This really helped me understand the looseness of flowers that you can give the impression and not I’m everything so tight. Thank you so much.

I have always wanted to paint. I even have an art room full of art supplies but I stop myself because I am so critical of myself. I almost didn't do this painting today but I did it anyway and I just loved it!! You are so laid back and the atmosphere is "everything is okay and don't sweat it." Thank you so much.

I had so much fun making these wildflowers paintings. I made 6 of them today! I just could not stop. Thank you for your wonderful tutorial.

I suffer badly from anxiety and depression. I am a beginner in watercolor paintings. I did this one today! So fun.

yay!

Video full of life and spring. Thank you

So pretty! Love the wild and whimsical look of this one.

You're the first artists tutorials I've watched and grasped it and learned from. Thank you!

this turned out so beautiful! just a breath of spring! Thank you!

Thank you for your wildflower video. It was fun to create the flowers and add the details.

Absolutely amazing I’m going to planting my wild flowers soon now I can’t wait 😊

Beautiful. So relaxing during this difficult time. Thank you.

This looks like so much fun! Can’t wait to try this painting. I’m trying to learn to be more loose and bold with my colours. And add more contrast. Thanks again Ellen!

FWIW - I would LOVE to see more videos like this but even looser if possible. I love to discover flowers in blobs of paint but I struggle with the next step(s): finishing touches, details, adding values, etc. to end up with something aesthetically pleasing. I have hundreds of first layer paintings because I have no idea how to finish them. I have no artistic background or an ability to imagine something and then create it. I am very visual and have to see every detail but then I get bogged down in detail. I hope that makes sense and it's something you'd be interested in doing as well. Thank you. Take care.

So, so, pretty Ellen! Thank you for your talent.

So pretty and fun! Thanks Ellen!

I really appreciate being able to listen to your commentary as you paint. Thanks!

Thank you, this was fun and I love the colors! I will try again!

Beautiful! One of my favorites now. Thank you so much for your inspiration.

Ellen you always brighten my day!🌷

so glad!!

You are wonderful! Fun, funny, dryly cheerful, and a fantastic teacher. You talk about all options-smaller brushes, less expensive paint, different colors , etc. Everyone feels welcome no matter and that’s encouraging. You add joy to many a day in these tough times. 💫 The story you told recently about asking someone if they had teenagers when they criticized the electronic games made me laugh out loud. You’re practical and real. In short, you’re a gem! ❣️❣️❣️

I painted this this afternoon. It was fun and I was so pleased with the result,. I am a fan!

Thanks Ellen! Your Art is beautiful! I always look forward to seeing your videos!💜

Great instructions, thanks. I’m just starting out on my watercolour journey and learning quite a lot. I do enjoy your KZread site. Looking forward for more, thanks again…🇬🇧

Love how easy you make it sound! Makes me feel I can do it too, even at 85!!!😍

Loved painting this one! Thank you!

Yes! It brightened my day. I watched on my TV and enjoyed the instruction so much. I will watch again and paint along. You made me think I can do it! Be well. Thanks for sharing. 😊

I just LOVE this one! I am going to try this tomorrow. . . Thanks Ellen!💚

You make it look so easy! I really enjoy your tutorials and your comments.

Beautiful! Thank you!💐

Astounding how even the finishing black to the poppy’s totally brings the whole thing to life. Thanks for an easy tutorial to follow….. Hopefully………😳

It is so nice to see your face and really get to know who you are. Thank you for taking time to do your videos everyday. It helps all of us move through this difficult time. I always feel inspire to paint after watching you paint. Stay safe.

Love this Ellen! Thank you for sharing! I want to try this. Love the loose look. Definitely brightened my day! 😊

A very good tutorial. Very useful for painters who need some inspiration.

This was my first-ever watercolour painting three years ago. All I had at the time was Cotmans, an oil paintbrush and sketch paper, but I followed your tutorial and voila! I produced a passable picture! So pleased I’ve been painting ever since - with better supplies over time😀 - so thanks so much for making thevformidable approachable, Ellen!

Love your style!

Thanks so much Ellen. I love your manner. We need calm wherever we can get it these days. I can't believe how can you take a "blob" and make it into a beautiful flower.

This is one of the videos I put on to just see someone paint. But a few minutes in I couldnt help myself grabbing my brushes and painting along. It's so easy and so much fun!

Ellen you make painting approachable and fun!! I’m so glad I found you!! Thank you so much 😊

Oh. wow! Cant wait to try this! It is gorgeous! You are teaching me so much! Thanks so much!

Thank-you!

I love this tutorial! Thank you, Ellen

Love love love this tutorial. Thank you. ❤️

I did this today and it was no where near as nice as yours but yet there was something lovely about it and I love it!

This is so nice! Thank you!

This was my first watercolor painting! It actually turned out really well- thank you!!

Than You Ellen your painting is amazing.

Excited to see you at noon Eastern time. Lunch, after big walk in 10°, & art! The color you picked exactly right.

Love it. I love that water bleed look.

Beautiful!

Thank you so much for this. I have not successfully ever made a drawing or a painting. I started an explore your creativity class and next week we are paper weaving. The teacher suggested doing a water color to cut up for the weave. So I thought, what can I loose, I have to cut it up. I found you, and for the first time ever did this watercolor. SO FUN! and no, can't possibly cut it up now. Your instruction was fantastic.

You add beauty to the world Ellen!! Thanks for sharing your art :D

Loved your tutorial! You make art look so simple and inspirational. Thank you!

Wow great - Thanks so much for sharing. I like the „random“ seeming way you approach this. It makes it look soooo easy (which it is not... ). I just recently found your channel and will follow your tutorials. Thanks again.

Love this. So beautiful!

Beautiful and easy! Thanks

Very pretty! I have been away for a bit and have missed your tutorials. Thank you for taking the time to brighten our day and share your talent.

Love this! I really enjoy all your watercolor flower videos!

Another enjoyable wildflower tutorial. I learn so much each time I paint one. Thank you!

Loved this.. I am new to water colour, I love the free nature of this technique and Ellen really gets you to relax and settle into the free motion and not worrying about anything being perfect! thank you Ellen!

I always learn something new from you. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful art and helpful techniques.

Beautiful, I learned a lot, thanks ,Ellen!!

I love this! Thanks for sharing!

Loved it So pretty

Thank you for your tutorial. I'm a beginner and I appreciate you saying what brush numbers that you're using. I'm trying out brushes and doing drills to get the feel and see how things go with each of them. I love this bouquet that you made, it looks simple but I'm sure when I go to paint it I may find it very challenging. As they say that the master makes the craft look easy. 😊 💙

beautiful and fun

I love ❤️ your lessons! You break everything into do-able steps and after each lesson I have learned something AND have finished a painting instead of just practicing individual flowers. I have a very hard time painting loose and painting rows of different flowers makes it harder. Thank you for getting me out of my rut and making painting fun again. 🌸🌸🌸

This is the best tutorial on watercolors. My problem was I used too much water so it looked like I spilled a glass of water on it ! I’m doing this project today. Thank you for sharing. Nadine

One of my top favorite.

Luv!
