Jenna Rainey I bet I’m not the only person who wanted to take a sip of that green crepe soda and the strawberry fizz 🥤 🍓 lol maybe I’m weird but I love the yummy colours of your water jars. ... I bet John almost too a sip. And I’ve been consciously using the tip about warm colour in one water cup and cool colours in the other. I’ve literally stored the jars with lids and haven’t needed to replace it all week because it’s not murky brown yet.

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

hahaha 😂 seriously, it does look tasty tho, doesn't it?!

[@watercolourartincapetown2919]

Jenna Rainey meant creme soda flavored 💚 and yes looks yummy 🤤

[@presidentjbr]

Need to get painting and I’ll let you know the hardest part 😂

[@MaJo0023]

Combining color between roses... and everything you describe in this video, you're like a mind reader!!

[@leojablonski2309]

This instruction is a real step up for me. Thankyou

[@delyta.]

Lol. Yep! Mine looked exactly like the "Don't" rose! Thank you for this!

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Of course, Deb!

[@truth-alwayswins]

Mine too. Lol.

[@corazontan7747]

I have watched your videos over and over and each time I learn something new. Maybe by the nth time, it finally sticks. Always mesmerized by your style. Reading your book and following it closely. I’m new to watercolor, and now I’m addicted. Love your style.

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Very much appreciate you and your support! ❤️❤️

[@malinamorin4296]

You're an awesome teacher.

[@nancys.5311]

Thank you for taking your time to share all your helpful hints and your videos with us!!

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

You’re very welcome, Nancy!

[@kellypassalaqua3427]

This helped me so much! Until your class my roses looked just like the puffy Rose you demonstrated! My roses look so good now! Thanks Jenna!

[@michelleefird9024]

Oh wow!! I just tried about 25 roses - all were just so wrong. My very first one after watching this video was great! Thank you so much!

[@nadadellore865]

Marvelous! Thanks for your explanation.

[@Dawnasy]

Thank you for the detail lesson! You are the best Jenna! I bought your book while back. How kind of you to be here on you tube guiding us along😊🙌🏼🤗

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Aw, thanks Dawn! I appreciate that!

[@sarahcinderellabeth]

Oh SNAP! Lightbulb moment! Thank you 🙌

[@Saxinful]

I feel like my biggest rose problem was losing the shape of it half way through, and then needing to do loads of layers. When I try to connect some petals I do it badly. But you hit it on the head with the highly arched C curve!

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

I hear ya! That can be tricky!! I’m glad this video was helpful for you!

[@moumsyed]

I’m getting better 🙈 but plead guilty. Thanks for the short and succinct tips!

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Oh, we've ALL been there! It's okay!! I hope this helps with your future roses!!

[@gracegrace4116]

Thanks so much for videos, just bought your watercolor florals book, yay,

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

That's great, Grace! I hope you love it! Thanks so much for watching and supporting!! Happy painting!

[@weendylry5598]

The puffy cloud is my rose! 😂

[@ritaflannery8561]

This does help. Thank you. I wasn't connecting the petals. My biggest challenge is probably timing. My petals seem to dry faster than I can complete the rose. Maybe not enough water to begin with and maybe trying to be too perfect. But it's funny - I like watercolor for its imperfections!

[@BrittOnyR]

Definitely guilty of that puffy cloud rose, lol. Now I'll have to start practicing to make sure my petals touch and less arch.

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

I've painted many-a puffy cloud rose in my day! Haha. I hope this helps you with future roses!

[@ht23325]

me too!

[@conniegant7781]

Thank you Jenna 😊

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

You’re welcome, Connie!!

You're welcome! Thanks for watching!

I have loads of different size rounds #2 all the way to #20 by Princeton but it's the Neptune 4750 series. I have one round from the Heritage 4050 series in size 6 which I have used to death and is now the brush I use for mixing and swatch charts. I also have a couple of the Elite 4850 series in round 8 & 12. Have you had experience with these other 2 Princeton watercolor brush lines. I'm just wondering if one or the other behave as the 4050. It's hard for me to tell with with my one worn out size 6. I did love that brush. I love all my Princeton brushes. Thanks for the wonderful information you provide.

