I think I prefer the one in the bottom right hand corner! I enjoyed painting them all!

[@antiochfoxlake7]

They’re all unique and look like fun. You always inspire me with your various techniques. Thank you!!

[@PaulaScardamalia]

Believe it or not, I love the dark, more abstract Brusho piece. There's something mysterious and magical about it. I also like the ink and watercolor.

[@kensarawillard8567]

I think the pen and wash was my favorite, but they're all so lovely and unique! I love how you just went with the flow of each, and just played around with all the techniques. Great tutorial, thank you! 😊

[@marlenedelvecchio8074]

Love the scraping with the watercolor pencil! Wonderful Idea!

[@pattycyr8662]

I love the various "tools" you use and the textures you create. Thanks for the suggestions!

[@soniatrainor7310]

They all look fabulous but my personal favorite is the pen and wash, 2nd place the Brusho 😊

[@debbienolan7957]

Karen I have been following your videos for quite some time. You are an inspiration! I think the one in the bottom corner is my favorite - although the Brusho one is very lovely and dramatic. Thanks for sharing.

[@leighackland7989]

They are all beautiful. Just different. Thank you.

[@donnamurphey6886]

I really love the pen and ink lesson to let the ink be important for shadows. Thx. 😊

[@user-mw3uv3ii5n]

Oh, I can't pick a fav - they are all so interesting! Thanks Karen

[@annettebabic6699]

PEN and color is my favorite ❤️

[@joanpettengill2758]

Thank you for your generous teaching and inspiration.💕

[@edmcvey9360]

All are unique. Like them all.

[@peony4954]

I like aspects of them all but the close view of the top left particularly appeals to me for some reason …. Thank you Karen ❤

[@pavlabedrichova747]

You are the best, Karen. I really enjoy your ideas and techniques. And on top of that, you're cheerful and funny

[@cazthompson4797]

I love the top left painting and top right runner up

[@debraciola8998]

The Ink and Wash is my favorite!

[@Resgerr]

I like all 4 for different reasons

[@umabord]

Absolutly beautiful Karen, I love the wild brusho and the pen and wash 😍🤩❤
