How do you paint flowers? Millions of people search for painting flower tutorials. I search too. The best idea is to paint.

With these florals, I added a little water to my palette and painted. I was second-guessing the brush, then began gliding on the page. Yellow Ochre was my hero! I added a few layers. Let them dry. Oh, that’s right, I sketched with oil pastels. It’s just a box of 12 colors that cost me $3. It was glorious.

Too bad I didn’t paint this on watercolor paper. I could have added the print to my shop. The best way to paint flowers is to paint them! There is a gem in every piece of artwork you make. Don’t worry about having the right tools or skills.

Let your spirit guide you. There’s a voice inside you that is shining so bright. Don’t let the darkness around you dim your beautiful light! You are a beautiful force.

From time to time, many of you express how my art brings you joy and inspires you to paint. I’m glad, and thank you.

Thank you for being here.
