    So apparently watercolor UA-cam had Iris’s on the brain! I’m not the only one painting these purple beauties this week!

    Finding shapes and lines on the iPad is GENIUS! I’m on the edge of my seat waiting for your brushes to be in stock. Also waiting for your palette to burst in to the scene. I bet they’ll go fast! I feel like I’m waiting for concert tickets and hoping I’m closest to the beginning that I get a good seat and it’s not sold out. Really Kristy I do know your brushes and palette aren’t going to make me a great artist. I have too many paints and brushes now. But I just live how you’ve changed my experience in watercolor from struggling doing step by step tutorials replicating a piece- only to find when I go on my own I was so unhappy with my ability to produce much that pleased me. Therefore taking all the fun out of it. I want to support you in any way I can. I’m collecting your books and lately have been excited to get out of bed and PAINT. Thank you. I wish I had found you sooner. But I think I found you when I was supposed to.

    • @KristyRice

    Iris is my all time favorite flower (I even have one tattooed on my leg). It was my mother’s favorite too. I guess I would have to say laying down the map is my favorite part since I never know where to start. This video is definitely a save. Thanks Kristy.

    Dear Kristy, today I have received my 4 sets of your brushes. (I have made sure I will enjoy them for decades!)
    I have painted a beautiful landscape this afternoon, bc couldn’t help but painting with them today and I have enjoyed them SO MUCH! Really love them. They are cute and easy to use.
    I felt confident.
    Lots of love from Barcelona!❤️

    KRISTY PLEASE HELP!
    I came across your UA-cam channel earlier this week. I am completely obsessed with your way of teaching and your upbeat persona. I have been looking for new brushes for a while. Kristy, your brush set is exactly what I have been looking for. I went on Amazon and searched for your brushes. I tried searching under art for joy's sake and by your name, but I can't find them. I would appreciate it if you could help me purchase your brushes. I love to paint and due to arthritis in my hands I'm finding it difficult to hold my brushes. Your brushes are smaller and aerodynamic. I feel that they will be a game changer for me. I'm not sure if this makes a difference, but I live in Ontario, Canada. Thank you and I can't wait to finish binge watching your channel. 🌺😀

    • @KristyRice

    Hi, thank you very much for yur tutorial. I needed an Iris, because my collegue Iris has passed away and I wanted to make an Iris with my own hands for her memorial booklet. I made the picture with my Derwent Inktense pencils, so my Iris is not so very flow-y as yours, but I am very proud, since I have never ever done something like this. So thank you again!

    I appreciated your mapping on the ipad. That helps me break the iris down without feeling overwhelmed by its complexity. The details are magnificent! Your iris really does remind me of Georgia's!

    • @KristyRice
      @KristyRice  2 роки тому

      I’m so glad you liked the iPad thing! I’ve been trying to figure out a way to show what’s I see as I start to map out the flower :)

  • @MissMolly3377
    @MissMolly3377 2 роки тому +1

    I painted with you, it does resemble an iris...but I need to try it a few more times. I just allowed the video to play, at normal speed, and tried to keep up, and I am shocked it really looks this good, but I still have more work to do. I really liked painting in in layers, very light, to start....that really helped me understand how to get started, even if it is just clean water.

    Love, love this! The way you map it out, and break it down! I really like the way you say to ‘stack’ the strokes to get the ruffle effect! I try every year to paint iris when mine come into bloom- maybe this year I will be successful! Thank you!

    Thanks, Kristy! My fav part was the mapping out process. I have been wanting to paint a pale mauve and pale yellow bearded iris in memory of my father, as he used to grow them. I no longer feel intimidated to try since you simplified things with the mapping out process! Appreciate this so much!

Thanks for all of the wonderful and supportive ideas, strategies and encouragement for people to be free and creative.

    As a retired florist I just love to paint flowers and love your breakdown of the iris has made it so simple. I haven't attempted the iris because it was so intimidating. I would really love to see your way of painting the carnation which has been so difficult for me I've basically given up and that's so sad because the carnation and iris are my all time favorites. Thanks for all you do Kristy. Love to you
