🌼 Daisy Gouache Painting Tutorial // Step by Step

Today I'm so excited to share this Daisy Gouache Painting Tutorial with some small flowers and dark background.

Wow, what a beautiful Tuto ! 🌼 Hats off to the artist, your daisy painting is superb, and your palette is just as much! I also appreciate the care you take in using good paper - so important in the practice of watercolor. This contrast between the dark background and the bright flowers makes everything so lively! Thank you for this inspiring tutorial, it really makes me want to subscribe. I also love gouache and your subjects are perfect for inspiration. 🎨😊

This turned out so cute. Great painting

[mollygilfillan]

I love your approach to painting with gouache, the dark background contrasting colorful flowers, is so fresh and bold! 🌼 And, extending the plant into the white is marvelous! ❤
Absolutely, THE BEST TUTORIAL on gouache I’ve seen. Thank you soooo much 🙏

[claudiafialhostudio]

Beautiful, and you totally right, if you don’t have the time, hours to spend on a painting, this will never turn out as detailed as we want. ❤ thank you for the tips ❤

[karenrye]

Thank you. I found you while looking for gouache tutorials. Thank you. I loved this video.

[HannaLehtonen-blkk]

Thank you for this very clear spoken and beautifully painted video. Great fun to watch, and imformative too. Have to go and try to paint this😜! Thanks❤.

[sillybugMaryam]

Lovely. Definitely going to try this. You explain so simply that I feel much more confident.

[carlienvandernet]

Thanks for another great video. You really made the painting come alive, althought I already just loved the white daisies at just the set up 😂. You make it so clear to us how we can make things come alive with just some shadows and colours and where to place them ❤.

[SonyaBatten]

Beautiful Thankyou you just broke my dry spell . I haven’t done any art for almost a year.

[dillaarts]

[sandyK]

I really enjoy your videos! Your explanations about your process helps me understand how I can try painting my own pictures. Thank you!

[jenny.s_attic]

Hi 😊 I always love to hear your kind and confident voice and attitude. It gives me that extra motivation and confidence as well.

[MrsTitina]

I absolutely adore your work ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[albaypuntos]

This is so helpful! ❤ I’m trying to improve my guanche skills ❤

[Karen_Tries]

I am doing this right now but on one of those Pantone postcards! ❤❤❤

[debbacon]

Thank you for a great tutorial. I agree on time spent on details. Do you remember how long this painting took to complete?

[toffylikesgames]

Beautiful result, I love how thick and solid the gouache looks here against a dark background :) I've found I love to use a blue colour for bg as well, though mine is Light Cobalt Blue and I can't stop using it haha!

[apaiiyui]

I finally jumped to the step to buy myself Caran d'ache gouaches tubes, they were expensive, but I can't wait to begin to paint (even if I'm abit scared at the beggining haha) 🙈

Your videos really helped me, and I'm quite sure that it's healing to paint, so thank you again for your beautifull art 🥰 it's really well explained and you take time to explain the details, I feel like I can try it, I love that from you, thank you 🙏🏻☺️

what was your favorite spread from 2022 bujo?<33

[Helen-sound]

When you said ‘polishing ‘ what did you mean ? Is it just a general term to describe the finishing touches ?
I have never worked with gouache before so I decided to look at some tutorials and found yours . I loved the video and the breaking out of the frame is such a lovely effect . ❤
