In this video, Im sharing a little tutorial on these cute little Thistles, I am starting to see these blooming on my hiking trails., I love them, and they remind me of Winnie the Pooh. I Used an angle brush here, on its side, I also used a *8 round Princeton brush. I love this angle brush as it creates a very nice thin line for these thistles. I also used wet in wet here to blend the greens and the thistle.
Here is the link for the angle brush, Princeton (You will love it!) amzn.to/3Le54gY
Before painting each day, if time permits for you (I promise it's worth it ), take 15 mins and do this warm-up with me before sitting down to paint, you do this daily, and it will make a huge difference in your confidence and expression in your paintings. • Beginners #2: Daily q...
If you haven't watched my Secret Tips • Watercolor secret tips... ; • Watercolor secret tips... it has some great tips on water control. When you master your water control, you will feel more confident in your paintings and painting with this magical medium.
My paper today is an indulgent and beautiful grade Winsor Newton 140# cold-pressed. amzn.to/3HiHYVn
My second favorite watercolor paper-

And brush I used today along with my Princeton round amzn.to/3oElojy ;
I thought it might be fun to offer a worksheet and practice painting available for you in my Etsy shop!
You watched me paint it, and I priced it very attractively for you!
What fun, right? Your purchase will help me and YOU! What's included?
* painting from tutorial signed dated and tutorial episode name
* my pre-recording swatch I created with colors for reference (all handwritten)
* more pre-work, showing brushstrokes, descriptions
These are all my behind-the-scenes notes and prework.
Every painting is on different papers, depending on what I was teaching, various sizes, and meant for supporting you, although it can be framed as well as a fun piece!

Such a great video! I can’t wait to try this. I actually bought an angle brush by mistake and didn’t really know what to paint with it. Now I do. Thank you so much Debbie, for sharing your vast knowledge and talent to make videos that teach watercolor painting. I just adore all the paintings you’ve created. 💕🎨🖌️

Exciting Nadine!` I hope you will give them a try. I typically just pick up my brushes and play with them. I don't like to necessarily read "how to" use them. I use them as they work for me, then later look up how to use them. I love it, because many times I find new ways, and techniques on my own. Thank you friend, you are so sweet, and I'm so glad you enjoy my teaching and sharing style. I love playing and learning and painting daily. So happy to have you here!

Greetings Anni, I did not know that~ Yes give them a try; with the angle brush they are really quite easy. go in with the lighter value first (more water less pigment) then once that dries go in again and use a darker value (more pigment less water) with your quin magenta and violet purple. You will do great. Happy painting friend. I would love to know what other beautiful flowers you have there?

Hi Debbie, greatly enjoyed this tutorial on Thistles. They are one of my favorite flowers and have been wanting to try planting them. Now I am encouraged to do so. By the way the name of Pooh’s donkey friend is Eeyore. He is my favorite character in the Pooh stories. ❤

I’m so happy you enjoyed this. These Thistles just started popping up around my home and I just love them too. You can also use the tip Of your round brush if you don’t have the angle brush.. and Yes, Eeyore, isn’t he just the cutest little thing… I think we all have a little Eeyore in us ☺️ I’m thrilled you feel encouraged to try these, practice and warm up with the brushstrokes used here to help you prepare. I created a pre work kit but I believe sold already .. always warm up first I know you will do just great!
