- It can sometimes be a struggle layering with watercolour - sometimes the paint just will not do what you want it to do - in this full tutorial I will show you how to paint this purple sweet pea flower and how to make the most of your layers, with tips on how to make a better botanical painting. I have listed all the materials below, but please use what you have. If you are struggling matching colours let me know and I will help you.

@@helencampbell Ok, thanks😘
I’ve just had a look. It’s next Tuesday 7th feb
About how many hours did this take to paint? Beginning to end. Drying time would be variable because of location differences, but I am wondering if this was completed in one day.
Hi. It took two hours
Me gustaria saber nombre de la acuarela bonito dibujo y su pimentacion gracias desde Perú
Thank you. It’s ‘sweet pea’ flower
Hi Helen. Where is the link to your unique way of blending. I didn’t find it
Hi. I think I mean this one. ua-cam.com/video/cNzNFmh2paQ/v-deo.html
Helen, my ipad mini does not have a description section, so I don’t have the link to the Rosemary and Co. brushes. Would you mind supplying it here? Thank you.
Hi. It will be under the video the same as any other device but here it is bit.ly/reddotminis
Thank you. I guess I never knew how to find the description. Does it matter that the brushes on the link have white bristles, not black?
Hi Susan - Sorry - the link I gave was for Spotters. - You need the Snowdrop Pointed Rounds - here is the link:bit.ly/snowdropbrushes
Hi Helen, I find my blending is nowhere near as good as yours. I always seem to have edges where I shouldn’t!
Hi. This video may help if you haven’t seen it already ua-cam.com/video/cNzNFmh2paQ/v-deo.html
First!
Yay
