I am always stunned by the tenderness with which you paint and teach. Birds are my very favorite subjects, and I greatly appreciate your approach on this flamingo. So, so beautiful, thank you Louise.

Lovely, vibrant painting.. Thanks Louise😍🌹🌹🌹

[@NaomiCoutureArt]

Very beautiful. I find it hard to be loose with being too lose if that makes sense.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thank you Naomi. Me too. It's always a struggle to loosen up. I'm always tempted to add more detail.

Excellent tutorial Louise!

[@SarahNewburyArt]

Beautiful Louise! I’m still at the ‘tight painting stage’ where I try to paint everything but I’d love to loosen up a bit. Your paintings are inspirational! Have a great weekend 😊💕

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thanks Sarah. I'm trying to break away a little. I still love detail but I know it's important now to focus that detail on the focal point and have other softer areas.It's not easy! There's so much to think about. You have a lovely weekend too. 💕

Wow so pretty. Your painting technique is really relaxing and beautiful. Thanks for nice tutorial

[@schoonergirl2658]

Such vibrant colors! I love how different your paintings of the same subject are, how you can suggest feathers without going to such detail. It gives the picture a looser, free feeling. Very nicely done! 🙂

Merci ,votre travail est tellement magnifique,je ne m’en lasse pas ,je regarde encore et encore...belle journée à vous

[@kusum1]

I loved watching you paint and also your narration which I thought was so cool and collected- till I saw the bloopers at the end. Hooting with laughter right now. I face the same struggles as I am horriby camera shy, and my English falters at the best of times. You have a funny bone I think and you should show it.

[@lhuuna]

Your work is stunning but I love your birds in particular. You color study already seam stunning. What is the difference to the final painting beside that you changed some colors?

[@artwithalexander5359]

very pretty, i love that new orange you used. you might look at the Red Fody of madagascar for another opportunity to use it. it's a rather detailed little bird so it will be interesting to see how you soften it :)

[@evamarcum2520]

You are soooooooo adorable.

Que fabuloso 😍❤️😍❤️😍❤️

[@dianemccabe9907]

I was wondering how you do a graphite study. I love watching you paint, but the hardest part for me is getting the drawing part right... Not sure how you get started on that part....

[@bettyboop425]

Love this, especially the colour. What brush are you using to lift and soften edges? Thanks

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thanks Sharon. It's a Rosemary and Co Eradicator brush.

Louise, I joined skillshare (thank you) but don't see the flamingo tutorial. Is there a link to get the line drawing as I think I can follow your painting of the bird on youtube. Thanks

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Hi Kate, This isn't a full length tutorial yet. I have 11 classes on Skillshare that you can see on my profile here: www.skillshare.com/user/louisedemasi I plan to make a full length tutorial of this painting for Patreon next year.

[@lenapetrilli]

Will you be posting a full length version of this to your Patreon or Skillshare?

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Yes Lena - on Patreon early next year.

[@cynthiakeith6925]

Lovely... Louise I do not have that particular orange from Daniel Smith. Are you familiar with another brand of paint that has a similar colour? My mind is telling me to mix an orange hue to opera pink and maybe a touch of lemon yellow... could be fun to experiment mixing but nasty if l were to run out of the colour! I would appreciate your feedback on what mixes or brand of paint would be suitable. Congratulations to Dom setting up your shopping site to sell your amazing originals and prints! You have created beautiful pieces of

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Thanks Cynthia. It's easy enough to mix an orange. Use a bright transparent yellow and a warm red maybe. It doesn't have to be the same colour as mine. Opera Rose isn't lightfast so be aware of that if you use it.

[@cynthiakeith6925]

@@LouiseDeMasi thanks so much Louise. I was thinking too hard!

Is the eradication brush specific to that purpose? If so, is it purchased under the name “ eradicator brush”? Thank you

[@bronwynbossley4458]

Can we do this tutorial?

[@andyrite100]

Hi Louise, Is your Patreon flamingo tutorial on the Graded Wash membership only? I couldn’t find it on the Brush Marks membership I’m on.

[@LouiseDeMasi]

Hi Barb, it's not made yet. It won't be ready until early next year. I'm working my way through the paintings I did before this one. The Graded Washes and Brush Marks tiers have access to the same tutorials. If you can't see what you are looking for on the indexes I've made that's because they are still in production. 💕

Thank you! i will look forward to it. 🙂

Из видео не понятно закончили вы эту работу или нет. Всегда хотел нарисовать фламинго. Эта работа выглядит не оконченной. Лоб словно проломили. А шея выглядит словно яйцо проглотил И застряло внутри.
