Much better sense of space and depth. I discovered that is part of the journey and your then and now shows amazing growth. Absolutely love your lessons.
I just found you recently. I have always done oils, acrylic and enamels- always afraid to attempt watercolor. But you gave me the courage to try watercolor and I immediately found my work loosened up with even less work!! Everyone I show my new work to is amazed at how it looks already. I can't thank you enough for your patient teaching and your clear instruction!! This video you asked if we saw any difference. What I saw was more detail in your work. I'm smitten for sure!!! Thank you!!
Those fresias!! To create white flowers on a white page, using a grey wash ...and they're still clearly white fresias!!! 😮 Brilliant and beautiful, as are the other flowers. 👍👏😀😘
Wow. Your flowers are gorgeous. I especially love the white freesias. They really are beautiful. I also couldn’t figure out why you didn’t like your peony from last year - I thought it was gorgeous, but when you explained about how your greens have evolved, I understood what you meant. The flower itself is gorgeous, and I absolutely love peonies. They are my favorite flower in my garden. Thank you for all of your wonderful videos. I am new to watercolor, and I find these very helpful.
Definitely improvement but it's funny to hear you roll your eyes at your previous work. That peony is still super pretty but you're right, entirely different styles. What really stood out to me was the freesia... Just stunning transformation. Love your videos. How lucky we are to have you!
I have been watching you through two babies so far and I would be thrilled with just painting the first peony. I have been trying and perhaps trying too hard. Lots of frustration and tears trying to find my style but I will keep practicing and keep watching and perhaps I will get there also. Thank you so much.
There is definitely more vibrancy and detail in your work now and just more accuracy overall, such as color and shape. I'd say you are indeed improving as you go, hence leading us on. Thanks pal.😁❤✌
I love you white flowers! This was an amazing tutorial! it's always amazing to me to see how much people have grown and how their art changes yours is beautiful!
I have only been watching you for a few months and think you are soooooo gooood! I am trying to be a little looser in my work. I can absolutely see your growth! I can only hope....
I too have just begun my watercolor experience. I love your style! I love the “noises in the background “! They add to your down to earth style. I have been practicing my strokes, washes and bleeds, etc. It has been so much fun, and I can see my progress. As I have watched, I have wondered about more shading (probably from my painting acrylics days) so you’re new more developed style is interesting to me. I’m not quite ready for it, but soon! Thanks!
Well I see more attention to detail and as you said perhaps using colors that are more true to nature. I too see that my style is changing as I gain more confidence with repetition and experience with color and using the brushes. You make painting with watercolor seem effortless and it encourages me to be brave and try something new. You have a gift to teach as well. Thank you!
I had been watching the old video to learn about flowers...your loose style appeals to me. Now, this video really brings it all home and lets me progress from too loose to more realistic. Thank you so very much Yes, you have improved!!!
The extra layer really makes a difference. Enjoyed it and learned a lot. I am going to give it a try. I am still new and have only done the tulips. Your tips and watching how you do it is really helpful.
not only the mixing but ur leaves r much better and the peddles also..would love to c u do a land scape..im also getting better thanx to u.keep it up.this keeps me layn down n inspiring me.ty so much n ur time.
I found you because of the original watercolor florals video and you've only gotten better! Thank you for wonderful teaching and art. Whenever I'm watching these videos, I'm always unsure about the flowers initially and I feel I blink and BAM it's absolutely amazing lol I aspire to be as great as you one day :)
I recently started watching you during the pandemic and I love your work. This video is amazing and shows how your work has evolved. I love your patient way of instructing through your videos.
Great stuff, I've only just discovered your channel and you have a great technique to explain what and how you are painting. In addition you have set up your camera and lighting perfectly, it makes it easy to see exactly how you are painting, mixing colours and using the brushes. As a beginner at this I have found these demos very useful and just the right amount to get stuck into and have a go. I haven't got your subtle touch or more measured use of water and paint yet. I'm still a bit heavy handed I think, but I enjoy the effects it produces and the intensity of such beautiful colours found in wild flowers. I hadn't painted flowers before, having been put off by over technical botanical type painting styles. But your "loose ans relaxed" style is not only much more enjoyable, it also gives a very good rendition of the actual flower. You have earned another subscriber here, keep up the great demos and sharing your artistc flair in such a personable, easy to follow way.
