[@JulietteRousselet-ow3tx]

Wonderful !

[@kathyh4110]

This matches a favorite tablecloth I own. I want to paint for my kitchen.

[@wimjanssen2181]

My 22th. Because it rained all morning ( and afternoon too) I couldn't work in my vegatable garden. Lucky me : I could spend the whole morning watching and painting along. It was again a very nice practice and I can feel a little more comfortable being not so perfect. I still have a long way to go but watching you and sometimes painting along bit by bit will change my attitude. Thanks again and I am looking forward to choose and watch another video. I liked your relaxed voice , it even distracted me for a while from my titinus😊wim

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Sorry to hear you have tinnitus, that’s a very bad thing, I have family who suffer with it greatly, so sorry about yours. Thanks for supporting our channel Wim, you’re great!

[@olgat.155]

This turned out lovely 🍋🍋🍋

[@wimjanssen2181]

My 21th. It is raining the whole day so it is very nice to get some sunshine watching this video. I planned to watch once the whole video and then watch it again painting along. I got interrupted and let the video rol on. So I have to watch again to get a good overview so that I am a bit prepared when actual painting. I miss some yellows but the wish to paint is bigger then waiting for the transparent yellow. And I will approach it as a practice. Thanks for bringing sunshine. Have a nice day Wim

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Thanks so much for all you are doing to help the channel and the world Wim!

[@jennifermcintyre6231]

simple and beautiful....can't wait for the olives that are coming.....thanks Diane

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Ha ha! Using Olive Green to paint Lemons yellow is too much for my brain! So I HAVE to do olives now, such a good idea!

[@cathygraetz7229]

Such a lovely sunny painting, Diane! I enjoyed the videos that preceded this one, too, as you helped us explore the yellows and practise painting individual lemons, in preparation.

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

My pleasure 😊

Ohhh!! Me encanta!!! Mil gracias por enseñarnos!! Estoy empezando a pintar, nunca lo había hecho y me gustan las acuarelas. Tengo 65 años y estoy recién jubilada!!! Un abrazo desde España. Isabel.

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

[@nicpilou]

thank you so much for your generous sketches, it came out really satisfying !!!

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

My pleasure 😊 so glad about that!~

[@zannaevans997]

This really clarified for me the art of laying colours which has been a bit hit and miss for me. Thank you for the lesson.

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Glad it was helpful! Lots more coming and quite a lot in the channel already which will help with the layering process. Try the most recent poppy. Happy Painting!

[@moonstonerising6856]

marvellous if only I could pick one, thankyou for another great video

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Ha ha, yes, I miss the lemon tree outside the back door!

[@carolevincelette8724]

I am preparing for this challenging beauty

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Have fun and enjoy!

[@rabenschwartz]

The colours, the motif... The whole picture, not only a feast for the eyes, but a feast for the senses. I feel the lemons under my fingers and I taste the flavour, while my whole face contorts because the lemon is so sour 😍😍😆😆😆

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Thanks so much Sylvia, you say such amazing things - so glad you are enjoying my videos. Lizzie sends her love!

[@BarbaraChichester]

[@Hoid.]

Thank you so much! Just did it and it's already hung on my wall.

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Wonderful, thanks for sharing!

[@trinawilliams1395]

I can taste the lemonade! A fun, lively and thoroughly enjoyable tutorial. Beautifully loose. Thank you for your generosity of time and skills. You are a peach!!

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Thanks Trina! So glad you called me a Peach and not a Lemon!!

[@carolyndaughton3373]

Diane, this is just so lovely! My mouth is watering and my lips are puckering :)

[@rabenschwartz]

Me too... 😆😆😆

[@wimjanssen2181]

My 229th. In the list it shows that I didn't watch this vi😅deo. But I did. I even watched a second time to paint along.

[@karenknecht5217]

Hi! Diane😊 I truly love your channel. I have downloaded every video I have found of yours- so informative!! You paint beautifully. My other favorite artist that I download is Paul Clark. I’ve watched all the other “popular” artists but I find their art pretty boring and I get tired… very quickly… listening to them continuously refer to becoming a patreon and how little $$ they have. You DO NOT do that! You tell us what’s pricey and you are grateful to your viewers.

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Hi Karen, thanks so much for your helpful comments, I really appreciate your input. Paul Clark comes from the exact same part of England as me, in fact I went to university in his home town. I don't know him personally though. His art is very different to mine, and he seems to concentrate on complex landscapes which lots of people really love. Luckily for me I don't need to do KZbin or Patreon for the money, and I'm making my videos literally to try to help people get over the pandemic and to have a beautiful watecolor experience. Thank you again for your message, and happy painting!

[@annemiekebelgraver7400]

Wondeful lemons Diane! I’ve already made the sketch and now try to make the painting.

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Wow, have fun, it's a great subject to paint!

[@annemiekebelgraver7400]

@@DianeAntoneStudio I sure was having lots of fun painting the lemons. Thanks for your great tutorial. Many compliments on my FB! I’m also on Instagram Abeltje 5717

[@joycesnodgrass7068]

I'm looking forward to painting lemons! Thank you for the generous sketches💛

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Thanks, you’re very welcome!!

[@malgozata1875]

Hello Diane, I have just been scrolling down your videos and discovered this beautiful painting. I saved it to my playlist to come back later and follow your tutorial for myself. I am adding lemons to my list of favorite painting subjects. I find yellow lemons to be very warm and cheerful. I plan on adding my version of this painting to my wall gallery. Do you decorate your home with your art? I hope so. So, thank you very much for this tutorial.

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Thank you so much for your kind words, really appreciate that, and yes, yellow is wonderful and under appreciated by many! They are a lovely subject, those lemons!

[@tinagagnon]

I enjoyed doing this one with you…I don’t have all the yellows but it still came out ,in my opinion good 😊 Thank you !

[@juliehopkins5784]

Thank you for replying, perhaps I was too quick 😀.

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

No worries!

[@wimjanssen2181]

Now I watched a third time. Stays as nice as the first time😅. Repetition is always a good thing. 😊wim

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Oh yes, repetition is good, is good, is good….

[@BarbaraChichester]

Diane, I suggested to Mr. Maeyama that he should use paypal for purchases and he took the suggestion, they now have a paypal account for the Drawell brushes!

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

Brilliant!

[@viviwilhelmsson307]

I just love your painting! I'm new to this and wonder how do you decide where the light comes from and does it vary between different paintings?

[@DianeAntoneStudio]

You decide! Just pick on side or the other of the subject and make it consistent for all your lights and shadows x

[@stollenmaker]

Hi there - Do you have a sketch of this dandy tutorial to download? Thank you in advance. I’ll go and look through the perks section again and see if I missed it.
