I just planted some Icelandic Poppies today and what are the odds that i’d find this video! You did a fantastic job with the painting and now I can’t wait for my poppy seeds to germinate!

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Awesome! Thank you!

Thanks Anneke!

I love your comments: “...they’re really really fainted, not really noticeable, but we know they’re there”. Just love it and also the “new botanical”. I like the name and the style. Thank you, thank you.

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Thanks!

So delicate, they look so real, I love the shear petals over lapping. Very beautiful.

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Thanks!

[@paulineshelley4421]

They’re so delicate! It really shows the translucency of watercolour. Thank you.

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Lovely 👍😊

Thank you! Cheers!

Icelandic popies must be beautiful. I've only seen the red orange ones in Northern Holland. I wish you would add a video painting some of them. My 78 yr. old eyes can't distinguish how the petals look.

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Great suggestion!

[@hannamary]

TFS. I will try this weekend :)

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Hope you enjoy

[@janedownie6341]

Harriet, I love your watercolour tutorials, they are all so pretty. Can you please do a tutorial on Watercolour Sweet Peas, my favourite flower :)

[@deWintonPaperCo]

I have a tutorial pdf on sweet peas which is available in the art supplies shop on my website. Until the 28th feb my llama tutorial has a freebie code for one free tutorial pdf

[@janedownie6341]

@@deWintonPaperCo Thanks Harriet, I am really enjoying your tutorials, quite mesmerising really.

[@srbadger8844]

Mine looks utter rubbish 🤣🤣but I’m so loving the idea of painting with watercolours that I’ll keep practising!

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Haha, I’m sure they’re not as bad as you think! I find that leaving a painting I’m not happy with for a day and coming back to it then I’m much happier with it!

[@rhondahennessy76]

I know the feels 😂

[@ladyhecate9450]

Question....did you use hot pressed or cold press. Just curious when to use which grade of paper. I do not consider this painting loose. Also...should a hint of shadow color be added to differentiate

[@deWintonPaperCo]

I just use cold pressed for these tutorials

[@karenmcneely4631]

Wonderful class.. may I ask what brushes are you using and where did you get them?

[@deWintonPaperCo]

Hi Karen, all my materials are listed with links in the episode notes below the video x
