Hi Everyone, I'll see you soon at 9:30 AM PST!

Thanks for voting for the picture we will paint together in the live class this week. The picture attached to this post is the winner that you all voted for and I cannot wait to paint it with you!

How live classes work: At 9:30am pst the class will be live and you will be able to click on the link to join and watch live. Remember, if you can’t make the live class the replay will be recorded and available to watch any time.

I can't comment on YouTube so I am waving 'hello' from the Netherlands, for you to read later :) Very happy with this time for the live class, thank you!

Karen

I'm in on the class, but I don't know where people are putting messages. Here from Pennsylvania!

Can you show the reference picture please?

Loretta D'Ermes

It's so helpful to see your paper towel. I'm struggling with water vs. paint quantities on my brush.

Anne

Still here, in full focus ;)

Susie Putnam

This one will be hard to draw. I was hoping fir a traceable for when I try it.

Loretta D'Ermes

Thank you so much. I watched and will make an attempt soon. You're a great teacher.

Krista Andersen

Well, made it through most live then had to pause to get my wall color right then I hit it too deep and then it all went downhill from there - way too dark and muddy. Going to try this one over from the start on another day.

Anne

Thank you Kristin! It was my first time in a live class and I loved it!

Wilma Voermans

The painting is beautiful. Esp. the flowers, so so soft! But I do not understand the door..It is not open, because I see no part of the door going inside. But it is not closed too, I cant see a handle . Can you help me out how you mean this ?

Kristin Van Leuven

Oh yes that looks weird. The direct opening shouldn’t be so dark. I’m going to fix it and upload a correction video

Ida Bochner

This is so gorgeous. Thank you Kristin. Can’t wait to try it.

Ida Bochner

One quick question. Is there an outline drawing for this tutorial? Thank you.

Debi

I can’t believe I missed the LIVE! I even had it on my calendar. UGH !

Liz

I’m never able to join the live class, sadly, but when I rewatch on Patreon, I can’t get full screen, which I really need.

Bear Raeb Barrett

When you start the video in Patreon if you click the screen and go over to YouTube it will give you full screen

Bear Raeb Barrett

I missed it and I knew all about it… just forgot :/

Tracing paper or buy an app called “De Vinci Eye”

Monica Clemens

Just watched my first class. I can’t wait to try to paint this! It’s beautiful and watching the steps I think I can do it! Glad I joined. ❤️

Wendy

Yes I can hear you 👍🥰

Wendy

I’m from Hampshire UK. It is 7.24am here. Because I’m on a cruise ship near 🤔 somewhere! 🤣

Wendy

What about the door and window?

Wendy

I’m lying in bed watching 👀🤣

Wilma Voermans

So nice of you to reply on this. Now it makes more sence to me . You wanted a open door Thanks!

Anne

Replay crew but I hate my first attempt. Will try again.

Susie Putnam

I really enjoyed watching this I will paint it on Friday maybe. I have to draw it first.

Argee

Replay crew here- I am so excited to try this after watching this all the way through. It looks possible!!! I am so glad I voted for this photo and I was thinking the very same thing about tiny painting #13. I'm pretty sure I'll have to have a couple of goes at this but it's amazing how much I'm learning here with you-thank you!

Anwar Molani

I was on vacation when Kristin had this live class. It took me three days to watch the entire video and every second was worth it. This is a God gifted talent that Kristin possesses. She is so good at teaching art.

Ida Bochner

I don’t know about anyone else but I’m having such a hard time with this painting. But I love the painting so much I’ll try again.

Nancy Draper

I just tonight finally got a chance to try this one. My biggest challenge is mixing colours like yours - my door and window frames were much darker than yours - - I couldn't get that tan colour. It was a long video, but I learned things. Let's just say that mine is somewhat "hard to look at." LOL ! Nancy, Vancouver Canada
