This rose, perhaps because of the flat brush, is so much nicer than the ones I have seen that are made by painting concentric 'c'. So glad I found you! Thank you, Jillian.
Susan I am glad you are here too! You are right the shape of the brush we select will make a difference to the type of rose we get! I m glad you are here too!
Without a doubt the most striking roses I’ve seen on TH-cam tutorials. This takes a lot of talent to bring out these roses from just a shape. This is what I’ve been searching for.
These roses are lovely, and I’m very happy to learn a technique other than the C curve. I think this technique makes a more natural, less predictable rose, so I say thank you!
I totally identify with your imposter feelings. I jumped in painting/copying flowers from TH-cam tutorials. Each time my family complemented me I thought , but it’s not from me. Yesterday I decided to start over and found your channel. I just watched your brush stroke video and started practicing. Your rose is amazing and I can see it came from you. It’s beautiful. Be proud and happy with yourself. Very encouraging to me. Thank you.
Your thoughtful words made my day. Thank you! Those imposter syndrome feelings you mentioned I have also been there and some days I still have it. Its a work in progress and I know at the end of the day - I am building my own self reliance towards painting in a way I like ;) I believe the same for u too!
Your roses are absolutely beautiful. I have painted them the conventional circular roses and never felt it appealed to me. I will try to follow along and grasp the concept that you have produced. I love roses and I've wanted to paint them more realistic instead of the circular rose.
Judith you and I have that in common with the circular roses. I also realised that those are mostly top down roses (in terms of perspective) Try these out and let me know how they turn out!
I agree 100% on your opening comments about trying to paint the roses like the instructions of a lot of artists and in the past week I’ve been trying to do just that and each time I tried to do those “swirls” with minimal space and look of a rose- i was getting more and more frustrated and totally want to give up painting roses. This technique you are using is so refreshing and a new way to try all those “speciality” brushes I’ve just collected and not used- a great way to experiment from the usual way of painting a rose! Thank you for this eyeopener technique!! Your painting turned sooooo beautiful!
Thank you for sharing your insight and also am happy to hear you can relate to how I felt about the c curve roses! I can't wait to see how you explore and play around with your brushes to come up with something uniquely you!
Thank you for noticing Melissa! And yes the evolution can also be because I used a different brush and techniques probably improved since :) It's been a journey! I am glad you are here for it!
Yes! I have had the same journey and feeling about the c curve roses 😂. I have also avoided them for the same reasons, feeling like there is nothing unique about the paintings that result. Thank you for sharing your take on this with us. I'm enjoying your channel.
Thank you, Jillian! I loved watching you work through the process and seeing you overcome the areas you felt needed improvement. For me, I sometimes quit when the painting isn’t looking “redeemable “. I’m learning it’s only paper and paint, and try to soldier on to make improvements even if it isn’t looking the way I thought it would. This was very encouraging!! ❤
Thank you!!! I am going to try and study more roses and try and find my own style for them! Also - I might prefer the flat brush to paint these roses after all ;)
Thank you for sharing what drew you to the painting! It's amazing the things you noticed of which a part of me intuitively painted it without much of a plan :)
I have a rose phoobia, I think. I've tried many times to paint a beautiful rose but I only see my mistakes. If you have conquered your reluctance to paint roses so can i. Thank you for sharing with us.
Hahaha after I did this tutorial... I didn't paint a rose for months. But I went back into it slowly. It definitely is a flower to be admired and takes alot of skill to really study and observe. I m glad to hear u want to take baby steps!
Thanks for this tutorial. I had a good time trying this and will upload later the result. I love roses, so I am one of those who always want to paint them. Good luck to your coming tutorials.
These are easily the most beautiful watercolor roses I’ve seen. They ARE really difficult to paint and I too completely shy away from them. This is a gorgeous painting. I will give them a go!
Nicole you are so kind! It's definitely still a work in progress and I hope you create your own unique take. Yes roses are so difficult! Gah glad I am not alone. I m determined to keep trying though after this video. So you might see some rose studies at some point! :)
Hi Jillian! I must have zoned out. I somehow missed that you have a TH-cam channel. I have to say I don’t like the bracket roses either. I realize I’ve been painting them that way for three years and still don’t like them! Time for me to change up technique. Also I really like that guide book you have.
I feel the same way about my skill. I got stuck painting peonies and roses and thought they looked juvenile and started to lose the satisfaction from painting. I felt like I possessed zero creativity.
Naw Jen! This just made my day! Considering I still feel like my roses are a work in progress but a big improvement from my "c-curve" Rose days... I feel happy that you went through the video and could compare it with my other videos. Thank you for making time for "me" in your creative space
I've come a long ways with watercolor in my 9 month journey except I have a block when it comes to painting roses and peonies. I understand that peonies take time however roses?? They're just not cute. So I heard about how u use a flat brush so I'm here to try.
Roses and peonies aren't my favorite either! I am still working to get to know them too. I also learnt to accept there are so many types of flowers and I don't have to paint the rose or peony 😀 give it a go any way with the flag brush and see how you like itA
This is absolutely gorgeous. I used to get really frustrated with roses, it´s now one of my favorites to paint. Guess we all find our own style of roses in the end as it´s so open for interpretations, that´s what I love about it the most, thank you for sharing your interpretation. X
I have taken some time off from painting, a strange thing to say for someone who has never been actually very successful and definitely still learning. I think that right now everything is outside of my comfort zone…but I’m recovering from an illness and hopefully as I improve my health, I will also improve my art!! Yes, I think that will happen!! Thank you Jillian!💕

YES !! i always find the C curve roses really ugly and not much like a rose at all ,these are much more beautiful are'nt they xx
@@karenstevens3384 Thank you so much! Its super nice that you are here
Without a doubt the most striking roses I’ve seen on TH-cam tutorials. This takes a lot of talent to bring out these roses from just a shape. This is what I’ve been searching for.
So glad the searches brought us together then! Enjoy the tutorial and I hope you get some pieces of info that you can add to ur own practice!

