Hi Harriet! I would still very much like to paint a house with a wooden fence along a meadow! Lots of love, Julie!

Julia

Hello, i would love fruits or vegetables. Or yummy disches. Also some things ralated to oceans and seas. Thank you ! Julia

Emelie Karnevi

June is the month of strawberries and Midsommar. 🍓☀️ I suspect a few strawberry ones have been done but maybe a drink like Pimms, margerita or daquiri with strawberries or a baked treat like cake or cupcake. 🙂 For midsummer, a traditional English may pole with ribbons or Swedish one with leaves and flowers are ideas. 🙂

Anna Rofes

Hello! I still would like a scene with a musical instrument and it would be lovely to have a landscape with some human figure as you did with the one with the lighthouse. :)

Randy R.

A flower common in North America, the Black-Eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta) would be nice to see. (Thank you for asking)

Cheryl Barnhart

Morning Harriet….🎣 A beautiful pond/lake sunset with a rowboat and fishing pole… A large mouth bass…. Something for Father’s Day 😁

Anne-Marie Serpaud

Est ce possible un jardin japonais (japonese garden)?

Amy

Hi Harriet, I know you've done oranges and lemons on the channel before, but I would love to see something like a detailed lemon tree in a pot, or one on a branch with the lemon blossoms. Thanks!

Leah

Hi Harriet... I've thought of 2 ideas: A Resplendent Quetzal bird An underwater scene

Debbie V

I would like to be able to paint a complete piece with a background. A flower or floral painting with a simple background.

Annick Van De Wiele

A picknick basket... I would love to learn the technique to paint a woven basket 😊

Eun Kim

Would love to learn how to paint the folds in fabrics, perhaps folded up scarves or a still life of a table with a table cloth on it

Debbie Williams

A selection of fruit pies in a bakers window

Christina Moxon

Some beautiful videos this month, thank you! Anything featuring rain would be lovely. I love rainy scenes. Although that's not very summery is it? Maybe something that could go on the wall of a kids room or nursery?

Sue Lea

Hi. I'd love to see how to achieve a waterfall with rocks

CynthiaJQ

Hi Harriet! Just love your buildings. A sweet little thatched cottage with a picket fence and flowers would be wonderful!

Bonnie

Hi Harriet! I would love a 2 or 3 ring wreath that featured wildflowers! :)

KirstenR

I’ve seen gorgeous ideas on here. I’m so excited to be on Patreon with you! I have your books- but would not mind a talk through on peacocks. Maybe one with a big spray, and one with a downward cast to his feathers?

Bonnie

A sunrise over a field of flowers would be lovely too!

Martine Schauwaert

In Europe june is the month where summer says hello, but down under winter is coming. Can’t we do something with that in one piece?

Susan C Terris

My favorite suggestion - a Pelican! If not now, then whenever. I'd also love to see how to achieve a rainbow after a summer rain in Hawaii, with the red dirt below. Thanks for all the lovely tutorials.

April Haxby

A bride would be lovely for me. In fact I need two brides, but one would do, as I can double up - maybe under a flower arch? Or under a rainbow?

Kate Knapp

Grapes on the vine in a vineyard.

Brigitte

An underwater scene with colourful corals and fish would be nice.

Heather Karstens

I agree about loving rainy scenes. They can be so serene and soothing or more moody and dramatic. Both are lovely.

Suzanne Spruijt

Something iridescent, like a beetle. Several Chrysolina species are very beautiful and quite common.

Suzanne Spruijt

And something fathers day could be fun. My 8 year old son enjoys your videos almost as much as me!

Carolyn S Cibik

Dear Harriet, Everything you come up with is so lovely! I was wondering if you might do a little mini village - nothing too complicated! Maybe like a road going into a small village - which could be as whimsical as you desire!

Uta

A British seaside scene or a boy on a bridge fishing would be lovely.

Juli St

Floral bouquet and/or wildflower meadow

Tammie

Yucca plant, art supplies

Carol Barnard

Gypsy caravan on the edge of a wood or river

Suzanne Spruijt

That would be a lovely thing to paint! But if you don't mind, a kind reminder that 'gypsy' is often considered a derogatory term. You might want to use romani or sinti instead...

Nini

I’d love a pomegranate! They look like a perfect painting subject. Or a betta fish with those nice translucent fins.

Amy Lilley

A beta fish, more roses (like the one you did recently, but different angles/ composition), a daschund (I have a beautiful dapple boy if you need a reference photo 😉) ❤️❤️❤️

Carol Barnard

I am quite aware that some may consider the term derogatory. However I am describing an inanimate object for the subject of a painting and if you don’t mind and even if you do I shall continue to call said object a gypsy caravan

Teresa Collard

Maybe a tree-lined road curving in the distance or a nice summer landscape with blue skies, trees and flowers.

Leah

I have a doxie too! That would be so fun

Tess Vonfeldt-Gross

I like the idea of a summer landscape! How about also a little cottage?

Terri Robertson

Ice creams with sprinkles, raspberry/chocolate drizzle, and a Flakes (other chocolate bars also available!), colourful cartons for the ice creams. 🍨🍦😋

Magda De Victoria

A beach scene with palm trees, seagulls, sailboats, and maybe a little shack in the distance.

DeePee

A horseshoe with summer flowers would be lovely.

Lucie Butcher

A summer landscape with a winding road and poppies

Susann

I’d love to paint some miniatures - maybe holiday souvenirs or maybe in some postcard style? Or a card for wedding anniversary. And I loved your journalling nature videos (like the forsythia). Could there be a typical flower or tree of June which we can paint as a whole and as well a branch with leaves? And rather for Patreon than for YouTube: I’d also love to paint some typical summer holiday scenes (coast/cliffs, mountains, trail, windmill) or a underwater scene. Thanks!

Christie P

maybe some summer line and wash doodles

Shelley Cartman

I would like some ideas for different birthday cards, especially male, and a landscape or two would be good. Thank you very much.

Atelier Dalrún

It would be interesting to learn how to paint stain glass windows or even a rose window for a church scene.

Jana

Bakery windowscape? Similar to the floral shop?

Jana

So many great suggestions this month! I'd love to paint a Scottish/British Castle ruins? Or famous rock formations around the world (American Badlands, Kyaiktiyo Pagoda in Myanmar, Arches National Park in the US, Castle Rock, Stonehenge, Moai - Easter Island Heads, etc.)

I might put that on the list for Autumn when we're all in the rain again!

Thanks Harriet ! I will check that !

Love the fishing Idea !

Emelie Karnevi

Most (Swedish) celebrations take place in a big garden or countryside so any outdoor green setting works. 😊 ooh I look forward to that! Thanks for letting me know! 🍓

Martina

A horseshoe with flowers please!

Anita D

Horseshoe with summer flowers

Sue Lea

Hi. Can we see you doing this live online? Or is it a video. Which ever day and time. Thanks

Black Eyed Susan or other summer florals would be lovely
