    Linda, thank you. I have been playing with watercolours for just a few months and have watched untold numbers of youtubers. This tutorial is the first one that has persuaded me to slow down, not to rush into next bit before allowing drying time, and it's also the my first painting that I haven't hurriedly stuffed in a drawer! I'm really pleased with how easy it was to follow along with you and produce something I'm proud to leave out on display. Many thanks.

    Hey Linda, this was amazing, I am only just starting out with watercolour and really loved how well made your video was, two things I realize this is from one year ago and someone else might have given you this idea, instead of all that puffing with a straw they do make an artist's puffer but they are an added expense, my friend told me she uses a kids bath toy, one with the hole underneath so you can puff any way you want to and not risk getting lightheaded, also a group of jellyfish is called a Bloom, a Smack, a Brood, a Shoal or a Fluther (yes I Googled it) Thank You again I look forward to watching more of your video's, Wendy from the U.K xXx

    ​​@@lindabrownartist had been wondering too. I used paint we call "Deckweiß" in German, which h comes with the usual school water colors, that are more like gauche. The Deckweiß comes in a tube and is more pasty. From it's smell, I guess it's some kind of water soluable acrylic paint. Thanks, once again, for this splendid tutorial.

    Definitely, I have painted quite a few canvases using acrylic and this theme. I have had jellyfish as the subject, and also dragonflies with transparent wings. However, adding lots of water to acrylic, reduces the fastness of the medium, making the paint unstable. You will need to apply a few coats of varnish to protect the artwork. I love varnish on acrylic, it definitely brings out the colours. I use a Matt varnish but of course any could be used, personal choice ⭐️
