"Its a leaf if you say its a leaf" One of the best advice i've gotten about painting

[@ShaydaCampbell]

Yeah!!

[@stellaolejar9007]

Shayda, what a beautiful and detailed tutorial on painting loose florals. I'm a beginner so I just can't wait to attempt this tomorrow. Thank you for sharing your creativity. God bless you

[@Wonnni5]

Your so right hifsa Ahmed!

[@amandasunshine2]

But like, it's up there with "happy accidents"

[@sudipadas1566]

Your tutorials are theraputic.. I suffer from certain chronic anxiety and depressive and other disorders, and find it extremely hard to function in a normal pace,, and your tutorials, the soft colours, n everything about these videos kinda work like therapy for me.. This channel helps me a lot in dealing with my tough episodes❤

[@anubhapaliwal3547]

I love our color palette of pinks and peaches and the mossy green. In love with this artwork

[@ShaydaCampbell]

Thank you for your sweet comment! Always love a mossy green!

[@anubhapaliwal3547]

@@ShaydaCampbell yeah 😊 truly

[@sallykirkstephens8415]

Yep can only echo that . I just need to keep using more brighter paint because my finished work has love in it but looks so washed out when dry

[@nancybroza7478]

Thank you for the tip about adding red to the bright green that really made a difference!

[@pamketron]

I love this one Shayda! Really pretty flowers and leaves. Everything just flows so well together. Great job!

[@insightsbyzahra6517]

Never tired of florals 😍😍 Beautiful 💕 Thank you for inspiring me to make art tutorials too 😁😇

[@zebaanwar4752]

I painted along with you, a bit different but same techniques and I'm so happy with how it came out ❤

[@mesinjana]

I was never good at watercolors even though I learnt art for years and did v well at pencil sketch and pastels. When I started watercolor painting after many years I stumbled upon your video. It helped me a lot. I didn't know painting roses was so easy until I saw your video about 3 ways to paint rose. I come here a lot but I'm commenting for the first time to thank you for the wonderful videos. and yes, painting loose florals is therapeutic

[@thaaraa7395]

Please do more of this type of videos. Please please!!!!!!You are so good at teaching these.🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 You are the reason why fell in love with loose florals. ❤😘

[@luellahobson2865]

I absolutely love painting flowers! I’ve been practicing. I just want to do an arrangement. I’m consistently watching this video to become familiar. I love color, so I will need to tone the colors down a bit. But the arrangement you just painted is gorgeous. I will be trying it,

[@macCALICOmac]

I literally opened KZbin hoping to see a video by you on watercolor flowers (I know, I can’t get enough, I rewatch them all the time!) and what an awesome surprise to see this video first on my feed. It’s a good day! 🌸

[@VijaytaSharma]

this was super gorgeous. In love with the color palette

[@merylanna]

Thank you so much, i have problém with self harming and because back to school I've been really stressed and wanted to do something to myself, but then I randomly found this and did it. This helped me calm down and stoped my thoughts for a while. You saved me from bleeding more blood, thanks. I will use this as much as I can and maybe it helps me stop or save my life one day☺️. Sorry if is my grammar wrong I'm using translator..

I love all your tutorials, I'm just now starting out doing watercolor. I've been sketching and drawing in pen for a while and I have gotten so good at it by watching you. I have people tell me I should be a tattoo artist bevause of how detailed my drawings are getting. Just wanted to let you know that you're a very good teacher 😊

[@ShaydaCampbell]

Wonderful! Thank you so much
