Painted two of these for sympathy cards. Lovely and fitting for that application. Two different sizes using watercolor cards I had in hand. Thanks for fun and easy ideas.

What a beautiful painting I love when you do sketches instead of outlines 💕🦋but I’m not going to lie I miss Keenan💕💕🦋

Even though this is a great tutorial I still had a very hard time and don't like how my painting came out. In future videos, could you add information about how much water to use for each step?

You said the shadows are darkest where? Sorry I missed it.
