Orchids Tutorial - Part 1 - intermediate to advanced (Patreon)

Hi everyone,

This is part 1 of the Orchids tutorial.

Part 2 of the Orchids tutorial is here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/61247312

All of the files you need to complete this painting are attached below my message here.

I've included plenty of progress photos to help you. Like always, take your time with the painting. I completed this painting over a few weeks......so don't rush it.

As you may know I've not had a good start to the year because I am very sick with Covid. I completed this tutorial in December before I got sick. Thank you so much for all of your kind wishes on social media. It means the world to me that you have been thinking of me 😘. This is day 9 now where I've been feeling horrid. I am double vaxxed but I am also an asthmatic so it has hit me pretty hard. The relentless coughing has caused me to lose my voice so I have been unable to work on editing any new tutorials. I tried to do some painting but I'm also quite shaky because of the increase in Ventolin doses I have to take so that hasn't been very successful. To occupy myself while I recover I've been writing a post about how I choose my colours for my paintings. I'll post it here on Patreon when I finish it. 

I hope you are well! I can't wait to feel better and get back to normal.

Louise

💕

My tutorials are designed to help you on your creative journey. Any painting you create from a tutorial where I use my own reference photo is for personal use only. They can't be sold or entered into an art competition. I write on the Supplies Lists where the photos come from. Permission is not given to paint any of my earlier paintings that are not tutorials because some of them are licensed. Also, a few of my earlier paintings were painted from photographs where I sought the permission of the photographer. The photographer gave me permission to use it, not others.

If I do a tutorial where I use another photographer's photo (eg from Pixabay or Unsplash) that is available for anyone throughout the world to download (copyright free) and use I’m happy for you to sell the paintings you create from the tutorial.

If I do a tutorial and I use a photo that I have paid for and downloaded from the website Wildlife Reference Photos in order for you to sell the painting you create from the tutorial you need to purchase and download the photograph yourself. This is in accordance with the Terms and Services of the Wildlife Reference Photo website.

If you share a finished painting on social media I would really appreciate it if you could link back to my account (be it on Facebook, YouTube or Instagram) and mention that you painted it in one of my tutorials. @louisedemasi

Thank you!
