Thank you so much Deb 🥰

[@Bugiddle]

I, too, love cherry blossoms!! I think it stems from the candy dish with cherry blossoms on it that I inherited from my parents. I have always loved that pretty dish. This painting is amazing, and I so appreciate the close-ups of your painting tutorial! Not every artist on KZbin does it, but when you can see the close-ups, it makes the tutorial so much better! I subscribed to your channel right away!

[@LoveLetterstoMilo]

Aww, Diane! thank you so much for your kind words! I am very glad you enjoyed the tutorial and the close up shots :)

[@thequiltedkitchen]

lovely! and love your nail polish! I would love to know which it is wink xx, another thing....what is the size of your Raphael brush?

[@LoveLetterstoMilo]

I think the nail polish is from the Fall Collection by Nails Inc. Raphael Brush is a 2/0 from the Petit-Gris Pur series. Hope this is helpful :D

[@thequiltedkitchen]

Love Letters to Milo thank you!!

[@amps8687]

You can save some money on palette paper by using parchment/baking paper!!!

[@LoveLetterstoMilo]

This is an awesome idea!! Thank you so much for sharing! 👩🏽‍🎨🙏🏽

[@ivyseabreeze]

Where did you get the plum red? I was looking for the pigment number to see if I have the watercolor. Do you have the pigment number?

[@LoveLetterstoMilo]

It's the No. 29 🙏🏽

[@sairaafzal93]

I need help in which brushes to use

[@LoveLetterstoMilo]

You can start with silver brush limited. You can find them on Amazon www.amazon.com/dp/B008BRYGEK/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apa_i_OLZQEbM0QXPKN

[@zaranara4388]

My result wasn't as good as I anticipated I think my paper is not right, also I can't find the paper u suggested here on Amazon U.K. what do I do now xxx plz help xxx

[@LoveLetterstoMilo]

Arches is a super widely known brand, have you tried Amazon global? If not, 100% cotton paper of 140lb should work great.

[@judiarevalo8580]

Hey! Arches is made by Canson, so maybe try with that? I'm using right now a cellulose paper I got by mistake and it does get in the way of my paintings. So you can check if yours is the same.

[@zaranara4388]

It’s super expensive and seems like sold out on UK Amazon 😔

[@judiarevalo8580]

@@zaranara4388 Arches *is* an expensive one. I've heard Bee Paper or Legion Stonehenge are really good, and Strathmore is a popular brand that also has good reviews. I live in Peru and they love Canson here, is everywhere! So I've been wanting to try more brands as well but no luck finding 😢
