How could any artist watching this video series not fall madly in love with gouache? There are soooo many things about this painting that deserve mention. Just REALLY, REALLY well done, Lena! I know it sounds like a broken record... but... you are much appreciated for this series of paintings in these wonky times. Each painting video is eagerly anticipated and always a bright light in our day! They never disappoint. BRAVO! ENCORE!

I am loving seeing new videos from L. Rivo daily. I wish every month was Plein Airpril. 💖

Exquisite, Lena. It is wonderful watching you, the skilled artist and teacher, demonstrate the principles you so brilliantly teach in your learning course, “Colour Mastery”. As a pupil of yours, I can now hear your voice as I process think the steps whilst you paint. All of these varied and beautiful paintings are wonderful gems for reinforcing learning. Thank you Lena. 😊

They call this garden Katya`s "Secret Garden" in her neighberhood.
It`s so tiny and has only a few flowers .She has believed that If it has a white flower,
it will bring her happiness.

I love all your videos. I am curious. What brushes do you use for Gouache. I’ve painted with it once. I mostly paint with oils. This is, as with all your art, beautiful ♥️😷✌️🎨
