Hydrangea - Watercolor Tutorial with Sarah Cray

[@addisonb5412]

I really appreciated that there was more than one person painting because it allowed me to see the painting through a different perspective. And it also made the conversations more interesting!

[@eleanormacdonald7031]

Love your tip about painting several without picking up paint. Thank you.

[@apollinemalik5383]

The loveliest painted hydrangeas I’ve seen💗

[@melissaclark9284]

I am so happy i found this group. It is keeping me sane during this shutdown. I havent painted for many years and this has really helped me get back into it. Thank you. Thank you.

[@conniemesce4093]

Love blue hydrangeas!

[@madisong5054]

This is the perfect way to spend my quarantine. Even though I'm mostly a digital artist (I keep trying to control z to undo) but I love watercolor. And this is the perfect idea for mothers day. My mom absolutely loves Hydrangeas so I cant wait to see what she thinks. Edit: I gave it to her and she loved it! Cant wait to paint more!

[@Geri412]

Just finished the bus which I loved and now to tackle those Hydrangea's flowers which are not so easy for me. I am almost 80 but know this is really an old flower my grandmother had lots of them I remember as a child.

[@pennykennedy4915]

This is my first tutorial with you! I love that you also have a novice artist working alongside you, so that I don’t feel bad that mine isn’t as lovely as yours. But, we all must start somewhere. Thank you for the all the tips. I need to overcome my fear to begin as I have no skill set or art education. “Happy Accident” -I love it!

[@rosetheriault1148]

You are amazing ,i was going to give up water painting ,i am 70 years old and my goal was always to paint watching you encourages me

[@LetsMakeArt]

Wonderful! You can totally do this!

[@sallyglenn7701]

I never get bored watching your videos! Thanks for teaching me a skill I will have all of my life! LOVE WATERCOLOR!

[@LapostropheAura]

Aww! We had hydrangeas at our wedding last year. They are my favorite because they just give me such a magical feeling! Doubt I can paint them as magically as you 2, but now I have to give it a try!!!

[@roxannesaldana216]

Happy Birthday to you Sarah Cray. May you have a wonderful Day!!!

[@saritaschwedes8393]

I’m rubber stamper but am now painting because of sarah cray! I have a hydragea stamp. I let my grandgirls decide what colors it should be. We had orange flowers with purple leaves! Red leaves and green flowers! Beautiful!! I’m thinking I will have orange flowers when I paint this!! 🙂

[@nildavalencia5524]

Hi friends, I was searching for H. Flower! And I found you after the P. Flower so beautiful! I loved the colors values steps! Anyway, I am going to paint the Hydrangea one today! Thank you for the wonderful motivation you inspire me to paint much better and flow with it!! Love your mommy’s love you are a light of kindness to the universe!!

[@pennykennedy4915]

I cannot wait to try this! I bought kits for both daughters and for me! Sarah, you make it look so easy! ☺️

[@LetsMakeArt]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@mandypittman1154]

Fun. This is on of my favorite flowers but they don't really grow here in Southern Colorado. Thanks LMA folks!

[@LetsMakeArt]

Since you can't grow them in your neck of the woods you can always come paint them with us.❤️

[@lschimes6844]

So glad this tutorial was finally uploaded to KZbin!

[@Enj0y_Life]

Sarah, you may be my most favorite person on KZbin.

When I was stationed in Okinawa I was amazed to see huge poinsettia plants, as tall as I am, growing wild.

[@99Violets]

Ih my gosh! My Alexa heard you! It's in my husband's office about 20 yards away! It started playing the song! Holy cow!

[@kristinwight8465]

I love the breakdown of the colors in the beginning. Sometimes I am not sure what colors I can use when using my own paints that I have already.... Thank you!

[@mimaw7700]

Loved this lesson on Hydrangeas!! You guys are so much fun to watch🤗

[@digitoes]

Great tute! You activated my Alexa to play Taylor Swift’s song! Haha! I love it! Thanx for the happiness today!

[@hollycatmeow]

OH MY GOD! YOU ARE ALSO HAVE A LATERAL BRUSH GRIP! I was afraid It would limit me as a (re)emerging artist, but now I feel so much better knowing that you also have a lateral grip. I can't tell you how validating this is because my teachers tried so hard to correct my grip.

[@LetsMakeArt]

You can do it!

[@eunicenield3592]

I’ve been looking forward to this tutorial.

[@CLOUDSINTHEKITCHEN]

I am doing mine in dark red/burgundy/rusty orange. I saw one when I walked to my flat when i was last in London

[@iveheardthenews]

My family is from the azores! They are 9 beautiful islands. They are from Sao Jorge. I am learning to paint hydrangeas for that reason. ❤️

[@LetsMakeArt]

Oh wow! What a small world!

[@calebstutzman3382]

your awesome sarah you taut me how to concer my fears

[@francoisederocher]

Hydrangeas have very thick woody stems to support those heavy floppy flowers. I have noticed that a lot of painters favor the flowers, then the leaves, but the stem is often completely "off" and since I am a passionate gardener, it drives me nuts!

[@LetsMakeArt]

Noted!

[@jenniferwaters7830]

Lol Alexa started playing! 😆

[@LetsMakeArt]

We have super powers!

[@andreaharutunian3838]

Too funny my Alexa went on to play that song lol! Love the video- u inspired me to paint hydrangeas 😁

[@japnoorkaur9965]

Great tutorial thanks You made it so much easier and fun☺️☺️

[@patytrico]

Hermoso! Thank you for the inspiration & tutorial ;)

[@rowol2000]

Thank you 🙏 ❤️

[@LetsMakeArt]

You are so welcome

[@halfpiint]

Wonder what alternative colors if we don’t have the exact colors you have but have Holbein and WINSOR Newton Colman watercolor paints?

[@vikkibyington3066]

❤❤

[@mirandaryan6491]

I love your tutorials, so much. It would really help me if you could have a sketch available in marker, though, so I can see it.

[@naomiereid2456]

bloom balls.

[@marykriglein9839]

And what am I watching your video on? My kindle! And the Alexa kicked in and started playing music! OMG. So funny!

[@theartofflorals]

i would love to see what the girl beside you painted

[@hahern242]

Watching this late at night when the kids are asleep.... Had to frantically tell our Alexa not to play the music! Lol

[@allyaceart5613]

Lol. Thanks for the Tay Tay 😛

[@cinderellaII]

Our Alexa responded to your command and we were surprised at first!

[@LetsMakeArt]

Hahah she's always listening!

[@bunner622]

When you said that, my Alexa started playing that song!

[@katearnold3490]

Haha same here

[@kalenadc]

Oh no! Our Alexa heard you 😂

[@susanpinson7860]

Mine did too!

[@stephaniedreams5529]

Lol Alexa started jamming out at my house, per your request. 🤣

[@jeanetteroe1409]

Are you painting on wet paper.

[@LetsMakeArt]

No, Sarah does not pre-wet her paper when painting.

[@dianeandrews1081]

My Alexa is playing Taylor Swift

[@beachkoz]

No outline??? Awe geez. AND I can't see the pencil drawing.

[@ewigginton1]

I need to find a way to filter out about 50 ‘likes’ from the video.

[@marthacarpenter6577]

Too much chatter

[@ennelle2024]

lol. Beyonce would not bring joy to your viewers. lol

[@katie4623]

This tutorial would be perfect if it were 10 minutes long.
