That was very helpful. I've been painting for about six months and wondered why some of my flowers were just not quite right. Problems solved. You explained everything so well. Thanks.

[@JustMeYouSee]

Thank you. Florals are so hard for me..I want to learn plain old red poppies! I need to learn different angles of flowers! I made a arrangement and I hated it because they all faced forward. I just need more practice. You are so encouraging to watch and listen to! Thanks a bunch! 💐

[@ceceliah2426]

Me too

[@griffmic10]

Oh! I needed this video! I’ve been practicing and practicing and I’ve been frustrated because I couldn’t figure it out! 😫 Thank you so much, Emma! You’re awesome!!! 🤗❤️

[@jakter61]

Thank you, this is one of the best descriptions of white space I’ve seen and it’s very helpful!

[@andreakoronkiewicz6938]

Thank you so much for your tutorials! I'm a beginner (3 months of painting) and was hitting road blocks. Your videos address literally EVERYTHING I was coming up against. You explain so well - a great teacher!

[@loridibert6462]

Thank you Emma! Your explanations are always so easy to understand. I love florals.

[@afishcalledmeg]

[@nicpilou]

[@shadowguard3578]

Loose florals used to look so hard so I never attempted to paint one. This video is incredibly helpful and I’m finally going to paint some loose florals. Love this video, thank you so much!

[@dearbrave4183]

Hahaha my roses were the ones in the first category 😅 so happy to know they will now look much better. Thank you for the tutorial ❤️

[@s.j.1478]

Thank you so much. Exactly the right time for this. I love your art & how you are and explain. I'm always happy with my results& well... I'm not the person who is usually happy with my art 🙊🙈

[@axon130]

This was incredibly useful, thanks!

[@afishcalledmeg]

For a video suggestion, in case you need one😊, you mentioned the other day that you store your paintings in a bin, maybe going through in a video would be fun just to look back and see your progress. Just a thought😊😊

[@masudulalam]

Great tutorial from you.

[@love2create62]

Emma thank you so much for this video! I am fairly new to watercolor and it has not sunk in until your video, that the rose petals should touch other petals in two places. 🤦‍♀️ I think I tend to go out of my way for petals not to touch on my flowers. This will help a lot!

[@KevieG]

Good job explaining! I was doing the don't Thanks 😊

[@jessw6617]

Great tutorial, your explanation is awesome 💕

[@aestheticbear3923]

Love this video. Can you make a tutorial on a bird? Like a budgie, a penguin, or maybe a harpy eagle? Also, when can I order the Emma Lefebvre watercolor brushes?

[@michellepeele5225]

HI. Love your work and your instruction. I bought some handmade paper that is 100% cotton, 140 lbs cold press by Wanderings…any advise to help me to get the paper to allow for bleeding like my Arches.

[@AbraCassandraCrafts]

Have you ever done mini daffodils? They’re my favorite plus my birth flower and I can’t figure out how to do them in your mini loose style lol

[@pennywheeler2598]

I NEED THIS!!! PERFECT TIMING💕💕💕

[@JustMeYouSee]

I love love love your monthly bouquets!

[@seftykristihani]

thanks this is helpful

[@user-ke4rp9ik7b]

👍👍👍Очень красиво. Спасибо❤

[@melw7450]

very helpful! I know I am definitely guilty of not leaving enough white space so I end up having to be very detailed or use fineliners rather than being loose.

[@psjagtap1906]

👌

[@jacquiepeters8583]

Sorry just starting....
