    Really enjoyed watching the magic appear each time your brush touched the paper….really beautiful bumble bees, nice,fat, and fluffy . Reminded me of the magic paint books I had as a child, where you just added water and the colours appeared….But this time the magic was in the way you applied your brush, allowing paint to bleed just enough to look fluffy was quite an art, and as a beginner whose always wanted to paint bees, this was super! Thankyou so much for making something so intricate look so easy …gorgeous results and I’m getting my brushes out now! 🙋‍♀️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻💐
