    Harriet, Bluebirds are the most gorgeous of birds. I feel I have been truly blessed each time I get a glimpse of one. They are the most amazing blue when the sun hits just right. It’s my prayer that you will see one soon. Your bluebirds made my day today-thanks so much.

    Love these! They are truly such sweet and friendly birds! Every year we get them in our nest boxes, then in winter they bring the babies back to our feeders and water source. I adore the different poses you’ve chosen and the blue shade is spot on. The ones I attempted to do with watercolor were not good, but you have nailed it with your technique! Hope to try it soon. Thanks. Get better little 🐶 ❤️

    I’m glad I found your channel. I subscribed a while ago and have enjoyed all the tutorials I’ve seen so far. I especially liked your comments (8:14) about how the circle of water on dry paper creates a hard edge, and at the same time it allows for blending. I can see using this technique to paint lots of birds. Thank you for posting. You are just delightful. Pets for your puppy.🙏💙🌵🌵🌵🌵

    Bluebirds are lovely! I recommend you look up indigo buntings if you've never seen one. They look like a sparrow that's been dipped into a bright blue dyebath. They are really stunning when you see one on the fly in nature.

    Bluebirds are the state bird of Missouri in the US. They’re lovely little birds. I love your take on them. Our robins aren’t like the cute little bird you have. They’re rather clunky. 😂

    Thank you for your sharing, I think to draw a beautiful bird, besides being skillful and creative, the way of coloring is very important. I see you are very good at mixing colors, but I don't know how you scale, can you tell me the ratio of watercolor? Thank you very much.

    You captured them well. We have two different kinds of Bluebirds here is British Columbia. Every bird species has its own call but sometimes it is so sad to hear the mournful call of the male bluebird looking for his lady friend. He then entices her to the nest box (at our house anyway) and she does the decorating...grass carpet... fluffy down blanket. He perches himself on a nearby branch and periodically check on the progress. If it is not up to HIS standards he pulls out all the nesting material and she has to start again. Hmmm...We witnessed one occasion when, the now liberated female said, "if you don't like do it yourself" and flew away. The bottom left bird looks just the like the comment. A little anthropomorphic? And to young Crumble.. Get better and enjoy the attention. Cheers

    This is a great project for anyone who wants to try out loose watercolour painting. I think the most important thing is to know that progress comes in practise and very few people get it right first time so beginner or otherwise, this is perfect!

    They are adorably beautiful.❤️ (We just started seeing the Eastern Bluebird a few weeks ago here in New England, US. They are my fav.) I just started watching your tutorials and I love them. I even think I’m going to give it a go. Question-how are you preventing your blue and yellow/orange from mixing and turning into a green in this project?

    It’s first about not having too wet a page with the first shape. Then you will notice when I add the blue I paint it in as few brush strokes as possible and try not to touch the orange. Then they blend together of their own accord
