Hi everyone, I'm just popping in to let you know what I'm working on at the moment. I've been very busy!  I've just started this pink rose because I needed to spend a bit of time painting. I've been at my computer so much lately that I was missing sitting in my little painting room with my paints and brushes. I'll be making a tutorial for you as long as it works out ok - so far so good. 

I've also painted a little bird, a Grey Fantail (pictured here). It's not too difficult so the beginners will find that one fun to do I hope. 

I'm checking through the 'Hairy Dog' tutorial now. It should be ready this week 🤞🏻. 

I'm also in the middle of writing a blog post about how I choose my reference photos, and what I think makes a good reference photo versus a bad reference photo.

As well as all of that I'm trying to finish my next Skillshare class which is a pink Galah. I'm checking all the videos and adding text. Then I have to film and voice over the supplies video. I also want to film a 'technique' video where I demonstrate all the techniques I'll use to paint the Galah. There's never a dull moment around here.

I'm very impressed with your beautiful paintings. The white rose paintings that I have seen are quite beautiful. That was a difficult painting so I'm super impressed and the sunflowers that you are painting are gorgeous too. Well done! 

Happy painting.

Thank you - flower is gorgeous and I love the bird! I Haven’t had much time to paint myself. My day job has a way of getting in the way. Hopefully soon!

😯Oh wow Louise- these look so beautiful and amazing. Thank you so much for all your hard work. I haven't been able to do anything yet. Hoping to start the sunflower tomorrow ... i know I'm biting off more than i can chew (beginner with slim to nil experience !), but you have such a wonderful, soothing and clear way of explaining things which gives me the courage to try. thank you!!!!!!!! edit so sorry to ask, how big is the sunflower from the tip of the top petal to the stem base- i hope that doesn't sound silly.

Thanks, Louise! Looking forward to, well everything you do, but just at the moment, the cutie Fantail and the photo post especially!

I love the way you paint. I’m learning so much. Thanks for sharing your knowledge of watercolors.

Looking forward to the Hairy Dog tutorial! I promised a friend a year ago that I would paint her pomeranian. I've been putting it off out of fear of failure. I'm hoping to pick up tips to help me brave though it! lol!

Louise De Masi

I'm uploading it to YouTube right now. A pomeranian....wow! I hope this painting will give you the courage to try. Thanks Terri.

Thank you Jessica. Yes I will make a tutorial of this one. It's finished and I have all the footage. I wanted to do a few different tutorials subjects first because I have two rose tutorials on here already. 💕
