Oh my gosh, this is fun! Type A person here who has her pantry alphabetized and fronted like store shelves. I’m still cringing inside, but I’m pushing myself forward. What an amazing teacher you are - “unexpected opportunities” sounds so much more encouraging than “mistakes” does. I’m so thankful you have years of saved videos because I’m bingeing like an obsessed woman here!!! Thank you, dear! “Old dogs” can learn new things! You’re keeping my retired mind supple and bringing me joy!

Btw I found my 6b worked the best, I thought I’d prefer the 12 b I have because it’s the softest I own but nope, 6b was amazing. Anyway tyty again so much for the lessons, you’re a joy to learn from!

I love your way of teaching.I always get so much inspiration. I do a lot of graphite drawing and just starting with watercolours but I’ve always used the “H” pencils for light drawing application and “B” pencils for heavier darker shading and this is consistent with the drawing courses I’ve done.
@KristyRice 11 ай бұрын
Yes absolutely that is a solid, classic approach. I just find I’m prone to making indents in my paper with the h pencils as the lead is so much harder :)

So - I tried practicing your technique using the shape of the third leaf and a mechanical pencil (and also the nib of a fine point gray marker - I never liked the color) and I am SO ECSTATIC! I have only painted two bracts so far and I CAN'T wait to keep going! Thank you!

First time he talked to me about it so of course I dropped everything, went out to the garden to select some leaves, we peeled some crayons and did some leaf rubbings. So fun. Then we watched the rest of your video. Love your fun spirit. I’ll have to try this sometime! My kids would like it too.
