How To Paint Simple, Beautiful Watercolour Hollyhocks, loose watercolor flower tutorial Floral Demo
Ойын-сауық
/ loisdavidsonart www.etsy.com/uk/shop/OwlsAndF... I'm continuing to try to learn how to paint loose flowers, and today I'm painting some beautiful old fashioned Hollyhocks using just 3 colours, all Cotman tube paints in Gamboge hue, Lemon yellow and Ultramarine blue. But Hollyhocks come in all sorts of beautiful colours, so use any you like!
I use various brushes, see video, but use whichever brushes you are most comfortable with. My paper is 100% cotton Saunders Waterford, cold pressed, 11" x 15"/28cm x 38cm. Thanks for watching, and happy painting!

Beautiful, Lois. I loved it all but also how you started and created the diffused background. Thank you!
I love the way you’ve gone into negative painting and creating the flower shapes by painting around them in darker tones. I did this with laurel leaves and was pleased with the result. It’s satisfying to do!Thanks!
thank you Lois, this is so inspiring, well done!

Hi Lois Just found you. Where do you get cotton paper. And what brands do use. Thank you for such a lovely demo.
do you need to leave the tape on until paint is completely dry to get the paper to re-flatten?
Looking for the small calligraphy brush that you use, can you help me? Love these holly hocks

How do you sign your work? Do you only sign the back? I’ve heard different opinions about this and was curious what you do for signatures/date. Thanks

I sign and date my work on the front bottom left of right away from the focal area so it doesn't distract, but I only sign/date paintings I sell, others it never crosses my mind to do so
What brand of calligraphy brush please. I'm buying all my supplies this weekend
