    You MUST find some sweet peas Emma! My fave. Their fragrance is heavenly and live the variius colors. Thank you for this great tutorial

    Very helpful lesson!
    The sweet pea vine is very curvy with little tendrils on the stems, reaching out for something to grab onto- usually a trellis or fence. The flowers are very fluttery, catching any hint of a breeze, making the vine quiver!

    This is the best watercolor sweet pea tutorial I’ve seen. You make it seems so easy. It’s Mom’s favorite flower, so I’ll definitely have to try it. One thing I think you could add....sweet peas have small tendrils that wind all over. It’s a characteristic pretty unique to sweet peas.

    Well done! You captured the sweetpeas beautifully,can almost smell them. A childhood sentiment. Thank you so much.

      They look very sweet! You really caught the delicacy of sweet peas. I think you’d like the tendrils they send out so maybe next time quick google the flower you’ll paint?

    I am completely blown away on how nice my drawing and painting came out I know its bc you gave us a lot of tips during the last few videos at least for me I didn't get to watch all yet but I'm really thrilled at how I painted that flower so fast and how nice it actually came out. it looks alive and pretty I am very proud of it! I am even more shocked at the fact that I still used my cheaper paints since I am waiting to get some new paint soon ...drawing is not my weakness its the drawing with the paintbrush, that was a lot of fun I was looking to make a poem over a painting for my brother and now I have something really nice to work with thank you, Emma, for another fine Video. You Rock Girl!!!

    Sweet peas are one of my most favorite flowers. You did a great job for never seeing them in person. 👍😉 They grow on a vine. The one's the neighbor had when I was a kid had many colors. They were gorgeous in bloom. They have a very light fragrance that is really pleasant so having them in a vase inside is possible. Unlike the heavy scent of Star Jasmine growing in my backyard. 😷🤭🤧 (said by someone who can get a migraine from smells)
    I'd love to see you paint the ones with a variety of colors. Very Springy or Easter thing to paint.

    So pretty! At first I thought you were going to do a color wash over the line drawing and was confused re. connecting it to the watercolor. I love the way you do not overwork your paintings. I have a major problem of doing that., and also have trouble waiting for the wet on wet to “do its thing”. Thank you for these terriffic tutorials!

    Here we are nine months later in 2021 and we’re still on lockdown. Anybody wondering how the entire world got sick all at once? We now have a vaccine, will they quit the lockdowns as I sit in another lockdown in January,2021? So basically we’ve worn masks for that entire time and it hasn’t stopped the spreading. Deaths are down,so why are yet in another futile attempt to keep people in prisoned in their own homes? Thank god for you! Your fabulous tutorials to keep idle hands busy. Love your work as well. happy New Year.

    Again I love this one! Love listening to your nice calm voice. I have a suggestion for next sweet pea painting. Most sweet peas have little greens coils because they are climbers. I think those would add a nice natural accent to the flowers. 😁

    I was literally thinking that you were gonna watercolor the first drawing, I don't understand how you and other artists are able to go directly with paint on blank paper.. I sketch even the simpliest things and even when the pencil actually "disturbs" whatever I'm trying to watercolor :\ I wish I had your freedom with the brush but I feel very confined and scared to dare, I get too anxious for some reason, I wish I could enjoy more.. btw your result is wonderful ^_^ thank you for this! I will try for sure

Awesome to watch how you apply the layers and shade in the folds of the petals - I feel like you let us in on a secret to all this! lol I also thought you were going to paint on the marker drawing - i have been dabbling with ' line and wash technique' and I am falling in love with it. If you ever want to show a tutorial on that I would love to watch it. Stay healthy and strong! Many thanks!!

Because of your tutorials, I have tried a little ink drawing and shading and really enjoy it! Do you have any suggested resources on more drawing tutorials like that?
