Great! I began by copying drawings for a bit. Now I love to do abstract line drawings of flowers and then I go on to watercolor. Sometimes they are quite nice and I’m amazed. Many times they go in the recycle bin (bookmarks, etc.), but they are always a blast. When I began, I couldn’t draw stick figures! Thanks for the encouragement.
I loved this. I tried it on a round piece of watercolor paper. Made my watercolor flower a little too big - but then I just added a few extra layers of leaves...it looks so cool. The reverse watercolour idea is awesome. Thank you for sharing this....
We can only imagine how gorgeous your painting turned out. We love how you experimented with this project and had your own make it work moment when creating. Thank you for tuning in and allowing us to be on your creative journey with you!!
We LOVE that you turned this into a Mother's Day card, what great idea. So glad you enjoyed this project. Thank you for tuning in and painting with us!!
Hahahaa, I just said do not touch that bottom left leaf and you say it too, like you heard me :)))) beautiful project! it inspires me! hugs from Romania!💞
Great minds think alike. 😉 How cool that we're able to create alongside you from Romania! That is so, so cool. Thank you for tuning in. We're so glad you enjoyed this tutorial.
If you use a watercolor pencil in the peachy pink shade to make the placement lines, they will dissolve when you paint the wash. Keep them soft. If you press hard you will dent the paper and pigment may collect in the mark.
Isn't the wash that Sarah created in this tutorial absolutely magical. So, so beautiful! We're so glad you tuned in today, thank you for creating along with us!!
Peonies are my absolute favorite to paint! I have not yet done one in watercolor though. I am definitely going to try this with my mom. We are planning a 3 week visit together and we will be painting!
There is something just absolutely so beautiful about peonies. How fun that you and your mom get to spend 3 weeks together and that you're going to set aside painting time. We hope you have the best time painting this project together. Definitely let us know how it turns out for you both!!
Yayyy!! Reading your comment made us so happy. We are beyond thrilled that you enjoyed this tutorial and that you walked away feeling talented. Thank you for painting along with us!!
Keenen nailed it about "The show must go on. This term is a theatrical credo dating from the nineteenth century, although the idea is much older (Shakespeare used it in Henry IV, Part 1, 2.4: “Play out the play”).

You make painting so great, what ever comes out its so pretty. love watching you paint you are so real. Can you put a light back ground colors on the painting?
We're so grateful we have the opportunity to create along with you! You could totally add a background color to this painting. Experiment with how it turns out, how fun!
Thanks so much for your channel and tutorials, have been enjoying them. Can you suggest what type of light pad? Or at least what features you find to be most helpful? Things such as size, lumens, type of ruler lines, etc? I know I truly only need something basic, but always fun to have toys with a few bells and whistles. Thanks in advance fore your 2-cents on the matter.
Thank you for the wonderful compliments Terri! We are so grateful that we get to create alongside you. Here is the link to the light box Sarah used in this video. Happy creating!! www.letsmakeart.com/products/light-box-tracing-pad?Social&

I love your videos. You are such a great teacher. What kind of light box did you use and where can it be purchased? Thank you for sharing your talent.
Thank you for the wonderful compliments Terri! We are so grateful that we get to create alongside you. Here is the link to the light box Sarah used in this video. Happy creating!!

Helps o tape drawing on light board first and put painting on it then.
This is a really pretty flower!! 🌺 Are your liquid watercolors thicker than Dr PH Martin's? Thank you. 💖
Isn't this floral that Sarah brought to life just absolutely gorgeous!!🤩
The Dandelion Co. paints are comparable to Dr. PH Martin in thickness.
What light box do you recommend? What brand and wattage of lights please? I’m from Canada…
I really want to make this project but the link to the outline seems to be broken 😭
