We've got so many Patreon requested tutorials this month! Here is another - the Dandelion - for you to enjoy. This has a nice amount of detail for you to take some time over and we paint the flower in three stages go growth so you really get a lot of variation.

Thanks so much for your wonderful suggestions. It's lovely to know that I can offer you this extra bit of choice as my Patrons!

I am growing some sweet peas in my garden( only a foot high so far) but I love them and would love to be able to paint them when they show their delicate colours- can I request a tutorial please? Ann Bonner

Good lord Harriet, that was magical! A dandelion has never looked so beautiful! You turned a lowly little weed into a true work of art. I could and probably will watch this many more times. Thank you for sharing your talents with us.

I love painting sweet peas. I have currently got a PDF worksheet in my art supplies shop for a sweet pea so it's probably lower on my list to do but I will certainly consider it!

I finished it too! Omg it's just a pleasure to paint it. Thank you so much.

They are quite pretty, my granddaughter just loves to find the 'wishes' and blow them into the wind. I am going to give it a try for a painting in her bedroom. You really did them beautifully. I'll post my final one.

This is my son fav flower and I want to paint them for him. I did do one in acrylic but watercoloring is so much easier and less messy.

I’d love to paint some bumblebees. These are SO important to the ecosystems for pollination yet many don’t like them. I’d love to show the beauty of the bee and it’s lovely place needed in the world.