I love your videos! I can actually follow them and I learn so much. I'm a tank beginner but I'm having fun. That freesia is amazing! I see the details in the latest video but the first ones were lovely, too.
Wow! You have improved significantly! I’ve not been watching or painting much for about a year. It does my heart good to see your beautiful face. You inspire me to get back in the grove and I am painting again! Thanks for all your hard work!
I think both sets are beautiful. The wonderful thing about art is that you get to create on your own terms. It's all "impressionistic" that's what art is. You're take on what the world looks like through your eyes. Keep going!
Emma, I love your videos, you have such a clear, patient teaching style. You are not afraid to point out your mistakes, so we can see how you work around them when they occur. Your colors now are much more realistic - the tulips and peonies in particular. I really appreciate how you demonstrate tapping in a bit more color as you go along. it's so hard to get the right balance of water and pigment, so this is a good teaching moment. Thanks!
I thought the extra detail was very good and made the newer flowers really pop. Actually, I liked last year's flowers too. Unfortunately, the gray did not show up enough under the lights to really see your work, so I would recommend avoiding washes that are so light! Thanks so much for the nice video and all of your hard work!
You've absolutely progressed in the sense that your style now is tighter and cleaner, more detailed (as you stated). I do like your style better now, but I have to admit I also really like the loose florals as well. They're both really pretty, and they both have a place, if that makes sense. ❤️
Hi Emma, I agree with many here. Both sets are just lovely! I am very new to this and have already learned so much from you! I love how you model so easily that it doesn’t have to be perfect and we can always keep learning. It’s very freeing for me personally. Colour mixing and being brave enough to add detail without fear of wrecking it is still a challenge for me so it’s always helpful when you show how to correct stuff. Thank you for taking us along in your journey! 🌸
I love the way you simplify the loose effect I will try and do some loose watercolour I am more in to landscapes in my watercolour paintings but loved the flowers and the robins you did just using the loose style getting the shape of the bird in I v tried robins before without success look forward to seeing more of you r videos in the future
Good Morning Emma. I see confidence. You are starting to come into your own style. I enjoy watching your videos and seeing your beautiful creations unfold. Thank you for your tutorials.❤️
This slow and detailed painting session is sooooooo helpful. I really appreciate the time Emma. For me as a beginner it’s like having my very own private tutor. Now if you could just send the white space fairy round to my house all will be well. Oh and stop making it look so easy - yes that would be good as well lol. Keep these coming. xx
Emma, I started painting in watercolor last August and I loved watching your tutorials and trying to follow them. They are so great for a very beginner. I love the progress you have made and I think I have also grown a little better. I love your easy style and your tutorials. Keep them coming, please!
I would be thrilled to paint the first peony much less the second one. Many tears so far on my part but with continued watching, and practice, practice, practice I will get there. Thank you so much.
I'm posting this to my art group! All I can say is what a difference a year makes! Everything has changed, from your petals, to leaves, paint ratios etc! Seriously Emma - you could so paint your dog! I honestly do not believe that you couldn't give curly pet hair a crack! This video, it's a lesson for all of us! Thanks for posting this, it takes a lot of guts!
You are amazing Emma. I have recently started watercolors and have sort of binge watched all your videos. The way you explain is so easy and simple. And great progress 👍 it gives hope to my sad looking flowers ;)
I like your flowers today and see great improvement. I have a watercolor journal of sorts, where I can see how my work improved from day one to the present. Lots of practice helps me feel more confident with my work and I can see measurable improvement over time.
Think you are a terrific artist! I watch all your videos and wish that I was sitting right in that room with you taking classes! I have learned a lot from you I must say. Keep the videos coming. By the way.....your son is adorable! Annette Mangone
Really love your work and your tutorials are always helpful. I see that your layering of color (both wet in wet and wet in dry details later) has brought more contrast in your values making your paintings more vibrant and interesting.
