[@inalf8493]

I love to watch you paint. You are so inspiring and I learn new things from you that I can put into my own practice. Thank you for giving your time to make these videos and sharing of your knowledge. ❤️

[@lydiabosley9152]

I can see that I have watched this video at least once before (since I already hit the 'like' button) but I get great enjoyment out of watching it again - you are quite the magician with your color choices and the incredibly delicate touches with the tiny liner brush, entertaining and inspiring - thanks, Louise!

[@FuriedHearts]

I notice you begin your paintings with a pencil drawing from your reference photos. I would LOVE to know how you go about doing this drawing. Like, do you trace it, use a grid, eyeball it, etc? Most artists on KZbin don’t discuss their initial sketch process and I’m intrigued by your paintings and drawings. I would love a video on this!

[@crystalheart9]

I have the worst time with leaves. They all turn out looking alike. Thanks for this tutorial.

[@Adelaidarivera123]

FABULOUS

[@notme3252]

I am working on a rose and I got to a certain point and wasn’t sure I was approaching it correctly. I was, I just wasn’t being patient. I didn’t do the masking fluid, so I’ll need to be extra careful. I’ll take a look to see if I can toss some masking fluid on over my first layer. Thanks for sharing!

[@RRNavroth]

Lovely rose, it's wonderful to watch you paint. I have learned a lot just in this short time and am eager to use the on my paintings. I appreciate all the time it takes to create these videos, sharing your knowledge. You give very helpful instructions, thank you. I love flowers of all kinds and birds. I am already a skillshare member and will be sure to check out your class.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you very much.

[@vilvile]

I like your list. I would add Acid Betty, Max, Bosco, Rosé, Utica and Sugah.

Thanks Louise for great painting technique, very elegant. Just wondering whether you could share a detailed Red rose painting like this one ( apart from the existing one), appreciated.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

My pleasure Elisabeth. Thank you very much.

[@danaparsonsliquidcosmosart2669]

Is there any chance you could show how to paint a red rose? We just lost my grandad and they have significant meaning to both me and my mom. I am just learning watercolour but your tutorials are by far the easiest to understand.

[@kathleenpotter8453]

You are an amazing teacher! Do you only paint botanical? I love your technique and would love to see you paint a landscape.

[@aprilharvey2225]

@@LouiseDeMasi welcome

[@Svetlanka3019]

Brilliant. Could you add this one to the patreon please x

[@pammielehto8937]

I'm loving watching you paint, its lovely. I want to know if you sketch the pencil drawing on the paper or do you trace using a light source to get the image on the paper you are going to paint?

[@parvanehheidari6369]

Lovely, Thank you for the video.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

My pleasure! Thank you.

[@MilestoneMarcy]

Loved your first video! Keep them coming :)

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Can you please recommend some brands of watercolour paper? Thank you😀

[@josemipanzurrino]

Maravilloso, podría decirme qué marca de papel y qué características tiene?

Loved this! Thank you!

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Mary.

[@barbarawoodall4835]

Turns out I can paint rather well, problem is I can’t draw the sketch to begin with !! If someone drew me the sketches, I’d be fine. Any tutorials on that ?

[@nithyakandalam6232]

Barbara Woodall to start with you can print your reference, draw over it with a sharpie and transfer to your watercolor paper. Hope this helps 😊

[@orcamum]

Absolutely stunning! Can you please tell me why you prefer hot -pressed paper?

[@RyanFallingUp]

Personally, I find that hot-pressed paper tends to be smoother in texture. It lends itself well to floral paintings because it allows you to maintain the delicate edges of petals and leaves in detail. I like to use cold-pressed paper for landscapey things.

[@orcamum]

Hi can i have link to where you buy your brushes please?

[@LouiseDeMasi]

I get mine in Sydney at Parker's Fine Art Supplies www.parkersartsupplies.com

[@vikkijacuinde6593]

great video , really easy to follow. silly question, to get the rose outline do we need to join your classes or is there a link here? thank you

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Vikki. I'm sorry there isn't a line drawing for this one. I haven't made it an 'official' tutorial. I made this video before I started on Patreon just as an example for KZbin that demonstrates how I teach. All my tutorials on Patreon have line drawings though.

[@vikkijacuinde6593]

@@LouiseDeMasi thank you Louise :)

[@Robin-rq6rr]

I love your art, and your videos are both soothing and inspiring. I'm wondering about the Winsor Blue you're using: Is it red or green shade? Thanks!

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you very much Robin. Oops sorry, I should have specified that. I'll fix the description. It was red shade.

[@sandrasteadman1077]

What size brushes please?

[@warwickboyce8673]

Hi Louise,i am questioning my paper i am painting on,i noticed you use Arches hot press 640 gsm on your flowers, i am not getting a good flow,hard edges,i am using Arches hot pressed300gsm .Many thanks Toni.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Hi Toni, I use Arches 300gsm too. The only difference is the weight of the paper. Hard edges might be occuring where you don't want them because your paper isn't wet enough.

[@warwickboyce8673]

@@LouiseDeMasi Thank you Louise, i find the300 paper won't hold the water,maybe i am not using the right amount,i will keep trying. Many thanks
