I really like the way to capture your technique.

Alison, Thank You, I am learning so much from your very generous youtube tutorials ….. I’m not sure if you are aware of the range of…. Flat fur watercolour brushes ? ….they come in sets… typical flats of synthetic hair, with the trailing edges becoming separated and very fine…. ..they work beautifully especially for larger areas of fur… or for obtaining a furry edge….. twisting a flat fur brush as you paint helps with fur direction too…. …….

Exactly what I wanted to see! Where did you get that ceramic pallet?
