QUESTION OF THE DAY: What other leaves would you like to see me teach?! Let me know below and I'll do my best to cover them! Don't miss Complete Beginner's Guide to Watercolor FLOWERS: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnq0hpdjmZuqq68

[@susanvk4844]

Jenna Rainey ivy and oak and maple 🍁 please

[@NLeenaH]

Fern :)

[@SharonH11100]

Zonal geranium, please ~

[@michaelflohr75]

ditto to geranium and any toothed edge leaves. You are such a great teacher, thank you so much for your excellent and enjoyable tutorials.

[@susanvk4844]

Jenna Rainey both are good, fern and geraniums

[@anoop1971]

Even years after you made this video, this one is still helping me learn how to paint leaves. Love you for it.

[@sallylarsen1322]

I know you posted a year ago but im just watching and beginning watercolor painting now. I really enjoy your teaching method and I'm learning so much from you. Im an older lady and need an artistic outlet, so water color it is! You are such a little doll and I love your sence of humor. Thank you so much for your lessons!

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Aw thanks Sally!! Happy painting! ❤️❤️

[@jacquipf2446]

Just found your videos yesterday and have already learned so much. In many other artists’ videos you never get to see how much water the artist is using, how they lighten colors (swishing some paint off the brush was such a great and easy tip), the angles at which they hold the brush...none of that is ever explained! I never thought about how important it is to rest your arm on the paper to make sure your stem curve is steady or to angle the brush in the direction the leaf will terminate. Watching artists paint is interesting, but watching you is interesting and informative. You take the time to describe the right way to do things, and also to explain how beginners mess up. And all your tools are right there in front of us so we can not only watch what you do but hear the reasoning behind it! Thank you So Much, Jenna, for sharing your painting and teaching gifts!

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Wow, thank you so much, Jacqueline, for your thoughtful comment. I am so so glad that my videos have been helpful for you! I'll keep those videos coming and hope they continue to inspire and educate. :)

[@RadishTheFool]

You've written my thoughts exactly. Thank you vety much from me as well, Jenna! This is an amazing video, so much more detailed than many others, yet still compact and fun to watch. I'll definitely watch it again while painting along.

[@paulamoore7525]

I totally agree. It was always very difficult to know when to add water, and I love that you show your whole work space so we see how you use all your supplies.

[@melissaraj1099]

Oh my goodness, I am so glad that I found your channel today, it just popped up! I have fallen in love with watercolor over the past couple of years and have only worked up the courage to let myself paint, over the past year. I wanted to push myself to do it in order to help work through my own fear of failure and tendencies of perfectionism. I want freedom but also needed a creative outlet that brings life to my soul. I have gravitated towards natural elements exactly what you are teaching on so far. Your tutorials are exactly what I needed to build skill and understanding of what I am trying to achieve. Which is great, because I have no idea what I am doing. You are equipping me with confidence and knowledge so that I can at least produce something which encourages me to continue learning. (I love creating and sending cards!) I am so grateful for what you are doing, thank you so much!!

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Aw Melissa, thank you for sharing! I’m so happy my tutorials are teaching you just were you’re at and meeting your needs! ❤️

[@beebee8018]

Jenna: You make your brushstrokes look like ballerina’s 😊💃 Super cool

[@paulamoore7525]

I'm appreciating how you teach fundamentals.I feel like I can be a better painter if I understand the fundamentals and then I can develop my own style once I have mastered the basics.

[@susanthomas8274]

I like your teaching style. Thank you for going slowly. I did it! I made some realistic looking stems, leaves, and rosemary!

[@corazontan7747]

It takes a lot of practice but this is the basis of a lot of the things we paint. I watch this tutorial over and over and it still amazes me each time.

[@carolynstraight7789]

Thank you for the video. I appreciate your details when explaining and showing how to paint leaves. It took me a while of watching over and over and painting an entire page of leaves, but I finally figured it out!

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Nice work, Carolyn!

[@erinmiller9160]

So happy to have found you! I’ve always enjoyed painting but 4 kids slowed my pace, almost an empty nester, watercolor is new and you make it fun and forgivable

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Aw SO glad you found my channel, Erin! I hope my videos help you and inspire you as you dive into watercolor more! ❤️

[@Robreehl1]

Here’s a suggestion: drawing flowers from different perspectives. You have a great, easy style of teaching. Love your channel. Thank you!

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Thanks a great suggestion, thanks Rosemary! If you check out my flower alphabet drawing series (I only have "A" and "B"), I do share a couple different perspectives of an Aster flower and a Buttercup flower. I'll definitely keep your suggestion in mind! Take care!

[@Rockymtnbloom]

Yes, I would love to see leaves from different angles and with highlights from light sources. I really like your videos!

[@jillbooker7970]

I would also love more videos on drawing and painting flowers and leaves from different perspectives....I love the way you explain/ demo and teach Jenna!

Thanks again Jenna your the bomb

[@nanschifris8734]

Hi Jenna! I’ve watched this series several times now and it’s been very helpful. Thank you so much for posting great content with detailed descriptions and lots of encouragement. My favorite thing about your method of painting is that you work slowly. I’ve enjoyed watching hundreds of tutorials online and have learned oodles from watching how others paint, but I often find that my process of creating is more slow & methodical. That can be a bit of a clash with the natural flow of watercolor painting, but watching you has helped me see ways I can take my time while still being loose and flowy. This has had a dramatic impact (positive, of course!) on my painting in the short week since I started following you. I look forward to learning more from you! Thanks for sharing your passion. ❣️

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Wow thanks so much for sharing!! I am SO happy to hear how helpful these tutorials have been for you and your painting process!!

This was incredible! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I bought your book Everyday Watercolor Flowers yesterday at Barns and Noble, I have already been studying it.

Love you're tutorials, thank you!

Thanks for the encouragement, Heidi! Glad you love the tutorials!!

[@barbaralassiter259]

Thank you! As I watched I could see why I'm never satisfied with leaves that I'm painting. You showed how they should be painted and I could see the error of my ways! lol! I will practice!

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

You're welcome, I'm glad it was helpful!!

[@dotydiva]

I dont mind a messy palette. I like seeing how you do the leaves. I will be looking at more tonight.. Waiting for new years to come..

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

Good! I love my messy palette! :)

Thanks Monica!! xoxo

Thank you thank you thank you 🙏 I had that “aha!” moment realizing exactly why I always end up with one or two wonky leaves in my paintings that ruin the whole composition for me. I’ve had your book on my wishlist for a while now and got so excited when I stumbled across your channel today. I love your work and can’t wait to learn more from you 💖

[@JennaRaineyChannel]

You are SO welcome Ceara! Thanks for sharing all of that, I LOVE hearing about those "aha" moments too! Gotta love those break throughs! Thanks for your support and following along, more tutorials will be coming SOON! Happy painting! xoxo Oh! Also, I don't know if you saw, but my latest video on analogous colors includes a free watercolor e-book, so check that out if you haven't already! kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHiTaYaFZrCeq7M
