Flowers in the Window on a Balcony Beginner Acrylic Painting Tutorial by Ginger Cook

[@crazymotheringchick]

Ginger, you're an inspiration. Not only a great teacher, you're gorgeous to boot and we all feel like you're our bestie as well. Get on with your "do you remember"s. We love them. The painting brings us, but so do you and Jon and your rapport. Anyway, I love this balcony. I love the floral pictures best.

[@gingercooklive]

Thanks so much, I am glad you find the "do you remember" fun. We will do more floral stuff for sure.

[@gingercooklive]

Hey thanks for the positive comment and appreciate the feedback. Check out our Academy at www.gingercooklive.gallery

[@beverlybryce7591]

Thanks Ginger and Jon, this is beautiful and I am going to paint this soon. Tell Jon he does a great job with the color balance. The colors on my screen appear exactly as they do when I mix the paint. And Ginger, you are a great teacher and come up with wonderful images for us to paint.

[@gingercooklive]

Jon will be really happy to hear that, as this is a real trick to do. This painting is fun and goes with so many others we have on our website. It would look nice a bit bigger too.

[@cintbay2355]

Ginger you are not only a great teacher but a great inspiration.

[@bernadettesquire9468]

[@loisdixon8148]

Ginger this is just beautiful and I love how you teach.

[@gingercooklive]

Thanks so much 😊

[@1951Gayle]

Hello Ginger and Jon, my time spent with you enriches my life more than words can express. I love the subject matters you choose for us and your ability to teach is awesome. I sent you a fabric ornamental ball last week and I hope you received it. All my love to you both. Thank you, Gayle Sparrow, Chapel Hill, NC

[@gingercooklive]

Thank you Gayle, we opened your ball on the end of the video... Really awesome, thank you so much.

[@katerinam4172]

I paint this for a birthday gift to my sister. I hope she likes it. I like it very much. All paintings with the flowers. Thanks for the tutorials

[@mnaus43]

Ginger, your tutorials are timeless.....I'm not good at flowers, so this is going on my list to do.....loved it! Besides, I had it planned that I was going to do some serious painting today and then can't get my printer to work to print out the image. This one I can draw in by hand, so I don't have to sit twiddling my thumbs....yippee

[@gingercooklive]

Wonderful!

[@voodoosue20]

Thank you so much for sharing your gift. I love your stories and your tutorials.

[@gingercooklive]

Thanks Susan, Jon and I really appreciate your positive comments about our lesson.

[@merciapa9733]

You are a great teacher, thanks.

[@gingercooklive]

I appreciate that!

[@clarestrange5816]

After watching several of your videos, for the first time, I painted along to this one. I didn't have the right colours, my paints were so cheap they were more like watercolours, I didn't have artist's tape so used masking tape, my technique was terrible and … I loved it! And even though my painting looks awful … it looks great! (I'm in the process of ordering better paints.) Thank you so much, Ginger, I love your tutorials and am even warming up to Jon.

[@gingercooklive]

Awesome, good paint and brushes will make all the difference

[@clarestrange5816]

Last night I ordered all of your brushes from The Brush Guys. I got all of them because shipping overseas is $25.

[@annettejacobs5475]

One of my favorite paintings I have done of a Ginger tutorial.

[@kelliecox-riede508]

I’m just now finding you, Ginger! Your daughter, Cinnamon, has mentioned you in several videos I’ve watched of hers. I’m so thrilled! I LOVE your style of painting and the awesome banter you have with your husband. Hilarious! Excited to view more of your videos!!

[@luciadi3432]

Hi Ginger.I want to express my opinion on your artistic advices you ve been giving to us.I have been painting ever since i was a kid.For lots of reasons i haven't been able to go to an artistic school.I have attended classes for 2-3 years in an artistic class of our municipality area and the advice Ginger is giving to us was something i have never heard.Lots of years some details have been a real headache to me.You are the answer to a lot of questions.A thank you could never be enough.Sorry if I have any kind of mispelling,english is not my native language.A lot of kisses from Greece.

[@gingercooklive]

Well I have to say, thank you so much. You english is wonderful, and I admire anyone who speaks and writes more than one language.

[@joycesimpson7070]

[@gingercooklive]

Thanks so much. I am loving seeing what has come back to me from the artists that have tride it.

[@zainub88mansoor]

I can't wait to start painting this. Your tutorials are always so informative. I have always loved painting but never saw myself as even a little good but... all that changed since I've started following your videos. I've become so much more confident and even have my paintings hung around my home. Thank you for sharing your gift with us. Sending Love all the way from South Africa.

[@gingercooklive]

Thanks so much. Its nice to wake up to some positive feedback and I am so pleased you painting journey has been fun and expansive.

[@MotherGosling]

HI Ginger and Jon. I live in New Zealand, and i LOVE your videos, your colourful art and the chit-chat. I am still learning to paint again after 30 years (bringing up 5 kids.) I didn't want to do portraits any more (which is what i used to do) so I am still trying out different styles to see what style suits me and what i like to paint, and i keep coming back to watch your colourful paintings. You are so inspiring!

[@gingercooklive]

Thanks Lyn, glad to have you part of our band of merry artists who watch and subscribe to this channel.

[@sonamvaghani]

[@jenniferhunter9499]

[@gingercooklive]

Jon and I hope you have fun with this.

[@sharonstraight2693]

Very beautiful when the sun hits it sure to sparkle.

[@gingercooklive]

This painting would be really nice bigger too.

[@jenniferg007]

You are amazing... Again. This is my second painting of yours that I've done after watching the tutorial, and it came out awesome!! I added some bricks from one of your other tutorials to take up space bc I did an 11 x 14, and it turned out great. It is amazing how easy you make these paintings. My confidence in painting has grown bc of you, Ginger. It's been a long time since I've done two paintings in a row and looked them both after the first attempt! Thank you so much!!!

[@maureenlippincott9528]

Ginger, Jon, and Sammy, I love you guys! And, I can't wait to try this painting. yeah. thanks so much.

[@gingercooklive]

Keep the paint mounded up and put enough paint out.

[@EmiliaChape]

Hi Ginger, loved this tutorial!

[@gingercooklive]

I use matisse Acrylics from Jerrys Artarama, but Golden acrylics and Heavy body Liquitex should work as well. It has a lot to do with my brushes which are amazing. Ruy satin silver short handle angle brushes are the best. www.thebruhguys.com use the code gingercook (all one word ) for a 5% discount. Go to teachers page and find my page.
