This really helped me understand the looseness of flowers that you can give the impression and not I’m everything so tight. Thank you so much.

@janedoe-vn4fs Жыл бұрын

I have always wanted to paint. I even have an art room full of art supplies but I stop myself because I am so critical of myself. I almost didn't do this painting today but I did it anyway and I just loved it!! You are so laid back and the atmosphere is "everything is okay and don't sweat it." Thank you so much.

You are wonderful! Fun, funny, dryly cheerful, and a fantastic teacher. You talk about all options-smaller brushes, less expensive paint, different colors , etc. Everyone feels welcome no matter and that’s encouraging. You add joy to many a day in these tough times. 💫 The story you told recently about asking someone if they had teenagers when they criticized the electronic games made me laugh out loud. You’re practical and real. In short, you’re a gem! ❣️❣️❣️

FWIW - I would LOVE to see more videos like this but even looser if possible. I love to discover flowers in blobs of paint but I struggle with the next step(s): finishing touches, details, adding values, etc. to end up with something aesthetically pleasing. I have hundreds of first layer paintings because I have no idea how to finish them. I have no artistic background or an ability to imagine something and then create it. I am very visual and have to see every detail but then I get bogged down in detail. I hope that makes sense and it's something you'd be interested in doing as well. Thank you. Take care.

This was my first-ever watercolour painting three years ago. All I had at the time was Cotmans, an oil paintbrush and sketch paper, but I followed your tutorial and voila! I produced a passable picture! So pleased I’ve been painting ever since - with better supplies over time😀 - so thanks so much for making thevformidable approachable, Ellen!