This is really magical. It's like you are a sculptor AND a painter all at once. I love the flowy feel combined with the rich shadows.
Thank u!! So glad you like it!!

Yes! Sharing our struggles strengthens the community of artists, thank you!
💯 glad that u feel me! :) thank u too for being here
Wow, your roses have evolved based on the other rose painting you displayed. They look beautifully detailed. Nice work 😊
Thank you for noticing Melissa! And yes the evolution can also be because I used a different brush and techniques probably improved since :) It's been a journey! I am glad you are here for it!
such a wonderful, inspiring video. I think your roses are absolutely beautiful
Thank you for saying so! Because I am still figuring things out with my roses :)
Yes! I have had the same journey and feeling about the c curve roses 😂. I have also avoided them for the same reasons, feeling like there is nothing unique about the paintings that result. Thank you for sharing your take on this with us. I'm enjoying your channel.
Hey I m so so glad u r here and can resonate with my rose story! I have recently decided I want to try to conquer them so will see how it goes! ;)
@brushmovement always a journey!
This painting is absolutely beautiful ❤️
Thank you for appreciating my art and being here. Means alot!!
Beatiful and creative !!!!
So kind of u!!!
All of your roses are beautiful! And I love that you are encouraging us to grow and move forward even with the things that scare us.
Hey thank u for ur kind words and I hope that you try it out too (even if it scares u haha)
Thank you so much! So encouraging to step outside my own comfort zone.
It is not easy to step out and I believe that you are doing the best you can even if its a tiny step :) I want to cheer you on!
Wow this is breathtaking .. thank you so much for spending your time with us🙏🏼
Thank u for being here too jasmine

I’m learning it’s only paper and paint, and try to soldier on to make improvements even if it isn’t looking the way I thought it would. This was very encouraging!! ❤
Yess its just paper! The biggest mantra I used to tell myself when I paing
Stunning
I love to see you just going for it and developing the roses as you go, trusting your eye. ❤
What a privilege to watch you paint these roses. Simple and stunning. LOVE the flat brush. Thank you so much for introducing it to me!
Thank you!!! I am going to try and study more roses and try and find my own style for them! Also - I might prefer the flat brush to paint these roses after all ;)
I just love the layers of your roses Jillian! And I love the faint leaves in the background with the more vibrant leaves.🥰
Thank you for sharing what drew you to the painting! It's amazing the things you noticed of which a part of me intuitively painted it without much of a plan :)
Beautiful! I love the colors! Thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks jen for being here and watching!

Haha Bracket roses are a thing for sure 😄 I love the flower color guide book. Cannot get enough of it!
@@brushmovement I think you coined a new term.
@@brushmovement Or Parenthesis Roses 🤣🤣🤣
@@kzbaby2002 hahahaa sounds extremely technical... 😆 😂
WHERE DID YOU BUY THAT BOOK?!! Your work is absolutely gorgeous 😍🤩🤩
I feel the same way about my skill. I got stuck painting peonies and roses and thought they looked juvenile and started to lose the satisfaction from painting. I felt like I possessed zero creativity.
❤
Thank u!!
Книга классная👍
Be proud of yourself - this is so beautiful!!!
Thank you Janet!! I m also happy with how it turned out!
Sorry, two voices? Bit tricky.
I’ll be giving this a go however.
Ah yes I heard there was a glitch at one part of this video. I had a hard time editing that part out so I m sorry that was distracting for ur process
FYI you're speaing over yourself and it's hard to know what you are saying in that part.
I love painting roses and the way you’ve painted them 😍😍 definitely my most favourite video on your channel! ❤
Naw Jen! This just made my day! Considering I still feel like my roses are a work in progress but a big improvement from my "c-curve" Rose days... I feel happy that you went through the video and could compare it with my other videos. Thank you for making time for "me" in your creative space
I love this so much. I have never liked watercolor roses. I just saw balls. This is very encouraging! Thank you
It’s really lovely, I’m inspired to give these a try. I loved the copper blue you used may I ask what brand it is please 🤗
Thank you for being here!! The brand of blue I am using is by sennilier called cobalt green!
I've come a long ways with watercolor in my 9 month journey except I have a block when it comes to painting roses and peonies. I understand that peonies take time however roses?? They're just not cute. So I heard about how u use a flat brush so I'm here to try.

Absolutely beautiful Jillian. Thank you!! 🌹

I was so excited to see your painting actually! Made my heart sing! Thank u for giving it a go!

Nice job! Roses are not easy for me - watching you has helped. Thank you for sharing 🙏
I m so glad that it has helped u and u r right they are a pretty but tricky subject!
So pretty! Thank you for getting me to play around with my flat brush more. 😊
Hurray for trying out the flat brush! Now u have more u can do ;) 😉
This is absolutely gorgeous. I used to get really frustrated with roses, it´s now one of my favorites to paint. Guess we all find our own style of roses in the end as it´s so open for interpretations, that´s what I love about it the most, thank you for sharing your interpretation. X
Thank you Lydia for being here and sharing your insight about the rose too. I m determined to continue trying and befriend it
