This is so sweet and delicate. I’m always amazed at how you use your tiny brushes. You always get the right amount of paint and it’s never too wet. Just always the perfect ratio! That’s the challenge for me!

Well I’ve learnt a lot about the true shape and anatomy of bees. Yours look so realistic, I’m definitely going to try this one and hope I can improve on my previous version of bees. A lovely painting. Thanks.

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Thanks so much Renate

[@artsymargo]

When I saw the "ad" for this video, I thought, "Oh, it's going to be one of those sickly sweet paintings," as I often see in others' tutorials here on YT. I was delightfully surprised at how beautifully and carefully the flowers and bees were rendered. Not saccharin at all. Lovely and seasonal. Thank you!

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Wow, thank you!

[@dulanjalithrikawala9241]

Thank you so much for the bees .

[@paulineshelley4421]

I loved this! You make it look easy, but I know it isn’t. The delicate hawthorn flowers are so beautiful and when you put the shading in, what a difference it made! Thank you!

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Thanks Pauline! It’s really not too hard, this controlled loose style is just really effective!

Beautiful Harriet! I love your pace. I’m not as patient as you are but I know I have to slow down. Thanks much for sharing the link to the video on serrated leaf edges.

You’re welcome 😊

[@elizabethnicholson6691]

I'm sorry to be a doubting Thomas, Harriet, but are you sure that your beautiful blossom is hawthorn (also known as May blossom)? It's a little on the early side for hawthorn to flower, even if you do live in the milder south west. I think it looks more like blossom belonging to the prunus family (see images of prunus domesticus). Also, your beautifully painted leaves are single and oval but hawthorn leaves (although roughly oval in shape) are lobed into three segments and quite profuse. Anyway - whatever it is, it's really lovely and, as always, your beautiful painting more than does it justice.

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Thanks Elizabeth we’ll check it out

[@caroleb725]

I think the blossom is blackthorn, also known as sloe. The fruits are too hard and bitter to eat but make very good sloe gin.

[@elizabethnicholson6691]

@@caroleb725 Oh, Lordy...me again. Do you not think that the bark on the stems/twigs is far too light to be blackthorn - and the stems have'nt got the sharp, spiny thorns on them either.

[@caroleb725]

@@elizabethnicholson6691 Yes, you're right. There should be spines. Perhaps Bird cherry (prunes padus) but the leaves usually develop sooner.

@@caroleb725 Bird Cherry much more likely. 👍😊

How do you rub out the pencil? Putty or eraser? I didn't know you could do it after you painted.

[@chrischurchley7003]

Stunning 🤩. How did you manage to erase your pencil marks from under the watercolour petals?

How did you remove the pencil marks under the petals from the branch? Art eraser or covering with paint? I have trouble with this so please make a video showing when you do it. Thanks, Dar
