Diana, good afternoon! Thank you dear for the wonderful drawing lesson!!! Very beautiful !!!!
I will NEVER complain about the cost of chinoiserie art again. This is truly incredible. The detail is amazing!
I agree 😊
I we’re incredibly blessed to have an artist who is willing to teach their beautiful and rare form of art. Thank you, Diane! I’m looking forward to getting my silk painting sheets to get started.
Thank you so much for the kind words and for your silk paper order - you will love it!
I was worried too, about the neck...the leaves gradients are very nice.
Thanks Diane your work is really beautiful! I don’t have silk paper so I’m following along using fine cotton stuck on board 😅
Please do more of these! They're so great
You are my favorite person... So kind and giving, and oh so talented! Thank you!
Aww you are so sweet! Thank you!!
Love this! I am a painter and have kind of been doing a version of this in my own style. Now I see how I can add to my work and learn something new by painting on silk- I’ve never painted on silk and just ordered your kit! Exciting!
That's so exciting! Silk is definitely a game changer! Feel free to share your art and tag me on Instagram :)
Thank you for giving us a behind the scenes look at your beautiful work!
Thank you so much! I purchased your class and look forward to getting started. Love the idea of pulling the color for shading. Ty!
I'm glad you made and shared a free, complete tutorial, Diane. I am so looking forward to learning from you, a master in your own right.✌️
Thank you for the kind words!
Thank you for showing us your drawing. It is incredibly fascinating to watch the pigeon take its shape step by step. I look forward to further teaching content from you. Kind regards
My pleasure 😊
It's so lovely. What a beautiful way to use guache or watercolor. Thank you for this .Can you do a tutorial please? I'd like to learn.
Gratitude Diane, once again your generous spirit and talent shines brightly!
So I've just ordered a set of your brushes in addition to the silk paper I have already from you and so very excited to begin painting! Thank you, B x 😘
Thank you for taking the time to comment, you will love your brushes - I am excited for you to try them! :)
You have a great voice to listen to and your instructions are so clear!
Well that is the best feedback ever, thank you so much!

Amazing!!!!
From one ARTIST to another bravo, thank you for sharing this beautiful technique. Your control is amazing. Your artwork is lovely and your color choices are perfect bravo bravo.
your work is like a dream, so stunning. i am also an artist, so i have some confidence that i can do this - however you make it look easy! i simply cannot wait to try this. i want to do a whole chinoiserie in my dining room, so i will contact you on how to order the paper and brushes. thank you so much for putting this out there on youtube, just brilliant
You can do it! ❤❤
SO cool, thanks Diane. Those feet are brilliant, honestly they are soooo flipping hard to do. Loved watching, thanks!
Wow! Can’t wait for your tutorials ❤
Beautiful work…
Beautiful. I found some peel and stick wallpaper that took me down the rabbit hole of Chinoiserie. I love it and adore your work. I was looking for some images that I could copy or use as inspiration. Even went downtown to The Peacock Room at the Smithsonian in DC. What patience and skill it takes to paint like that!
How amazing, I’d love to see the peacock room in person!
Thank you for this video. You’re the only I’ve found teaching this in a bit of detailed. I’m want to learn it as my new medium. ❤❤❤
Fi is going to love this!!
Yay! :)
Thank you soooo much Diane for sharing. This is such a fantastic tutorial. You are such a great real teacher, absolutely no need to be self critical, you did an amazing job, well done! Can't wait to receive my brushes and silk paper to get going. Thank you again. x
Oh this is so great to hear! I have no experience with teaching and always worry, but I'm just settling into it slowly, I am excited to share more :)
Thank you for sharing your beautiful art and techniques! 💜
I just recently stumbled upon you on IG, gorgeous work! Beautiful video, I paint birds and botanicals as well.
I love your approach and sharing the background of Chinoiserie. 🌿✌🏼🤎
thank you so much for doing this. you have no idea how hekpful this is
This makes me so happy to hear!
If possible, show us in the next lesson how to apply a design from capirka paper to paper!!!! Have you done this with a bird's paw? You can tell us and show us how to do it step by step. We will be very happy!!!
Thank you so much. What a beautiful, calming and instructional video!
Beutiful painting, really informative, I love this.
I have admired your work for a long time, and I love that you have given us this amazing demonstration. You do really beautiful things with gouache! I love this.
What a brilliant tutorial! Thank you 😊
You are so welcome!
It looks so perfect! Thank you for doing this video😻
Ah thank you so much, it is a pleasure!
I also have one of your phone cases too and love it! ❤❤❤
I'm so glad you love it! :)
This was mesmerising, thank you so much! I've been rather obsessed with chinoiserie for decades and it's been wonderful to see your business progress. With your help I really hope I can create some of my own! I can hardly wait to get your ebook on the 22nd and I really hope your e learning course comes soon after! Thank you so very much for sharing your incredible skills x
Really love your style and your clear voice.. I’ve got the brushes and paper… I’m looking forward to your on line classes .. thank you xx
Thanks for a great tutorial! For anyone thinking of painting along, I recommend watching the whole thing first as there's a section where Diane redoes some of the feather work - I'd diligently followed her previous steps so did want to cry a little bit at that point 😂 Looking forward to the full course and tips on mixing the right consistency of paint as I've definitely not nailed it yet!
Hi Caroline, Oh no I am so sorry!! I will bare this in mind for future videos, feedback like this is super helpful. Please share your bird painting with me, I would love to see the result :)
LOVE THIS!! Can you show a completed full-view painting each time TY
Thank you so much for sharing your techniques! I know it takes time and can be daunting to do tutorials, so it is much appreciated. I love that you explain your thoughts and when something doesn’t go to plan (like the pigeon’s head) you showed how you changed it into a result you liked.
I have been using Chinese watercolor paints in the gongbi style on cicada wing paper and have a difficult time getting the same color dynamics, even with many many layers. I would love to try the gouache paints and your silk papers. I am curious - are your silk papers already paper-backed or do they need to be mounted once the painting is complete?
Thank you so much for taking the time to give me feedback, the silk paper is already paper backed :) I often give it a quick iron after I finish a painting and leave weighed down in between books for a super smooth finish!
I’m very interested in learning more, and looking forward to receiving my art materials!
I love your paintings of nature. Can you tell me where I can get the good synthetic Chinese brushes? 🙏🌳
Your work is truly one of a kind, just stunning! May I ask, how are larger wallpanels treated after the painting is finished, to make it more durable (as wallcovering) and not water-soluble?
I imagine only guache on silk would be incredibly sensitive?
Thank you!! I worked at one of the worlds leading silk wallpaper studios and we did not seal or varnish panels unless specifically requested for a high moisture area like a bathroom, or for an events space with very high traffic. Varnish can change the beautiful soft sheen of the silk, and cannot be brushed on. If someone caused damage to a silk wallpaper, I would visit and touch up with more painting, or we would ship them cut out butterflies to apply on top of marks.
@@dianehilldesign interesting, thankyou for answering! That's very helpful to know!
What kind of paper would you suggest one uses if yiu are jist getting started and don't have access to silk paper?
Watercolour paper would be ok to practise on :)