Great improvement in the past year. Keep up the good work. FYI - you mentioned it being hard to find Bee Watercolor paper. Just heard on the frugal crafter that the Bee paper company has been sold. Hopefully they will start selling their watercolor paper again when the sale is final.
great comparison on your flowers. I really like the more detailed new ones you just did. The white flower is stunning. Thanks for all of your videos. I always learn something new.
You are more confident to add more detail.....Myself I go so far and know I could go further but stop in case I ruin it. Love your tutorials! Appreciated
This was a fun idea... I think I’ll pull out some of my paintings from a year ago and do them over! It’s a great gauge of improvement. Your tulips are so realistic now , honestly I love both the paintings from a year ago and now, but I definitely see more realism in them!
I'm so new at this myself, it's difficult to put into words. It's like just more professional, more finished. You give me courage to keep trying, and you inspire me. Thank you for doing what you're doing.
I love both, but do prefer the peony shape from last year’s best. I also agree that your color mixing this year is more nature like. You always inspire me, thanks.❤️
They are more realistic and I love the new look. You have surely grown and become truly an artist in your own right. Love the video's Emma please keep them free for us newbies...... Hugs from Minnesota
Neat idea. You can see the improvement. That means there is hope for me! Watching your hand and brush strokes is my favorite. They are beautiful. A from Oregon
So beautiful, I see much growth in your work but more than that, I cannot wait for the next video, you are very real, down to earth and easy to learn from and follow!!! Great job Emma!!!
Delightful Emma! I really appreciate your honesty, beautiful paintings. The recent ones show your use of more pigment & your peony is just like the one growing outside my bedroom window. Last year’s peony seems more like rose shaped. I love the ‘white’ freesia, white is difficult to portray but your freesias ‘pop’. Both paintings are amazing, you will still get people who watch both, Congratulations 👏🏻
Beautiful!!! That is great encouragement!!! I have been painting with you for about a year...I feel like I’m progressing too!! I also think, after painting many other things, I have come to realize that flowers are what I most love to paint! Thanks for teaching me! You, by the way, are the one who explained to me what a difference paper makes 😊
Thank you so much, Emma! A lovely tutorial. It is wonderful to see your art blossoming! I think I will try and start with one flower each day, maybe do tulips first. I love your art and these amazing videos! Stay safe and well. Love seeing your little Guy. 🙂💚🌿🎨
I love the way the details make the flowers look more 3D, especially in the white flower. You are such an inspiration. Thank you so much- we love you in Australia!
Your work was lovely then and now. Two slightly different styles and both gorgeous. I am trying to paint more loosely, so I'll keep on with your first style. I'm awful at adding every detail so the almost stylised, ethereal look is what I am trying to achieve. Long way from there yet though, but I love all your work. Thank you so much for sharing your talent and knowledge.🥰
Love your videos. I started watching your videos about 3 months ago and was so inspired that I started watercoloring along with you. I can’t comment on your paintings from last year - but I can say you are really quite talented and I love all your floral paintings and love your tutorials as well. Thank you for sharing.
I have been watching your tutorials since September. I definitely see an improvement in your work. I hope I can make some improvement in my work. I get very frustrated when things don't come out the way I want. But I have to realize it take tons of practice. Keep up your work. Love it!
This is very interesting! I love your style. I'm told that we should keep all of our work and compare where we are now to where we were so we can see how we've progressed. Looking at some of my first work is painful, but necessary and I really can see my progress. Love this video. Thanks for all you do to inspire us. xo
Now you add more texture with more overlapping layers, are more comfortable painting white on white flowers but you have always had awesome color mixing skills! I love your videos, they are my favorite
I love your videos. I appreciate your being so honest about the areas you have improved in and how far you have come. It gives me hope that I can improve too. I do like the colored freesia better than the white one, just because I like the colors.
