Instead of using a cut up piece of a credit card to scrape lines in my flower I decided I'd try using a dip pen. I really liked the effect but you can still use a credit card if you like!

And now thanks to Lindsay, we can draw with our watercolors!! Beautiful! Thank you. 😁💜👍🏻🌈
Love when you paint flowers. Thanks Lindsay
Lol cat hair ball! Lovely painting!
You’ve really outdone yourself here, Lindsay ~ just so fun and pretty! Thanks for shring it with
“I like to live on the edge” Me too! Beautiful card ❤️
That was fun, Lindsay. I painted right along with you. I saw the pen technique used on another you tube video for animal portraits. It's such an easier method, I think, than the credit card. Thanks for the fun.
Love those delicate fine lines from Mr. Scraper!
Beautiful flower.Love the pen how it scrapes.Clever idea.
Using the nib to scratch is kool. Gorgeous iris.
So pretty! I love the work with the dip pen. I like the detail but it's still organic and not as harsh as a black pen.
Wow! I like how that dip pen gave more control, but still allowed the watercolor to shine. Beautiful! You are so inspiring and I love what you do. Thank you for sharing.
I ❤️ it - you are a fearless water colorist
Good tip about the dip pen. I never thought about using it with watercolor.
The pen definitely makes the painting look more realistic.
I love your enthusiasm and most certainly, your card! Thank you so much. Great idea using the pen!!
What a fantastic idea! Makes perfect sense to use a pen!
Wow love the pen effects so much better than the card. The painting is great and very inspirational. Thank you so much for your tutorials:) x
Lindsay, the thought of this is exciting. Can't wait to try it.
Love it! I like the idea of using the dip pen and watercolor. Definitely more control than the credit card. I have to try that. Steve Mitchell recently did a review of dip pens and how they work with watercolor. Very helpful.
Love this painting. I am a big iris lover.
Beautiful picture. Can't wait to try your pen technique. It really turned out awesome.
I love the way the dip pen worked, Better then the card works and easy to hold. Looks beautiful Lendsay. I had Irises around my house that we used to live in and they are so beautiful , but ended up digging and weeding them out because they Multiply so fast and eat up the dirt ,so I ended up sharing them with the neighbors. Thanks for sharing Lindsay! I love your paintings.
Great idea using the dip pen. Love the results.
You are such fun to watch. I love the Iris! This one is so pretty!
Absolutely love the pen effects, and your enthusiasm as you discovered new ways to use it is contagious. Another something to try! I still have my Schafer pen (with ink cartridges) from high school, and I'm sure that will work. Can't wait!
I just restarted your loose flowers course; I was only at Lesson 2 when my 'series of unfortunate incidents' began last Fall and I had to stop. This tutorial looks like it would fit right in with the course. I love the idea of the pen as a scraper. It would give me more stability for fine lines for stamines , etc. Thanks for adding more ideas for loose florals- I just love them!
Love the effects you got with the pen. Irises were one of my Mother’s favorite flowers and I think of her fondly whenever I see them. I would have loved to make something like this for her. This painting is lovely, thank you, Lindsay.
Love this painting Lindsey, I really like the effect from the dip pen.
Thanks for doing a shorter painting for the summer!
Love the pen!!! Can't wait to give it a try. I have plenty from my calligraphy days.
It never occurred to me to feel for the drag of the correctly loaded brush! You are brilliant! Thank you.
Such a beautiful watercolor card, someone would be so lucky to get that card in the mail. I love the lines scratched in with the pen, beautiful lines and depth.
Love the beautiful iris and LOVE the dip pen, such great effects!
Yes, I love using my pen nibs in paintings!
Irises are one of my favorite flowers. I love the looseness of your approach and the use of the dip pen to give "ink" effects! Whoo hoo! You definitely captured the spirit of these flowers! What a nice card for someone!
I love the smell of irises too!
Thank you for this video. I have been wanting to learn how to paint irises. I love the dip pen! Thank you again 👩🎨🎨
I love using my dip pen with watercolors. It’s really fun and looks very great! :) love your Iris and this video,
This was fun to watch Lindsay. Thanks so much for creating it and sharing it with us.
The dip pen is really cool, and it's so neat to hear an artist get so excited about a new thing. Lovely card. Thanks for sharing.
Yellow ocher is the work horse of your paint set🥰.
It's so light and pretty! Beautiful watercolor painting. :)
Pretty Iris, Lindsay. So much fun! Thank you. Long or short, I appreciate all your watercolour tutorials! 🎨🤗❤️🇨🇦👩🏻🎨
I'm excited listening to you tonight. Your positiveness is contagious. Beautiful painting.
Yep... Love it! What a brilliant idea!
Love all of it! Love the pen effects!❤️
Your driving me nuts! everything you make I want to try, but too little time lately, I just love all your tips and videos, keep up the good work
Yep!
The pen is the bomb!! Love it and have to try this!!!!! Can’t wait to try this flower...you always make it look easy. Mine won’t be near as pretty but it’s still fun!!
