains

Game changing episode! The Posca pen trick is genius. Beautifully creative shading. I'm a Master Gardener w/over 400 hosta's. I Love Leaves! Thanks for sharing your talent.

Enjoyed this very informative video!!

Yea leaves! Want more! Wonderful video as usual! Thanks so much Lori! ❤

The pain .... my eyes.... I can’t unsee that.... lol 😂 kidding thanks for the great video. 💕

This was a wonderful lesson, on how to create leaf color. Tx

The only thing different about your desk than mine is mine has a mug of coffee and a lamp and a phone. There is something comforting about having stuff you need nearby. Thank you for sharing another wonderful video.

Wow. A great-way to teaching. You speak so clearly that anyone can understand. English is not my mother tung, but I want to learn coloring, which I started recently. Thank you very much👌🙏

I could listen to you talk alllll day, your technique is also fab

You’re the first colourist I’ve subscribed to (I know you do many other kinds of art as well), even though there are so many amazing ones out there. I find the combination of your incredibly interesting and informative tutorials alongside your overall style of colouring to be extremely inspiring. I’m 34, dealing with multiple chronic illnesses, and I’m just getting into my colouring journey. My very first little project is colouring some strawberries in a Hanna Karlzon book (Seasons) and I was trying to figure out how to get the veins in the leaves. I’ve already been watching you but finding this video felt like kismet! I’m so excited to try this out and thanks again for your incredible channel and all the work you put into it. It’s so appreciated. Meghan ❤️

Thankyou so much such a help and I am such a beginner.👏🌟

Leaves have been a bane I've tolerated. Your work has given me something to bounce off from. Thanks so much.

Awesome

Oooooh thank you, thank you, I will never have boring leaves in pictures, ever again..

Exactly what I needed -a different approach to leaves 🍁 .This is the first time I have been the first viewer. Thank you for sharing your beautiful pictures and especially your talents.

The tips in the last 2 minutes are going to change my coloring. Thx.

Loved this one! Flowers and leaves have always been my favorite subjects and where I do my best coloring. But....lately been feeling like I was sort of stagnating when it came to the leaves and....have been wondering for a while now how to make the veins "pop". So thank you!

Love the technique and colors to the leaves. ❣️

You should see my desk... It's all about the work you do...

I am loving all your teaching videos like this one! You are so amazing!

That was very interesting. I will have to look up that special pen you used. Maybe my Michaels has heard of that.

Leaves become a chore but I am going to take a leaf ( sorry the pun) out of your book and hopefully start to create more interest in each one I colour. Wish me luck! Thanks again Lori

Lori, you really are a Master Artist and you are so sweet & kind to share your grest talent with us, all of the fantastic tips you gave to help us achieved a better look on hour coloring pictures is incridible but not only that i've learn so many great things know i now when i do one things why i did it that way and i'm able to seen what my flower or however what i color what it will looks like before i have start adding my colored pencils on so many big Hugs to you from me sweet Lori , i'm so Grateful & Thankfull for your times you take to teached us these fantastic teaching lessons, for me it's priceless and i really appreciated it sweetie Thank You for this FABULOUS TUTORIAL my friend xx

THANK YOU. This is wonderful 💚💚🖤💚💚🖤

Terrific ideas for leaves, thank you! Love your tutorials!! Thank you for making them!

A big help. Doing some leaves now & going to try this! Love your videos

thank you so much for all of your videos, they have helped me a lot, now with this video I might be able to do my leaves better, love ya,

Brilliant! Since I'm colouring a picture in Enchanted Forest right now, your timing is perfect. Definitely going to try this.

I love this technique !

Thank you I so needed this tutorial since I am coloring in Johanna Basford 's magical jungle . My leaves all come out the same , not anymore thanks again and I hope you have a happy thanksgiving

Thanks so much for this video. I’m weird. I love to color leaves. I love your using the posca for the veins. I never thought of that.

Love the desk

Lorie 🥰🤗 you Rock thank you for sharing !! That is how I apply acrylic paint to a biscuit ( ceramics ) to highlight the shadows❣️💖 I wish I could show you a picture

This is well-timed - I was just about to start a page of leaves. :)

Thanks heaps for this. I love leaves but when I see a page full I wonder how on earth am I going to make them interesting and different. I do add veins and different colours but they all end up looking much the same. Your method is brilliant so I am going back to my leaf pages and working on them again. The book you are working on has beautifully formed leaves but a lot of books have such a boring shape. I love the colours you have used. I will save this video and make leaves interesting again. Thank you

I was so excited to try your techniques but I got lost in the first few minutes when you traced the veins with a "pasta". I can't tell if it is a marker, colored pencil, or another type of tool. Btw, thanks for your videos. You're awesome! Remember though, a messy desk is a sign of a genius mind, so don't be ashamed of yours!

Thanks for the help! I am having a terrible time with my leaves.

Very nice to watch, my first video of yours, I think I will be watching alot and also getting the Posca markers...hello amazon lol....thank you so much for sharing what I tend to avoid, leaves. Your leaves really do pop.

I like the mess! I have to color at my kitchen table, so I have to pick everything up!

I love to color leaves! Leaves are all kinds of shades and shapes and sizes. 👍💖 Coloring leaves is very soothing to me. What is that tool you used to lay down the whote layer on the veins? Pasca? What kind of pencil sharpener are you using? Thank you for doing this, love! Enjoy your weekend.

Beautiful Lori! Would you please zoom up the camera while you drawing? Just to see better. You are wonderful

Lori your leaves are just gorgeous love it thank you I’ll try it out xxx Zdena

Oh yhai needed this ty yhaaay

Thank you for another great lesson ❤️

Thank you so much. Great Video.

I love leaves, always the first thing I color. You desk, oh boy..how do you find anything.

I love u, So funny and informative! Thank u😘

You were Oh so right about the Pitt Pens, by the way! Tried to follow these cool tricks following your "menu" and trust me, the Pitt Pens failed miserably. It looks like the old white out fluid we used to use in typewriters 30 years ago! Just awful! Can't wait until Friday when my set of 3 Posca pens arrive! Have a great Thanksgiving, Lori!

I'm just wondering if the Posca will chip off as easily with harder pencils; there is only one way to find out! I watched this and your next video out of sequence, so I was watching you posca-ing up the veins of a blackberry leaf wondering what the heck you were doing! All is clear now. Thanks Lori. By the way, my desk is way worse than yours!

great tutorial thanks

Thank you for the videos.

Wonderful. Ty.

This has been very interesting, but what is Posca?

what books are you using you have a lot of video that I love but I want to buy some of the coloring book's , if I can find them , Thank you, Tammy in Ga. LOVE LOVE your work ,

I needed this one

A cluttered desk is a sure sign that work is getting done. Color on!

My new word, posca... Thanks

Looks like my desk!

When you were showing the veins on the leaves I thought you said you take some pasta! With the shaking noise I thought you had put dry pasta in a tin and was shaking that until I saw the pen! Are you saying pasca? If so what is it? Looks like tipex correction fluid to me.

Ok. Just gotta say….when you’re brand new….you hear “pasta” in gonna take some pasta!!!!! I just added this in case someone needed a laugh. Yes I’m new but I learn fast usually …… 🤭🤫🤐

New to your channel Lori, and wondering if you’d mind explaining what paska ( not even sure how to spell it, lol ) is.... never heard of it... loved your tutorial on leaves and as a Canadian, your accent is a delight, makes me smile... is it a Brooklyn accent? That’s my best guess.... thanks for giving such great instructions.

My art mamaleh♥️

Miss I m trying to find out ,what is called white pen you r using in your coloring? Please help me

At the beginning on doing the leaf veins you mentioned using something that sounded like "Pausca," and I don't know what that is. Could you tell me the proper way to spell it and what it is, please. Thanks, Dee

Can you share with me the brand, etc. of the electric pencil sharpener that you use? Thanks!

Hello Lori, I realized after watching a lot of videos on coloring. I need to take a class on color theory. I had no idea what the Prismacolor greys were used for? Do you have recommendations for on-line classes during this pandemi? Most appreciated.

❤️❤️