Thank you for all your recommendations. I am new here, just learning to paint. You are very easy to follow. I like that you show every move and explain every step. I have a hard time mixing colors, but you're helping me greatly. Thank you.
I’m new on my watercolor journey and hope to see this sort of improvement in my own art! It looks to me like you’ve become more comfortable putting colors closer together and aren’t afraid of them blending into one another as much.
Loved it! Thank you! Your work is amazingly beautiful, then and now. When you pointed out how to make the greens more earthy, I noticed it and understand now how to do it. You ROCK!
Wow! Your progress gives me hope, that my painting will also be much better in a year) Your tutorials inspired me to begin watercolor practicing and keep inspiring me to continue! Thank you so much!
Hey, Emma! Just wanted to let you know that the first video of yours that I watched was the one that you mentioned here, the original spring flowers tutorial. I found it absolutely wonderful, and when I tried to recreate your paintings, it worked really well. I was (and still am) a complete beginner, and I am very self-conscious when it comes to painting. But when I saw how great my peony looked, I was inspired to keep going. Now every time I'm in the mood for some water-coloring, I always go to your channel. Thanks a lot!
You have improved a lot over the year and encouraging for those of us still struggling. I still struggle with how much water to use on my brush and on my paper (wet on wet). Thx for this video.
Beautiful flowers👍😃 Thank you so much I will try it🌸
Much better sense of space and depth. I discovered that is part of the journey and your then and now shows amazing growth.
Absolutely love your lessons.
Wow!!! I enjoyed the first but was mored amazed at the second!!! You're so amazing, Emma. Thank you so much!!! 🌸🌺🌻😊
You are the best at showing how it's done. The outcome is fabulous. I am saving this video.
You were great then and even greater now! What hasn’t changed is your warm and generous personality. Thank you!
Xss

YOU are teaching me to paint ! Im so grateful ! I’ve dabbled for years but you are a game changer! Thank you ❤️
Thank you for sharing your new thoughts and techniques
Super video! You seem to be stronger with your colour application. I like that!
I think both sets are beautiful. The wonderful thing about art is that you get to create on your own terms. It's all "impressionistic" that's what art is. You're take on what the world looks like through your eyes. Keep going!
Beautiful paintings. I love to watch you paint & I hope to try doing this one of these days. I need water color supplies first.
Emma, I love your videos, you have such a clear, patient teaching style. You are not afraid to point out your mistakes, so we can see how you work around them when they occur. Your colors now are much more realistic - the tulips and peonies in particular. I really appreciate how you demonstrate tapping in a bit more color as you go along. it's so hard to get the right balance of water and pigment, so this is a good teaching moment. Thanks!
Brand new to water colors. Your videos are great.
Emma, I love your "old" flowers, too - they are also very beautiful - and the "improved" versions are gorgous - thx for your tutorials

The Freesia almost look a bit like Bell flowers. I'm amazed how the grey shows up so well it's very pretty.
So helpful. You really are a great teacher. Thanks so much and Happy New Year!
Just great and easy (well on the video :-)) ! Thank you so much.
Beautiful ! I really like the way you explain 🌺🌺👏
I'm posting this to my art group! All I can say is what a difference a year makes!
Everything has changed, from your petals, to leaves, paint ratios etc!
Seriously Emma - you could so paint your dog! I honestly do not believe that you couldn't give curly pet hair a crack!
This video, it's a lesson for all of us! Thanks for posting this, it takes a lot of guts!
You are amazing Emma. I have recently started watercolors and have sort of binge watched all your videos. The way you explain is so easy and simple. And great progress 👍 it gives hope to my sad looking flowers ;)
Great art pics and info. Thanks.

Hi Emma, I am so happy to have found one of your wonderful videos and I am hooked! I am a real beginner.
I like your flowers today and see great improvement. I have a watercolor journal of sorts, where I can see how my work improved from day one to the present. Lots of practice helps me feel more confident with my work and I can see measurable improvement over time.

I think they both look wonderful, I can see that you have progressed with your technique. Great job always!!
