I appreciate your video and also your thoughts as I struggle to loosen up with my florals. I am so tight I about squeak. I grow a gorgeous huge flower garden so I have plenty of inspiration but I overwork terribly and expect perfection, and due to life events have gotten out of practice. I love your work. No one is buying anything these days because they cannot afford to eat, sadly. You are fabulous and so is your art.
Thanks for explaining as you go. It helps me understand the “why” of paint strokes.
Thank you Sandy ❤ I love loose watercolor paintings but really strugle to let them be loose 😅 I seem to get stuck with details anyways. I'm gonna try this. Loving your art ❤ Best wishes from Finland 🇫🇮
Thank you. I think I will use masking fluid to make it easier on myself
I finally did the polychromos hex chart with my 60 set.
Thanks for this video, Sandy. Your demo is so helpful to me for working with white flowers. BTW I tend to miss details…like the 30 days of sketching is "watercolor"…😂 I've just been trying to do a little pencil sketch in my book each day. The good news–I'm actually sketching each day! Thanks for all the inspiration.
Thank you x
I really enjoyed the progression of your flowers. You gave me some great ideas. As always!
I liked everything about your layering: colors, brushstroke direction, shadows, extra color zap at the end. And this is just me but I liked also the graphic touches: the dots in this painting and the careful bisected leaves of an earlier 2nd pair. Can't think how to include it in this comment — at 6:07 in the progress bar, the painting on the R.
