    I’ve just started in February ‘24 so I’m a real rookie but Emma is one of my favs (if not my absolute…go to artist)! She is so ‘chill’ which for a newbie like me takes away a lot of my doubts and hesitancies about delving into this medium.

    Hello! Such a cute little guy you have there 💙 I am new to watercolors. I just got winsor and newton paints and a Princeton brush. I do have to say theres a huge difference when you use the right brushes and paper! This is a hobby i do not see fading away. It is so calming and I enjoy the art that comes with it. Thanks just in time for the holiday! I also find that i like the tubes rather than ready pours. They have a much different cosistency and seem to be more manageable and easier to blend different colours.

    I have lived in encore sunshine at 2307 since 2014. I have decided I need to be close to my son in California. I have sold my little cottage and will be leaving here on the 16th. I will miss the park and the great friends I’ve made here. Never in my life I thought i would ever leave my Texas, as I was born and reared in Houston, but, such is life.. you can take the gal out of Texas, but you’ll never take Texas out of the gal…lol. Bye to all of you and happy trails. 😎🌴❤️

    Emma, in the new year I was wondering if you could do the flower from each state in the States. I know your from Canada if your country has the same thing you could include your country or just do Canada. Just a thought. That little guy is growing so fast and he is complete cuteness overload.💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

    The flower is actually the yellow in the center. Both the red and greean "petals" are all leaves. The green turns red or whatever color the nurseries develop.
