I did this, it took me 50 minutes not 5, and my hummingbirds look like drag queen ducks!

Love your comment!
This tutorial helped me get back to painting after seven months--thank you!
I've painted for fun for most of my life, and it never ceases to amaze me how you often come across someone like Ellen who teaches you something nice and simple and adds to your enjoyment.. thank you Ellen 😊
So fun! I am a brand new painter and I was able to recreate these reasonably well. Thank you!!
I’m only watching this for the first time a year after you first posted this and it’s exactly what I needed to see to get me painting again after a few weeks of doing none!
Love your style of painting and the way you teach! Thank you! 🌸💕

Such a lovely piece. My favorite thing in summer watching all those birds fight over feeders in my yard.
Very pretty birds😊
This was so fun!!!!
Love this. I am trying to doodle while on my lunch. I attempted this. My bird is a little on the thin side. Lol, I painted it with the vivivia color sheets, so my colors are bold . Still, it's a fun practice . Thanks for the idea and tutorial.

I can’t thank you enough! You hit the nail on the head because I got supplies for Christmas and am intimidated to try anything other than a rose and a galaxy. Just learning at age 55 and am grateful to have found you here and on Tiktok! Excited to learn more!! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you 🥰

Love how you make it look so easy and fun. I am such a perfectionist and I have to learn how to be more loose and have more fun. I get overwhelmed and then I do nothing. Got to get more daring and you really help with that. Did a lot of your Christmas designs as Christmas cards and loved all of them. Thanks for making painting look and feel fun. Can’t wait to try these darling birds.
Love these!
I did it! Thanks for giving me the confidence! 🙂
Ellen, those little fellas are just precious and so fun. I’m glad to hear that you are going to be doing detailed flowers in the tutorials to come, I look forward to that! You truly are gifted and I appreciate you sharing!
I started painting last summer ( 1 year ago). Hummingbirds are my favorite animal and I’m always thankful for a new perspective and tutorial on how to paint or draw these amazing creatures. Thank you for your channel and your teaching! When I retire, I’m going on one of your watercolor trips! Mark my words!
Love these hummingbird and flowers 😊
Thanks so much Ellen for this wonderful upload. Im trying so hard to create a bd card for my friend and so Im practicing these lovely cuties. Thanks so much
Currently watching a snow storm outside … YOU saved the day Ellen by bringing back some summer ❤ Thank you so very much!
Awesome thank you for making it so easy ..I did it !!!
I loved this. X
Thank you for making your drawings so easy to see! That is only reason I enjoy your tutorials. 😍
So much fun… love the hummingbirds!!🤗🥰💖💖💖
Will try definitely! No more fear! Lol thanks a lot!
Sweet, I love yours
Love this!
Love the sound effects almost as much as the pretty birds 😊
I love this! I am going to give it a try with my cobalt green, opera rose, red, and maybe some iridescent gold etc. 😊

Love it! Total beginner here and you make learning to paint so much fun. Thank you Ellen!
I LOVE THIS. hummingbirds made easy. 🎉
I am new to watercolor painting, as in i opened the brushes up right before i gave this tutorial a whirl...it took me a lot longer than the video, as I would pause, rewind and replay as i learned. I am thrilled at how my first painting turned out, and i appreciate your easy to follow style and flow! Looking forward to watching and learning more! THANK YOU!!
I pained along with this tutorial. I very much enjoyed the process but my painting looks nothing like yours! LOL But I had fun and I will try again. Thanks!

Thank you, Ellen! I love this tutorial, and before today, I had thought that hummingbirds were too difficult for me to attempt painting. Your teaching style is great!
I have been dying to try a hummingbird and never knew where to start! Thank you so much for your explanation and assurance that we can just go with the flow! Beautiful painting!
My favorite bird, thanks for showing me how to draw and paint them!
Thankyou! I can't wait to paint these beautiful birds!
Wow so cool ❤
Love this tutorial!!
Thank you so much! Super helpful for beginner me. ❤️
Beautiful and fun😊
Beautiful ! Thank you for the video
Love the way you just boldly started blobbing at the edges with all sorts of colours! Looks amazing like that. I'd love to see more tutorials on that kind of thing, backgrounds, background colours, etc.
Thank you Ellen you are fabulous and help me feel like painting everyday!
Thank you! Great tutorial.
Just love it, thanks for sharing
Very nice illustration . . showing 😊
Realy great and beautiful birts.Great job.I will try it like you shoved.Thanks
I did this with some shimmery watercolor set from Micheal's and I really love how they turned out! They're so shimmery and beautiful! Thanks for the watercolor hummingbirds! I'm still getting used to looser/lesser perfect type art and can be overcritical of my own work before it's even done. Off to follow more of your tutorials soon!
Loved painting this little bird along with you! Thank you! You are amazing!
What pretty little guys! How lucky we are to have them for inspiration! Many thanks!
Hermosos colibrí, gracias por enseñar 🪻
So much fun! Thanks for helping me to loosen UP!
Thank you for so generously sharing your talent and in such a relaxed manner. I'm hooked on Ellen Crimi-Trent videos!
I really want to create this. I am new to watercolor. Have yet to make an actual painting. Got supplies for Christmas. This is just so beautiful!
Perfect! I have never used water colors but have always been very serious about each brush stroke. You have given me a much better, enjoyable and calming feeling to try my hand at giving it a go. Thanks
Thank's Ellen! Love. Your paintings and your teaching❤🎉
