I think Mother Nature watches your videos. She paints her tulips the way you do it !

[@lanahopkins8729]

Wow! Some look like double tulips which I have tried to paint before. You step by step process makes them look so realistic!

Those real tulips are just wow! I've never seen tulips like those before! They remind me of exotic tropical flowers! Love seeing your painting sketchbook too! Oh how I absolutely love your tulips painting! It's gorgeous!

[@janegardner5435]

I also visited a beautiful tulip farm in Norfolk County SW Ontario and picked 20 blooms I'm happy you did this tutorial and I'm going to try to paint mine ❤ thanks for inspiring 😊

Those are gorgeous looking tulips 💐!! Parrot Tulips, Regular Garden Tulips 🌷, Lily Tulips, Emperor Tulips & Double Tulips are some of my favorites to grow in my own gardens & yard here in Mississippi. So many varieties to keep one busy with painting for early spring. Love your wonderful video & your paintings. Thank you for sharing this! 🫶🏻

[@Annette-ou2bo]

Beautiful tulips! I recently visited a tulip farm also, it was awesome.Thank you Emma.

[@mjpete27]

Hullo Emma, Tulips have always been my go to painting subject when I am at a loss for inspiration, I just pull up one of the thousands of Tulip photo's I have taken in 30+years and just paint! The variety and range of colors found in this flower is truly astonishing! I believe you did a lovely job in capturing these flowers, thank you for giving everyone a view to these wonderful subjects!

[@kathyroberts9703]

[@KMercure]

It seems you’ve got your mojo back! Your latest videos are all wonderful.

[@lvg2005]

Can you add a picture/ image in the corner up- so we can view what you are painting? It will really help! GORGEOUS Tulips! Thanks!

[@Jendarhan64]

They are SO gorgeous; you really know how to make them come alive while preserving the beauty that is watercolor! I adore these! I'm going to visit your etsy shop to see if you sell your supplies. What paint brushes do you recommend as a good basic set? Thank you! 💖

[@EmmaLefebvre]

You can actually buy my brushes at www.craftamo.com ! There’s a link in the description

[@SongBird21-nz8vx]

I absolutely love watching you paint so effortlessly with your magical brush. If only you could wave a magic wand so that I could paint as beautiful as you. I really didn't like the background music which sounds like the music they play in a funeral parlor.

[@irener1111]

I cannot do florals for anything. Even my daisy’s look like a child did them. Can you please do a video on exactly how to shape the various petals? Sounds basic, I know but I struggle so terribly. Thanks

[@miriamwettenstein4856]

I really like your style. It would be most helpful if you could tell us what technique you are using as you progress in your painting. I know you said wet on wet in the beginning. I think you are doing some wet on dry. I am a beginner and it’s very helpful to know the techniques as you move along in your painting.

[@KatieMitchell-tx6py]

So inspiring! Thank you for sharing. Do you have a brand of brushes that you prefer?

[@sandineal1255]

Hi Emma ... great stuff. Have you ever done video on "White", zinc, titanium, Chinese gouche and ink? Can you consider? Sandi

[@ellycoppens3005]

They are called peony tulips.❤

[@teridavlantis8048]

Is the Etchr cold pressed sketchbook watercolor paper smoother than Arches? I’ve been painting on Arches but I think I might prefer something smoother 💐

[@melindaavila498]

Isn't nature wonderful?!!

[@tonyaturner2762]

Would you mind posting a picture of the tulips you were using as a reference on Instagram? Where I live we don't have tulips like those

[@CamilleWolf]

Peony tulips

[@TerenceBelford]

I have 4 tulips on my table as l.text. love DAD

[@jacquelinehardouin9771]

Hello

[@karengould6510]

Get rid of the annoying music. It’s awful. You don’t need it!..

[@CaylaBacho]

As impressive as every video of this channel makes me smile!😊

[@debmarie55]

Beautiful!
