I've watched this for so many times before but did not have the confidence to paint because it looked so hard to do. But today I finally gave in, and I'm so happy with the results! I will never get tired of watching your tutorials, Shayda! You are a gem for beginners like us! 🌸

[@gammahinAz]

So pretty. You paint and explain so well that it makes me feel like “I can do that...kind of...not as good, but close”. Thanks for sharing and I’ll be trying this out.

[@julietreimers8372]

It's snowstorm today feb 17, 2022 in Wichita Kansas so yes, I was able to watch this incredible hydrangea painting. Thanks for sharing.

[@ShaydaCampbell]

My pleasure 😊 We are having a surprisingly mild day for February but the snow will be back next week 😂

[@wulfseig1864]

Just found this video. Going to paint this and send to my 95 year old grandmother. Hydrangeas are her favorite flowers. TFS.

[@debchambers8563]

I looked through all the comments and nobody who gave it a thumbs down had the nerve to leave a comment. Maybe they are just too lazy. As for me, I love your videos and have also been binge watching them ever since I discovered your channel. Keep up the good work! I’m trying to learn as much as I can so I can get up the nerve to use all the brushes and paints and paper I’ve accumulated over time. Eeek!

[@Usdukes]

Hydrangea is one of my very favorite flowers and we have many in our yard. The way you painted these are so beautiful!

[@TimeofTesoro]

fall in love with your hydrangea

[@upstartaart6091]

You are absolutely great

[@user-fb2du3we2g]

Absolutely lovely! I think you answered some questions I had about technique. Fabulous leaves also!🌸🌸🌸

[@ndurrett808]

aww Shayda. you are soo sweet and i just love how talented and precious you are. You are sensitive to peoples budgets. and it is showing us that you dont always need professional artist quality products, to create beautiful works of art.

[@debbywilson327]

My sketch book is getting better since watching your tutorial. I want to learn this beautiful medium so badly. Thank you so much!

[@stacyhannon4081]

Absolutely love it! Thank you for explaining the process so well! Already looking forward to the next video!

[@madcow4madcow4]

Thank you I’ve used this tutorial and I will keep practicing

[@alicecalsada3838]

This is going to be so much fun . Enjoying each tutorial and my "perfectly imperfect " paintings. Thank you for sharing your creativity

[@elleneverett2200]

Can’t wait to try this😍😍😍 This is absolutely gorgeous! Your voice is so happy sounding and I love the angles of your shots 😊

[@mirimari4536]

"This is a good one." I can only agree. Thanks so much for your content here. 💛

[@Linda-qq5mg]

I certainly will give this a try! Your hydrangeas are truly beautiful! Thank you so very much.

[@paintingtheskykingdom9005]

thank you for going over how you do the leaves so well, this helps a lot as I never seemed to be able to get mine to look realistic. Your mixture of controlling the water and then letting it do its own thing is the difference (as well as explaining when to let go and when to paint details)

[@paulinedavis3660]

Very pretty thankyou Shayda x

[@sewagg]

Soooo beautiful & one of my fav flowers. My grandma grew them so they remind me of her. ❤️ And your tutorial is so simple and approachable that I’m going to try my beginner’s hand at painting my own, even though I haven’t painted anything since first grade! Thank you for this. 🌸🌺🌷🙂

[@Athingofbeauty.EasyArt]

Thank you for painting these beautiful flowers!

[@lindacarreira8106]

Love this series!

[@dianeperkins364]

Nice explanation as you paint. These are are lovely representatives of my favorite flower. Thanks.

[@LB-vl3qn]

My goodness, you're an excellent teacher! I've never painted with watercolors before in my life and I really believe I could do this. It won't be perfect, but at least it won't be awful. I've always wanted to learn how to paint with watercolors so I'm subscribing. Thank you for making sense of it all. ~ Lisa

[@lindascott3885]

Really Nice! I love the tips for doing the leaves & veining!

[@jamieho2421]

Breathtakingly beautiful!

[@kristinepereznitnit]

Thank you Shayda, I learn more from your tutorial. ❤️

[@pamketron]

This is just stunningly beautiful. So soft and whimsical. Perfectly Shayda for sure. One of my favorite paintings. The details on the leaves look so pretty. Going to give this one a try. Love it. Thanks!🤗🎨

[@ShaydaCampbell]

Thanks, Pam! This one took me a few tries but in the end I was so pleased with it 😊❤️

[@pamketron]

Shayda Campbell You should frame this one and hang it on the wall. It’s so soft and gorgeous.

[@MuniraHoosain]

We call these Christmas flowers in south africa because they bloom in December! They're my favourites 😍😍

[@ilhamalamoudi]

Wow!! How lovely!! 😍😍 i love your style and these are the most beautiful watercolor hydrangeas I’ve ever seen.. and you’re right.. I think that the beauty of watercolor, is all about being imperfect.. thank you very much 🌸🌸🌸😊😍

[@sandrapudoff]

Love this tutorial!!!!

