Thanks Emma for demystifying the orchid for me. I was in Hawaii visiting my daughter and took wonderful pictures of them but I have been totally intimidated by their complexity so didn't attempt to draw or paint them. After your tutorial I now feel like I can attempt drawing and painting from my beautiful pictures. Thank you for breaking the process down and simplifying it like you do. I also really appreciate the way you use the wet in wet techniques, and show how you manage the water in your brush by drying it before blending things out. I have learned so much from your approach.

Thank you, Emma. You explained the breakdown of this method so well. I just have to remind myself to slow down, let it dry (or dry it) in between and have fun!

Loved, loved, loved this tutorial! It came out same day as my own orchids bloomed, almost the same color too. I can’t wait to try this it is so beautiful! Thank you again for a great painting. Also love your new fringe. Loved seeing your son as well. He is so perfect! I have two grown sons. They grew up so fast and now living their lives. Enjoy every moment. Even the teaching times. We are all experiencing “TIME OUT” so it’s time to learn and teach. We will all look back and remember how well we handled it. Love from Florida.🏝💖

A really beautiful painting and a super lesson, thank you. I learned a great deal, and it was extra inspiring to try some of your shading techniques as I have just retired and have a "farewell" vase of lilies sitting right next to me. I do enjoy your son being included .... one of these days we'll doubtless be hearing "Mum? I can't find the car keys!" in the background, or better still "Mum! Where did you put my ultramarine?"

You have an amazing talent for taking flowers by they’re parts and putting them together on paper blending them, to look so realistic. I have no talent for drawing, but I think I can learn from you❣️( If you take requests...I would love to Learn how to paint Snow Drops. They are not very common here in Southern California, but I ordered some by mail and they grow and spread in my garden. Here and in more seasonal climates they are the first to appear in Spring. Maybe they’re more common in Canada, they are as delicate as their name.Please consider this😊

Just want you to know I have been going crazy. Literally. Not just Quarantine but serious health issues. I used to do traditional art. But haven’t felt good so been doing procreate on my iPad. My pencil broke. So I haven’t been able to do art or feel well enough to sit at my art desk. Yesterday I was so depressed I literally planned to kill myself today. Then this morning woke up a little better. Saw your tutorial and I feel like I can actually do this in bed. Your teaching style is so nice and calm and right up my alley. Thank you for taking the time to do this. You probably don’t know the lives you touch. But today you just may have saved a life cause I don’t feel the way I felt yesterday. Thank you!
