    Small detailed butterflies are one of my weaknesses in painting. I got one of the sets of brushes you recommended a couple videos ago. I'm hoping they will help me doing this well. You a very good teacher and I'm sure one day I'll improve with your help so ty again for all you do for your subscribers.

    Hi Jean! So you use a clean brush and soften the edges that you don’t want! I always demonstrate now we soften the edge, same technique! Hope that’s helpful

    Wow! Your tutorials are amazing! 🙂 You put soul into what you're doing, like trying to teach someone you really care about. And the way you apply color is so delicate, there is elegance in the way you do it. Art is not just technique, art is soul. The more soul you put into technique, the more it becomes art.

    Hello, the brush I used here is called the happy dot! It’s a very reliable orientalist brush! It’s very smooth and hold its shape! Mine I had for over 20 years! With orientalist brush it always came with glue so they needed to be soaked in lukewarm water for few hours and rinse completely! They are no different than any western brush and may shed a hair or two in beginning which doesn’t bother me! If you want other videos here I talked about my brushes a lot! Here’s a link you can check out at Amazon! You can also get them at oriental art supplies, the link is in my blog! amzn.to/44nGAuP

    Very cute painting. Often times I will come across tutorials on KZread and let them play in the background while I'm working on my own paintings. It's almost like having a friend over to get creative with me. I've been painting off and on for about 50 years and I'm STILL learning new things. You have a very calming demeanor and voice so I'm subscribing. Hummingbirds btw are one of my favorites to paint!