So need to try the dippy pen action. Love this.
It’s pretty and very colorful
Wow, that's beautiful! Funny that you would choose an iris today. This morning I sat down with my sketch journal and drew an iris. Got company, went away for the day, so tomorrow I want to try to put some color on my sketch. Thinking of using my watercolor brushes or my new watercolor pencils and a waterbrush. Decisions!!!
Try both!
I love it. Definitely going to try the dip pen technique.
Another great card. Keep up the great work.
A good old fashioned Lindsay flower watercolor: fun, beautiful and attainable for my skill level! Just what I needed to boost my summer behind when I'm saying I'm too busy to craft! Happy Summer Lindsay! 🌞🏵️🐝🐞🦋🏖️ PS that pen tip is a BRILLIANT idea! Way better curves and angles in the lines!
I love watercolour pans and have bought several now just love them I would put the love on the same par as a box of chocolates to a chocoholic" I love a tin of paints! My aim by the end of this year is to fill a book with flower sketches and watercolours. I keep going off in different directions but have decided to concentrate on this area.
I am going to try the technique with pansies also..Absolutely love it!!!
Love the calligraphy pen technique. Funny enough I got one the other week so I can give it a go 😃
Very nice Lindsay!
I love when you do iris tutorials. I’ve learned so much from them. Thank you!
Excited to try this!
Love this ! So beautiful!
LOVE the dip pen!
I NEVER thought I'd hear you say you loved a tool more than the credit card scraper!🤣🤣
I was surprised too!
I love the effect when using the pen and I love the iris painting, Lindsay!
This is brilliant! I love the idea of using the pen to achieve the vein and texture details. Perfect. And this Iris just blow me away. Thank you!
I love it and I love your way of teaching thank you ❤️
So beautiful!
I love how you used the pen! And the timing of this is like you knew what I was thinking.
Last week I was going to buy a pen and some ink for a project I wanted to try & I talked myself out of it because it was going to be a one use type of thing. I've tried to do lettering in the past and it's not my thing. Now I'm definitely going to pick one up because I will use it for watercolor - I love when you show use multiple ways to use supplies!
Beautiful. I really like Turner watercolor. I purchased the 18 set and it was my first professional grade watercolor set. I think they are an under recognized brand.
I agree!
Nice Lindsay!!!
Yay! Love easy stuff! Thank you!
Now I have to go get a pen because that is fabulous! Does anyone else ever wish they could just hang out with Lindsay for a day so they could SEE her brain in action??? I think I’d be completely worn out my noon but maybe I could absorb some of that fearlessness by osmosis!!
Love it! I’m going to find my dip pen and try this!
Great as usual a wonderful piece
I absolutely love the fountain pen idea, this picture is beautiful Lindsey!!
Very pretty
I love this - will definitely try it
The dip pen is a good idea and it seems to work well. I have quite a few, calligraphy didn't work for me very well so I will try this, it seems to work better than the credit card. Thank you Lindsay
Nice and fun! I must say that Yellow Ochre is one I love as well, and oddly, Payne's Gray..that's one I really love...oooh...that blu-ey gray! Yum. Lol. Thanks for another great share! Yes...love it; going to have to buy one of those pens.
LOVE the effect the pen gives! Fabulous illustration 😃
Oh my I love it .
Love the dip pen! I will try it . You always inspire me, especially when I feel intimidated by my blank. Thank you
Awesome. I have a dip pen. Woohoo. Thanks Lindsay. Loved that 5ml 18 color set of Turner so much I ordered the 15ml tunes on sale and made a combined M Graham and Turner go to pallet. It's the one I use the most.😁😘
So pleasant to watch you create a beautiful card in such a short time. I hope to be up to that ability *some day*! ✨💖✨
Love this.
I loved this painting Lindsay. I was going yeah do the splatters. I enjoyed seeing the pen I will have to get one to try. Thanks for sharing.
such talent !
Hi Lindsay 👋 pretty Iris flower painting so different very nice ....☺️🦋🐕 x
I LOVE IT! thanks for sharing
Gorgeous! Love the use of dip pen! Regarding cats drinking paint water, mine do too. As there can be toxic substances in watercolour paints - I think they're things like cadmium, cobalt, phthalocyanine, etc - I keep two jam jars of water in a plastic ice cream container so I can place the lid on firmly if I'm ducking out to the kitchen to make a coffee. The ice cream container also helps prevent spillage as I'm pretty clumsy! Lol.
Love this!
Love your iris! I use to grow them, and you got it perfect.
Very nice tutorial! Thank you!❤
Beautiful, ❤️ Thank you! 🌹
Love it!
I absolutely love this idea!!! Can't wait to try it. I love your videos! Thank you.
Very nice you make it look s ok easy.
Man! This was fun!! And the card’s not too shabby either 😊 TYFS!!
OMG!! I totally have to try it
Love the colours 😍 will save your video in my playlist ☺️ thank s for sharing with us
So trying this!
