How To Paint A Watercolour Crocus

[@consueloyoung4484]

Absolutely life like!!, you are simply magical with your brushes. The tiny details that add up to a realistic flower. The spring flowers adore you ❤

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Thank you Conseulo, don't forget we have an art sale of my originals on Etsy, make sure you don't miss out! www.etsy.com/uk/shop/deWintonPaperco

[@rebeccap.simmons4244]

These are the first flowers that appear in my yard each spring and they make me so happy. As do your tutorials.

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Glad you like them!

[@charlottechagnon9896]

Harriett, you have been given such a lovely gift from God…. Thank you for sharing your talents with others.

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Thank you so much!

Oh my, these are exquisitely lovely. I suffer quite badly with anxiety & asthma since birth, my normal resting pulse around 100-110. My husband checks my breathing & oxygen levels a few times a day, & he's gobsmacked that my resting pulse is in the 60s while watching your videos! We are grateful to you for the stress relief, & imaginary medication, Harriet, so thank you! :)

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Oh my goodness Frances this is fascinating. I’m so sorry you suffer the rest of the time. I’m so glad to hear my videos offer a bit of respite

[@lynnhuddleston3199]

Breathtakingly beautiful! ❤

[@deWintonPaperCo]

[@cherylboyes4992]

Thank you for your wonderful tutorials. Being new to watercolor I really appreciate that they are produced in real time and not sped up 3-4 times. I also enjoy the variety of camera angles especially the closeups from the side. You are delightful to watch and paint along with. Have a great day or evening to and your camera person.

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Glad you like them! Yes I like to paint in real time as it's meant to be relaxing to watch!

[@debbieannmango1492]

I just love, love, love your technique. Your flowers look so real, you can almost smell their fragrance!! The most important point however is that you're a leftie ! Now most of your followers are thinking SO? But when you're a lefty (as I am) it's so hard to follow right-handed instructions and get good results. Thank you for your videos, I watch each and every one! Cheers!!

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Thanks so much 😊 yes being a leftie has a whole load of interesting differences no one would think of!

[@ladennastanley6259]

Exquisite brushwork! It would be lovely to see a bit of imperfections that we see in nature and the beauty in the movement of watercolor.😮

The Crocus is one of my favourite flowers! I spent a Spring semester studying at Oxford in 1995 (I was almost 40yrs old). And I remember the Crocuses popping their heads up out of the soil in several places 😁 Thank you so much for bringing this memory back to me. You've done a gorgeous job! Now I'm going to try. GOD bless you Dear❣

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Ah how lovely! I’m glad this brought back good memories!

[@susanweller2121]

I've painted two crocus paintings (so far) and am having so much fun. I've learned so much from you the last few months. My paintings aren't great, but they are much better than they would have been in July when I started. All those brush exercises really helped too. Thank you.

[@patriciadawn4067]

Thank you, very nicely done demonstration. Nice to be able to see you actually mixing the colors and giving the names. It would be helpful to know the size of brush for each step. You said large brush but you have several brushes there. You were able to get very fine lines with the brush which I have difficulty doing even though I have very small brushes. You have a very steady hand when drawing those very fine lines with a paint brush! Patricia

[@deWintonPaperCo]

I list the different sizes I use in the episode notes. And I try not to discrete specific sizes all the time, more a matter of general size so people don’t feel they have to buy the exact same thing as me and more be able to use what they have

[@patriciadawn4067]

@@deWintonPaperCo Thank you for your reply. I am having difficulty getting my brushes to hold much paint so was wondering the size you were using that seemed to draw a fine line but also have enough paint to do so. I noticed that the brushes were listed but because I only wanted the small one you were using I couldn't tell. I enjoy your tutorials, they are slow enough to follow and I like that we can see you actually mix the paint.
