Painting from life is a great way to sharpen your observation skills and enjoy nature's beauty a little more. In this demonstration, I show you how I paint an iris in loose, vibrant watercolour.

It's been an ongoing surprise - and battle - for me to create loose watercolours. Who would believe that letting go and being light and fluid was such a challenge? But it is. This tutorial is fabulous and gives me something to aim for. Your lightness of touch is hard-won and requires practice and discipline, for me at least. Thankyou for sharing this.

Thank you for this video. I've been trying to paint Irises and it was nice to hear you say they are not like other flowers so they are more challenging. Made me feel better why I'm having trouble. also very helpful about when to add the yellow. I like your style and ease when correcting a part of the painting.

@ivychat9459 6 жыл бұрын

Angela Fehr That is so true!! I'm getting more confident. I made a yellow Iris today which really looked good. Thank you again for all the tips you gave while painting. Very helpful.

@ralucabroch1069 4 жыл бұрын

Stopped watching when you killed the bug. He was probably on the iris as you picked it up and unlucky to meet human cruelty. If he bothers you, take it gently on a piece of paper and set it free outside- Life is (for me) greater than art. A person's a person, no matter how small". Dr Seuss

@guestsmith1795 8 жыл бұрын

I was watching this lesson with rapt attention until the artist squished the little bug running across her paper like it had less rights to live than she did. She could've just blown it off her paper and onto the ground...but instead, she chose to just squish it without a thought. How is art from the heart possible with no heart tall. So I stopped watching.
