Thank you so much! ☺️ I am very happy to read that and that motivates me to create more tutorials! Thank you for watching and being here.

Thank you so much!! 🥰🙏🏼

So glad to read that! :D Thank you so much ☺️

Thank you so much! 🤗

I am so glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching 💚☺️

Thank you so much 🥰🤗

Thank you so much and thank you for watching! 🙏🏼💚☺️ Yes, lift more than once always. Making sure the water and paint are not too watery helps in easier lifting, paint travels less then after lifting. Lifting just before the paint dries, when it's damp, gives crispier lines but ofcourse always the timing isn't so in my experience and that's okay. I've never tried with a credit card edge, it sounds like a great way, would give sharp lines. Yes, I've never used a razor knife, I have the same fear that I'll cut my paper! 😅

Hey David! Thank you so much! Happy to read that! Big hugs to England! 🤗

Thank you so much! 🤗

Thank you so much. Thank you for watching 😁☺️ It took me around 1 hour to paint the top (bottom in the video actually 😅) leaflet. I used Rosemary 344 size 6 brush and DaVinci Nova Synthetic size 3/0 brush. Plus a small flat size 1 brush by Brustro for the lifting at the end.

@@artbyavantika Thank you. Rosemary brushes are great.

Thank you so much! 🤗 You mean shadow cast by the leaf on the white surface? I'll do a tutorial on that when I paint a petal or leaf next 😃

Most welcome, thank you for watching! 🥰😁 Great ideas, thank you. I'll do blueberries first and then red rose. Red rose will take some time as it'll take more time to paint, record and edit and will be a longer video.

@@artbyavantika no worries dear.. Love to see more tutorials from you 😍🌹💕

@@Gracejaison I have planned many more. This year I'll be focusing on posting on KZfaq too 😁❤️ thank you ☺️🙏🏼

Thank you so much! Yes, this is hot pressed paper. This is the Etchr hot pressed sketchbook.

@@artbyavantika Thank you so kindly for your response. You're the best!

@@crystalheart9 you're most welcome! 🤗 Thank you 🥹 Big hugs, happy painting and have a great May ahead!

Thank you! 🤗☺️🥰

Thank you so much!🥰 Rosemary 344 size 4 and DaVinci nova synthetics size 3/0

Rosemary 344 sizes 4 and 2, Rosemary 307 size 0 (or DaVinci nova synthetics 1570 size 0), Rosemary small eradicator. Recently started using Winsor and Newton professional synthetic sable round pointed 4 and I like it too.

Thank you so much!🙏🏼😄 Yes that's a good suggestion, thank you. I couldn't find the music option while uploading from phone. I will see and upload from computer next time!

Thank you! 🤗

First of all, I'd like to say wow well done on painting it over 12 times, that matters a lot and shows perseverance and determination, you will get the desired result soon too 🙌🏼💛 I must say that this video is an older one, so it is a bit sped up. I don't have the original now. Now I majorly post real time clips in my videos here. I made a tutorial for a full rose leaf in real time with voiceover on my Patreon so I will try to post some real time clips from that over here on KZfaq, that might be more helpful. Also, if you'd like, you can send me your rose leaf painting's photos and I'd love to look at it and help you out with some feedback. You can message it to me on Instagram, my handle - @artbyavantika or email it to me at artbyavantika96@gmail.com

@@artbyavantika Thank you for replying! I will check out your other videos. I know I have seen a few in the past because your voice is so soothing and I never forget a voice that relaxes me like yours does lol! I will email two pics to you. I did it several more times, changed the process a little and they came out the closest to decent but still not like yours! I have today off and will be doing leaves again lol. I have been doing watercolor for a while now and am changing my strategy. I am so concerned with wasting paper that if I try a project and it doesn't work out I try a new one. I felt it would be too costly to keep doing the same thing over and over but I am not progressing as much as I should be. Recently I told myself I will never get good unless I keep trying a project until I do it well so I was determined to do this leaf come hell or high water lol!! I think I had over 15 versions in total which is a lot of money but I really, really love this leaf! Thank you so much!

@@cslattfri oh my, thank you, I am so happy that you find my voice soothing!! I will be focusing more on creating videos for KZfaq this year, I know I don't have a lot of videos on here as most of my time the past ~2 years was spent on creating full tutorials for patreon. I promise, more videos with my voice + real time clips are coming to youtube (I wanted to do 1 per week but I'll start with 2 a month for now). I do understand that feeling, when I was practicing a lot and trying to improve, I used to worry about wasting expensive supplies but that mindset didn't lead to much progress for me. So I started practicing one thing more times, covering the whole sheet with multiple attempts of that subject to use up as much space on the paper as possible. Keep practicing and painting and you will see results. I am happy that you changed your strategy. This rose leaf was actually painted on a sketchbook. Try Etchr hot pressed sketchbook, good to practice on, can paint on both sides, I painted this leaf on Etchr hot pressed sketchbook only. I received your email and will reply back. Thank you so much, I really love this leaf too! You might like the spinach leaf I just recently painted and recorded the process of, similar to this one and a level below this one, that one is beginner level.

@@robanks3895 yes, it is one of the very first videos I posted on KZfaq, in hindsight, I do regret not adding any sound to it. Now my videos have voiceover and music both.