[@salliewhitney5889]

[@watercolourartincapetown2919]

Yay!!! I’m very guilty of the don’t 😅😂🤣

[@suzannemerrill9942]

Cape Town Watercolour Art me too🤦🏻‍♀️😀

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

I think we’ve ALL been there!

[@suzannemerrill9942]

Jenna Rainey that’s good to know Jenna!! It was very helpful when you said that those c curves need to touch another one! 😉

[@watercolourartincapetown2919]

Suzanne Merrill Suzanne Merrill I know right. When I watched the last video I created the exact same rise as the Don’t in this video. So happy to know exactly how to fix it! It’s like Jenna read our mind Suzanne ☺️

[@maribethj3469]

Hi Jenna, thank you for your tutorial! Your style is beautiful! PS the plant lover in me says that that Pothos behind you really needs water 😁😘

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

I'm so glad you liked the tutorial, and yes, I try my hardest but unfortunately my beautiful plants to get neglected sometimes with so much going on in this house... 😰But you are right, and actually, haha, before I read this comment, I took that plant down to water it and give it some sun (so, it IS being taken care of, haha!). Thanks love!

[@maribethj3469]

@@JennaRaineyChannel sorry for the delay in responding 😁 Keep up the good work... love your tutorials!

[@LifeinGlow]

Thank you 🌹

[@neridahere9783]

Jenna Rainey I love your work . The only thing I am not able to understand is how to keep the roses wet .

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Hey Nerida! It can be tricky keeping the right amount of water to work with this medium. I do have a video all on water control that may help. But sometimes it’s about having the right amount of water and painting quickly. With practice and muscle memory, you get more comfortable with the pieces you’re painting, and the more comfortable you are the quicker you can go. When I paint, I try to do it quickly if I am trying to get the most out of wet on wet painting.

[@yelsyels]

Appreciated Thank you!

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Of course! Thanks for watching! xo

[@melonieprice9855]

Thank you so much

[@suel4269]

Mine are closer to the childish version. 🤩

[@2ndskinmineral]

This is why you can sell your art and I cannot. LOL👍👍👍😁😁😁 Niceee

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

You totally can, Pam, I believe in you!! Just takes a lot of practice and diligence. You got it!

[@ligiacerqueira1721]

Thank you

[@rettagraemmy7312]

thank you!

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Of course!

[@suhaneegupta8349]

Hi. I wanted to ask something. I just do art sometimes as a hobby, and there's this cycle. I always try to make something, I'm not satisfied with it, and instead of relaxing, i get stressed, give up, and move on. Repeat when I feel like painting some time later. So what to do now?

[@nanschifris8734]

Hi Jenna! I just started following you last week & I really enjoy your teaching style. I’m subscribed to your channel and I’m only seeing about 25 videos, yet you have over 7k subscribers. I think I might be missing something?! Do you have videos posted somewhere else? I’d love to learn more from you. 😎

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Hey Nan! I have an Instagram account @jennarainey with about 180k followers and I have two published books ("Everyday Watercolor" series -- you can find links in the video description)... I was a little late to the KZbin game, just getting it started, but I had a built in crew of people who follow along and have been learning from Insta and books for a little while now! But those are a couple other areas you can learn from me! Thanks so much for reaching out and watching!! Take care!

[@nanschifris8734]

Jenna, thanks for the info! I thought maybe I was just overlooking something on the KZbin channel. I’m following you on IG now & will look for more content there. I really appreciate you taking the time to reply. 😊

[@nicholewilson9748]

Hey! I was trying to download your floral Ebook but it is no longer available. Is it still possible to get it?

[@janetalbot6529]

Do you have a do and don’t for a peony. They are so hard!!

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Hi Jane! I have a full-length Peony tutorial that should help! kzbin.info/www/bejne/h6OcZKOhh6p7jrM

[@luckyhiker3434]

Jenna, I did everything to get the e book including confirming subscription but I don’t see that I received the e book? I am confused as to where it is!

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

I'm sorry to hear about that! There may have been an issue with the link -- should be fixed now. Make sure your email is inputted correctly and be sure to check spam or junk folders! If it is still not working, please email [e-mail] with your issue and we'll be able to help ya!

[@SalveRegina8]

[@susanbrush5222]

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

It's okay Susan! We've all been there!! I just hope this video helps take those roses in the right direction!!!
