    Your tutorials are theraputic.. I suffer from certain chronic anxiety and depressive and other disorders, and find it extremely hard to function in a normal pace,, and your tutorials, the soft colours, n everything about these videos kinda work like therapy for me.. This channel helps me a lot in dealing with my tough episodes❤

    Thank you so much, i have problém with self harming and because back to school I've been really stressed and wanted to do something to myself, but then I randomly found this and did it. This helped me calm down and stoped my thoughts for a while. You saved me from bleeding more blood, thanks. I will use this as much as I can and maybe it helps me stop or save my life one day☺️. Sorry if is my grammar wrong I'm using translator..
  • Never tired of florals 😍😍 Beautiful 💕 Thank you for inspiring me to make art tutorials too 😁😇
  • @nancybroza7478
    Thank you for the tip about adding red to the bright green that really made a difference!

    I was never good at watercolors even though I learnt art for years and did v well at pencil sketch and pastels. When I started watercolor painting after many years I stumbled upon your video. It helped me a lot. I didn't know painting roses was so easy until I saw your video about 3 ways to paint rose. I come here a lot but I'm commenting for the first time to thank you for the wonderful videos. and yes, painting loose florals is therapeutic
  • I absolutely love painting flowers! I’ve been practicing. I just want to do an arrangement. I’m consistently watching this video to become familiar. I love color, so I will need to tone the colors down a bit. But the arrangement you just painted is gorgeous. I will be trying it,
  • I love our color palette of pinks and peaches and the mossy green. In love with this artwork
  • @macCALICOmac
    I literally opened YouTube hoping to see a video by you on watercolor flowers (I know, I can’t get enough, I rewatch them all the time!) and what an awesome surprise to see this video first on my feed. It’s a good day! 🌸
  • @pamketron
    I love this one Shayda! Really pretty flowers and leaves. Everything just flows so well together. Great job!
  • @safuratahir3456
    Love it when you say it 'perfectly imperfect!' It makes me feel more confident to try this loose watercolor painting. Btw, i'm just a beginner. 😍
  • @jenscloset
    I love painting along with you, no real rules! Very chilled, this has helped me so much!!
  • @zebaanwar4752
    I painted along with you, a bit different but same techniques and I'm so happy with how it came out ❤

    I love watching you paint on hot pressed paper. I’m just beginning to try it after using cold pressed for decades.
  • @TheViajeros

    I LOVED THIS VIDEO! Especially the part where you mixed the colors because I am a newbie! I was able to recreate something I was proud of!
