I love Beatrix Potter's illustrations. Many of the drawings in storybooks I read when I was a kid inspired me to do art myself. Love Tasha Tudor & Garth Williams work as well..👍

For even more inspiration: If you don't know her check out "Ruth Koser Michaels". She was a German illustrator and did hundreds of fairy tale illustrations. I absolutely adore her style.

That turned out adorable. Mission accomplished, I think it fits very well to the style of Beatrix Potter. I liked your insights on realistic art and illustrative art too about the outlines and shadowing. Thanks for the wonderful video!

It looks wonderful, Valerie. I love everything Beatrix Potter, so this piece was right up my alley. Mr. Chickadee looks snug and warm and ready for take-off. Curious to see what you’re going to do next.

I think i broke my laptop slamming down the left touch pad button when i saw the title haha. I love Beatrix Potter! She is one of my fave authors of all time and i even did my final art project on her work. I cried when my mam told me one year she was taking me to Windermere in the lake district, UK (luckily a couple of hours where i live) because she knew how much i loved her work, and we went to the Beatrix Potter museum and to the house where she lived. Sorry i got carried away, i get too excited when its something im passionate about. But yes do more in this series!

Hi Valerie, I love this, what a great idea of a series. I am looking forward to seeing more of your inspirations. You are definitely one of mine. I also am fond of my late mothers art too. As for others, Studio Ghibli for sure, Disney- Tom Bancroft for sure, Beatrix Potter, there are others but their names escape me. I definitely want to try doing this myself as I find there are things I want to work on too that I struggle with. Also my color theory teacher said and made me do the same about not buying black. I haven’t since as it is fun to mix colors but haven’t fully explored it with watercolor but definitely with gauche. Your piece turned out lovely and definitely captured Beatrix Potter’s style into your own.

I love this little chickadee!! He’s so cute! Definitely can say that you are one of the artists I’ve looked up to most. I have a few different artists that I really like and I want to do something similar as you did here and replicate their style if I can. Maybe I’ll learn some new techniques and take something away that helps improve my own art

You are incredibly talented……l have been doing little books for our severely autistic grandson who goes to horse riding….the little book was to teach him all about riding horses and l used your tutorials to teach myself how to draw horses…..the little books were a real success with the class. Now l am doing a book about his two pet rabbits and here you are again! With all the help l need! You are amazing! Thank you!

I'm going to ask such a beginner question but the red pencil is there a reason you use red for the first sketch? and is that a special type of red pencil that rubs out easy? Thank you so so much for your videos it's really inspiring me. ❤
