Keep the flowers. Dump design. Go back to the basics. Just make. Keep making. Love this tool!
This is how my day went. It was a good day. Tomorrow will be even better.

All You Need
is you. What would I ever do without Teal ink or Prussian Blue?
Here’s to Great Work
If this paper mat could talk it would tell you all about the projects gone wrong and the surprises gone right. Great work takes time and has to come from a place of one, me. These are words from the greats of the past and present. Here’s to the great work yet to come because what I believe to be good today will change tomorrow. The key to great work is to understand that your work is not going to look like other artists.
Paint More Of
Now these are the kinds of flowers I want to paint more of. Abstract flowers are my jam.
thought for the day
I could buy the same shade, brush, brand, hold my brush at the exact angle but my work isn’t going to look like someone else’s. I prefer it not to.”
Fingerpainting Flowers
saw a fingerpainting Butterfly post @ettave and had to give my flowers another try
Dot your paint adding white to obtain shades of pink and peach.
Begin with the tip of your finger and slide down.
One project many skills
I’m curious. Have you painted flowers? I’d love to see your flower paintings? Tag me on Instagram @creatively.hue. These yellow florals were painted with a small sponge. I like trying odd objects and discovering textures or new techniques.
Flowing Hearts
is relaxing and a great to express what Live Your Love Story Is all about.
So this is one of my favorite watercolor illustrations from the book
The other is this. Thank you reader for reminding me.
A flow of hearts will make a good book cover. There’s a few hearts that need fixing. Handwrite the title?
