@@StephanieLaw This is amazing!

[@claudiaweslowski]

@@StephanieLaw this poster - amazing!!! You are a miracle, how much and detailed you work!

[@autumndawns8484]

I love the detail of your work. I read in the comments that you use many reference sources to create a composite. Do you have some favorites for insects, butterflies, and birds?

[@lesliev7874]

I usually like a loose water color, but the detail you achieve is amazing.

[@StephanieLaw]

Thanks! Glad you enjoy the change of pace!

[@conniehall3873]

Stephanie, where did you get the cute little paint trays in the video when you were showing the Bloodstone color? And what kind of tin was that? This is so freaking amazing!!! I loved the short one, I am just dying watching the long one:-) I can't wait to practice!!! I am so excited I just found your channel:-) Also, do you use mostly Daniel Smith Watercolors?

[@StephanieLaw]

It's a custom made palette that I created myself, and it fits into an altoid tin.

[@IYQ2-22]

Bummer, I would love to have that cute little porcelain dish! I am sure all the rest of the painters I know would too:-)

[@annaklijn7589]

Shapeway has ceramic travel sized palettes 🎨

[@strawbrryfld1]

Love the tips !!! Where did you find you glass pallets ? Really like those. I HATE plastic pallets, the paint seems to go further when you use glass.

[@StephanieLaw]

I designed them myself: www.shapeways.com/shops/shadowscapes

[@camivetteg]

Such detail! What size brush is that?

[@janenewman6601]

Thanks for this. Are you using a reference photo?

[@StephanieLaw]

Not a specific one. I use many references to make my own composite

[@luisbito8391]

nesecitas lentes opticos para hacer esto dibujos miniaturas cuales son los que tu usas si los usas y si no los usas es wao es in poco complicado yo tratado hacerlo no me que dan tan perfecto como los tuyos

[@erins.5420]

Paper? What watercolor paper do you prefer working on?

[@StephanieLaw]

It changes all the time. This one was on fabriano artistico 300 lb hot press. but i no longer used that as they've changed it.

[@rosdibinrafaat7657]