Really love your work and your tutorials are always helpful. I see that your layering of color (both wet in wet and wet in dry details later) has brought more contrast in your values making your paintings more vibrant and interesting.
Great improvement in the past year. Keep up the good work.
FYI - you mentioned it being hard to find Bee Watercolor paper. Just heard on the frugal crafter that the Bee paper company has been sold. Hopefully they will start selling their watercolor paper again when the sale is final.
I think you are very brave to do this video where you essentially critique yourself. Thank you so much! You give me confidence to keep trying.
I think your work shows more confidence. The layering of color looks more realistic. I love it!
great comparison on your flowers. I really like the more detailed new ones you just did. The white flower is stunning. Thanks for all of your videos. I always learn something new.
You are more confident to add more detail.....Myself I go so far and know I could go further but stop in case I ruin it. Love your tutorials! Appreciated

That was super, Emma. Great to see your progress. Tutorial is encouraging to everyone working to improve.
Love your videos! I am a beginner of watercolor, and learning a lot! Thanks
Stunning work now and then! You are my inspiration to start painting again. More love!
I love both, but do prefer the peony shape from last year’s best. I also agree that your color mixing this year is more nature like. You always inspire me, thanks.❤️

Keep up your work. Love it!
Love your tutorials and it so beautiful what you are drawing.
Thank you!🌹
Muy bonitas flores, me gusta mucho tu estilo de pintar con acuarelas. Gracias.
This is very interesting! I love your style. I'm told that we should keep all of our work and compare where we are now to where we were so we can see how we've progressed. Looking at some of my first work is painful, but necessary and I really can see my progress. Love this video. Thanks for all you do to inspire us. xo
Now you add more texture with more overlapping layers, are more comfortable painting white on white flowers but you have always had awesome color mixing skills! I love your videos, they are my favorite
Yes your work is definitely better
I’m so impressed by your ability to”tap in “ color so beautifully. I’m hoping I’ll be able to learn that. I love the “watercolor magic” it creates !
I love your videos. I appreciate your being so honest about the areas you have improved in and how far you have come. It gives me hope that I can improve too. I do like the colored freesia better than the white one, just because I like the colors.
Thank you for all your recommendations. I am new here, just learning to paint. You are very easy to follow. I like that you show every move and explain every step. I have a hard time mixing colors, but you're helping me greatly. Thank you.
Absolutely beautiful! I am going to try today! Thank you!
You're a star Emma. Thank you for your candour. I'm so blessed to learn from you. Lotsa love to you and your loved ones from India.
Last video was very inspiring, you are a wonderful explainer too, this is even better 👍
The freesia is amazing!
I’m new on my watercolor journey and hope to see this sort of improvement in my own art! It looks to me like you’ve become more comfortable putting colors closer together and aren’t afraid of them blending into one another as much.
Loved it! Thank you! Your work is amazingly beautiful, then and now. When you pointed out how to make the greens more earthy, I noticed it and understand now how to do it. You ROCK!
Wow! Your progress gives me hope, that my painting will also be much better in a year) Your tutorials inspired me to begin watercolor practicing and keep inspiring me to continue! Thank you so much!
Hey, Emma! Just wanted to let you know that the first video of yours that I watched was the one that you mentioned here, the original spring flowers tutorial. I found it absolutely wonderful, and when I tried to recreate your paintings, it worked really well. I was (and still am) a complete beginner, and I am very self-conscious when it comes to painting. But when I saw how great my peony looked, I was inspired to keep going. Now every time I'm in the mood for some water-coloring, I always go to your channel. Thanks a lot!
Excellent
Love the freesia but love ❤️ them all
Thanks so very much 👍

You have improved a lot over the year and encouraging for those of us still struggling. I still struggle with how much water to use on my brush and on my paper (wet on wet). Thx for this video.
Your flowers are really delicate and beautiful!!! You make me want to give it a try, your explanations are so clear. Thank you Emma ! 😘😘😘
Love it. Awesome😁👏
