    Emma, I love watching you. I am 60 something and I am returning to my love with art. You have encouraged me to try some new things. I understand wanting to make your son your priority. My two children are adults now and I am so thankful that I had time with them when they were little. I also have had mental challenges . Returning to watercolor has helped so much. You are keeping me company right now. Thank you so much!

    Freesia we used to call those the fruit loop flower when I worked at a floral shop. They smell so sweet and one color I can't remember which actually had a pepper scent. They're one of my favorites for so many reasons.

  • @consueloyoung4484
    @consueloyoung4484 Год назад +1

    I loved this video Emma!!. Though the realistic painting is indeed beautiful, I really love the loose painting more. I think it is because it has that fluffy full look that makes it more substantial. I did learn from this video because it was easy to see the difference you were trying to accomplish for our sake. Thank you Emma ❤

    Thank you. This was very helpful. I even want to thank you for making a mistake. Yes! It was helpful to see how you handled it and by the end, you could not tell it was ever made. That is very encouraging to the rest of us. I love your style and your gentle commentary. Well done!

    I feel like the loose watercolor flower captures more of why I love watercolor, the way it fades into the paper.

    Loose or stylized, Emma, you're the queen of florals, hands down. I have loved freesia forever, but have NEVER seen it that thick or large before! So gorgeous it looks fake. Your florist is the best of the best. Thanks for your thrice-weekly gifts. Much obliged.

  • @nancybroer4712
    @nancybroer4712 2 года назад

  • @crystaltanyoga
    @crystaltanyoga 2 года назад

    Thank you so much for showing both! As a very type B person, I really enjoy fast, loose florals. But the occasions I tried detailed, I realised I actually enjoyed it too! And because it took more care and time (something that dont come naturally to me), I felt like I accomplished something special.

  • @maryellenimdieke1850
    @maryellenimdieke1850 2 года назад +1

    This is an exceptional tutorial! I love to do watercolor but it doesn't come naturally. You tell me what I'm seeing and guide how to capture it. I gravitate to the detailed work but am trying to loosen up. This is exactly what I needed.

  • @kimle5069

  • @loveandlife4222
    @loveandlife4222 3 года назад

    Loose painting allows the watercolors to mingle and merge. That way the watercolor magic can happen. I do love both of these though! Thanks Emma!

  • @carynregan8319
    @carynregan8319 4 года назад +1

    I honestly liked the loose flowers... and then I saw the tighter, more realistic ones! I’m stuck in the middle... I like them both!! I think there’s a time and place for each one! Wonderful job Emma!! Thank you for sharing!

  • @marieobrien5628
    @marieobrien5628 4 года назад +2

    I love both techniques but the one on the right really stands out. I’m a beginner so I still need to learn how to paint like these. Thanks for such a wonderful tutorial. You make things look easy and attainable for a beginner.

  • @kirstenbarbero1099

  • @jennifertanner3753
    @jennifertanner3753 2 года назад

    This is so helpful! I really enjoy your teaching. I do find it it hard to see because the angle of the light shines in the wet paint and blows it out from time to time.

  • @MademoiselleRose40
    @MademoiselleRose40 4 года назад +1

    I really love the loose, it's more what makes watercolor so distinctive and beautiful. The detailed, I feel like you could do that by just using coloring pencils. You do beautiful work, I love watching your videos.

  • @barbarawilliams7012
    @barbarawilliams7012 4 года назад

    Thank you for showing the two together - it has confirmed my love of the loose style because the flowers look so much more organic and alive. Regarding bouquets, the loose one you showed us is beautiful and shows the delicate fragility of the blooms - an opportunity to combine the two styles with more detail here and there to provide focal point with harder edges. Great work!

  • @joyceshields9156
    @joyceshields9156 4 года назад +5

    I particularly enjoyed this as seeing the contrast of the styles helped me see what I prefer. I wonder if a combination of the 2 would be totally off. I’m trying to imagine a loose bouquet with more detailed florals interspersed to give definition. Would you begin with the loose style and create a composition leaving space for the detailed flowers? I’m trying to picture it with the detailed bits as ‘closer’ and the loose more as bokeh.

  • @laornyc
    @laornyc 3 года назад

    This was my best results so far after painting several of your tutorials theses past few weeks. So of course it’s my favorite to date. I never would have thought I could paint detailed flowers . Thank you so much I really enjoy your channel

    @roselynbaruch3697 3 года назад

    Gosh the two are beautiful 😻!! The loose one is almost impressionistic using the white of the paper, but it's good to know the details so you can work more freely I think. Love ❤️ your colours too!! Thank you so much

    I really like both, but the second one is my favorite. Thanks for another great tutorial! Your sweet and cheerful personality always shines through, and I hope you are having a lot of success with your channel. I have more difficulty with loose florals because I am more detail oriented, but these are really helping me LOOOOOSEN up 😁 and show that lovely quality of watercolors.
