This was my first butterfly tutorial and I loved it. I love how you break everything down so clearly. Thank you.
Oh I’m so glad you enjoyed it! I was just thinking I needed to paint another butterfly or moth soon… something about the snow makes me long for warmth and even insects, haha
How beautiful!
Thank you, Jane!
I saw this video right now and it was awesome ❤️ loved it...
The end result is breathtaking!
Thank you! So glad you like it 🥰🥰🥰
Love this! Looking forward to trying it. Absolutely beautiful. Subscribed 💛

Love this butterfly! Thank you!
Oh I’m so glad!! Thank you for the encouragement 💕
Yes! I like this 2 part format.
So glad it was helpful!!
Two videos for sure. Your style is just perfect ❤️
I’ll definitely include some in future videos ☺️
Thank you so much for this tutorial!! It helped me understand watercolor so much.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for taking the time to leave some feedback-you really encouraged me
This is stunning. Thank you!
So glad you enjoyed it!! Thank you for the encouragement 🥰
Aww 😍 so delicate and beautiful. Love it. ❤️
Thank you! You are so kind
I'm glad I've found your channel! I'm obsessed with scientific drawing and painting, specially flowers and moths. Thanks a lot for the great tutorial! Cheers from Brazil!
Awesome! Thank you! So happy to have you here!
Gorgeous!
Thank you! These butterflies are stunning-not too hard to make them look amazing 🤩
Thank you so much - this is very helpful!
Oh good! I"m so glad! Did you find this two part video method better? So that I can go into more detail for the color mixing? Or do you prefer the "all in one" videos?
Magnifica bravissima!!!
So very beautiful!!
Thank you! These butterflies are amazing!! 😍
Beautiful! Thank you 🌷
So glad you found the video helpful!!
Is so nice to see you doing the details in real time. Sometimes I tend to speed up my drawing process because I keep seeing videos of artists drawing super fast 😅.
After seeing your butterfly videos I feel comfortable enough to draw the wings of a fairy drawing I have kept in stand by for a long time :) 💕
Oh I’m so glad! Yes the process is super slow and careful (at least for me). Sometimes I speed it up to respect your time but I always try to let you know if I do!
This is so beautiful and like your explanation on the video, its great to hear your thought process while you paint :-)
So glad that it was helpful and not just confusing! hahaha! If you heard what is going on in my head most of the time you might think I am crazy, haha!
Thanks a lot
I was waiting for this since so long
Yes, it has been a long time coming! So sorry-it's what I have come to expect with newborn twins and a toddler in the house! Sleep usually wins on my "to do" list :)
Fabulous, thanks
So glad you enjoyed it and found it helpful!! 🥰🥰🥰
Beautiful glasswing butterfly
Thank you so much! I can see that you know your butterflies ☺️
Very beautiful!! 😍😍😍🙌🏼🇧🇷
Thank you so much! 😊
I love this format with the two videos! Your videos are really helpful and relaxing to watch, they just make me want to grab my brush and start painting! Thank you :)
Oh I’m so glad you find this motivating! I’ll definitely look into more color mixing videos in the future ☺️
you all probably dont care but does anybody know a trick to log back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow lost the account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can offer me!
@Connor Jameson instablaster =)
@Jimmy Trenton thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and im in the hacking process now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Jimmy Trenton It did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my ass !
Wow😍this is so wonderful
Thank you so much!
Beauteous, thanks for sharing
I’m so glad you enjoyed the tutorial!! Thank you for taking the time to encourage me
You are doing great!
Thank you darling!
So beautiful
Oh thank you! That means a lot to me
Cithaerias Phantom ♡
I really love this, this is looks real
Oh thank you! I loved painting this one-it was intimidating but so worth working up the courage, hah
Would love to hear your thoughts on this format! Two videos (more detail on color mixing) or One video (less on color but it's included)?
Love it! How do I subscribe?
I love it both ways, since one is teaching me more about colors, whereas the other is more practical, since I can see in which order I'm supposed to do things. I believe, though, that for beginners it might be a little confusing having to different videos.
I’m a beginner but I love the color mixing. So both videos. More is always loved!
cool, ... Very inspiring for my content....👍👍👍
OMG😭😍
Hope you loved it!!
Really great! Thank you!! Is it possible to paint a transparent object over a solid object? I was thinking of painting these transparent wings over a leaf.. Thank you again!!
You can, but it will be difficult to see. I recommend gauche or something a little more opaque so that you can see the elements that you to highlight. Otherwise it will just look like a leaf with an oddly dark spot and slightly pinker areas
Beautiful! I have a question about the use of the reference photo. Did you ask permission to use it? Could you sell the painting? I really struggle with what to paint, but I’m afraid of painting others photography. Thank you, and again it is beautiful!
If you are planning to sell a piece then you should definitely seek out the photographer and ask for permission/pay for the rights to sell the artwork.
I work with local photographers and have contacted several about individual images and have had good experiences.
My personal “work around” is that I create my own compositions by manipulating multiple reference images. You likely wouldn’t be able to even find my reference images by looking at my finished “for sale” pieces.
It’s a grey area, but I figure if someone can’t tell that one was used as a reference for the other, then you’re probably okay.
Do you work on Arches watercolor cold press paper?
This piece was done on Strathmore 300 series watercolor paper (cold press). I have used Arches hot press and enjoyed it but I haven’t used their cold press yet. Strathmore is usually cheaper and I’m happy with the quality so I haven’t been tempted to switch yet. ☺️
Thank you for tutorial. How this butterfly is called?
Thank you! I believe it’s called a blushing phantom. It’s been a few years so I might be a little off, hah
i have a question if this meathod can be used on wood? because i got a wood cutout from dollar tree in the shape of a butterfly i want to paint and design it and make it look perfect
Watercolor might not work as well but you can definitely paint on wood! Maybe test it out on the back with different paints before you dive in and fully commit
@Blushed Designs - Do you have social media handles?
I do! instagram.com/blusheddesign is where I am most active at the moment.
I can’t open the reference photo. It says it’s not safe :/
Oh dear! We’ll if you Google “blush phantom butterfly”, similar photos (maybe even better) should come up!
@@katrinacrouch i got it! Thanks a lot
So beautiful and delicate..liked so much...and invite you to see my simple painting
So glad you enjoyed it!