[@OnlyInThisLight]

I am so glad I found your videos! You explain what you are doing with the brush in each step, how much paint and water you are using on the strokes, and let us know how dry/wet the surface is for layering - basically all the stuff a watercolorist needs to know that you can't really infer just by watching a speed-paint or being shown how to do ind. washes. I've been working on floral pen and ink and watercolor peices, but I really struggle with (demensionality? perspectives) in my flowers and leaves. I tend to always do top-down views of flowers and struggle to do side profile, 3/4 view, or do large bunches or bushes with flowers and buds popping out at all angles.

[@lorilazise1521]

Absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing ❤

[@mooihartje]

I just stumbled upon your channel last night Shayda, and been binge watching your floral watercolour tutorial since! (also at work, don't tell my boss ;)) I can't wait to try this!

[@sandisloan7003]

Good morning Shayda, I love these hydrangeas and my daughter loves them s well...I made her birthday card with your hydrangeas and mailed it to her...Today is her birthday and I know she will love the card...Thank you again a million times over for all you do for all of us...hugs and Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, Sandi

[@lydiasabina]

Simple n beautiful as always

[@Athingofbeauty.EasyArt]

These are so pretty! It took me, like, 2 tries just to get it right, and most other tutorials take about 4 tries! You teach watercolor so well! It makes so much sense and it is all so friendly! Thank you! Can you paint a watercolor stargazer lily next?

[@ShaydaCampbell]

Thanks so much 😊 I'll add it to my list :)

[@beulaho]

So beautiful and delicate looking! Thanks for this tutorial 🤗

[@ZainBeautifulSoul]

So pretty, love hydrangeas! Shayda, this one is perfectly perfect (not imperfect)! 🤪💜

[@maurachambers3797]

[@justalauren9750]

😍😍 I love your channel! I feel like I could do this! (Perfectly imperfectly) lol

[@Ane-kh3yp]

This is so pretty Shayda and I am going to tackle it this afternoon as want to make a 'thank you card' for a friend and this is just so lovely. As usual I enjoyed your tutorial and your voice always sounds happy and makes me want to be creative with my brush. I need to check I have not missed your previous tutorials Shayda. Thank you as always. :)

[@ShaydaCampbell]

Sounds like I lovely afternoon! I'm sure your friend will love the card. 😊 If you go to my channel homepage, there's a whole playlist of different watercolor floral videos 🎨❤️

[@aprilsart]

I used your method to paint today ，and it went so well ！I cannot believe it ！

[@ShaydaCampbell]

Yay! That's awesome!

[@toniesolomon]

[@ShaydaCampbell]

[@geni2906]

Beautifulx

[@aaron32608]

I have been wanting to buy wall art with hydrangeas I can’t really find one that I love so I will attempt to paint these in large sheets and frame it hopefully mine looks good enough to frame😜 thank you for the detailed tutorial!

[@ShaydaCampbell]

I love this! They will definitely be beautiful framed, and so special that you created them yourself

[@raceylacey1]

So so beautiful. Hope I become as good as you 🙏 x

[@asriyaafrin1305]

Speechless mam

[@joankiely3614]

Your hydrangeas are just gorgeous. I always get my colours far too dark 😔. Cheers 😊💕❤️🥰😍😘

[@stephaniesayschannel]

This is so pretty... I don't think I can do this though :( I feel like I'm going to lose track of petals for each blossom and not be able to put petals behind/in front of another blossom! Oh well, I suppose I could just watch you lol

[@cellsclaralourenco8656]

💜💙Hortências in 🇧🇷

[@CSEfreak]

I tried this, I love the tutorial, but I think I lack the skills lol, thanks!

[@janetkuo]

Can I just say I love your paintings as well as your voice! So soothing to watch your videos. 🥰

[@roses9339]

Hi Shayda, I want to paint the hydrangeas on wood. Do you recommend the style for this please and paint. I'm 69 and haven't painted in years so very rusty on technique. I have watched other tutorials and they certainly don't even compare with your guidance. Well done. Much appreciated Rosemary (Perth Western Australia)

[@sibyv]

So beautiful... If i try i m pretty sure mine will look like a blob of paint

[@sithilpandithage2758]

What did you mix to make the colours

[@Tonyukuk1453]

Which do you use brand of watercolor paper ? And do you recommend a watercolor paper brand for beginners? please answer my questionn

[@saujanyaroy4942]

The only problem I have is that, I just lean on the dusky earthy effect of watercolour which make others think that my illustrations are muddy.. gotta work on that

[@dianeandbrad529]

Could you do a tutorial in real time? Without sped up and a voiceover? I'd like to really look at what you're doing to try it out.. but it's going so fast.. I loooove the look of this!! It's beautiful and the colors are gorgeous!

[@ShaydaCampbell]

Click the three vertical dots in the upper right corner of the video, and then click playback speed on the menu that comes up, and try watching it at 0.5 x or 0.25 x speed 😊
