How To Paint A Watercolour Daffodil
Flowers and Foliage Episode 46: How To Paint A Watercolour Daffodil
I can't believe this is the first Daffodil I've painted as a watercolour tutor. They are so beloved and I really hope you enjoy my take on a Cyclamineus Daffodil. (yellow petals and orange trumpet)

You are the best and most thorough watercolor teacher on the web. I've had it on my bucket list to get to be a somewhat adequate painter of watercolor flowers, and this year+ of quarantine, and being in the house seems the time. This one is the second of yours I've watched. Thank you for being so thorough! And your personality and lovely voice and accent just make it all more enjoyable. Thank you!
Wow Gale this is such a lovely thing to say, I really appreciate you saying it.
Best teaching point was what you taught about the circles. In a hundred or so tutorials I never heard that before. Thank you so very much.
Glad it was helpful!
I am SOOO very glad I searched here on UA-cam for help in drawing/ painting daffodils in watercolor!! Your tutorial here is what I SOOO desperately needed, Harriet. I took two pages of notes. Tomorrow, when I get home from tests and Dr appt, I am going to draw and paint daffodils. I will need a good relaxing time after the hours at the hospital.
Thank you so very much for this, Harriet.
Thank you for this tutorial. I've just finished mine and quite happy with it. I've framed it to give my mum on Mother's Day. When I was little my Dad would take my brothers and I to buy daffodils for her on Mother's Day then we'd go home to make her breakfast in bed. (back when one bunch was 10 pence!). I live overseas and haven't seen her for a few years so I hope this brings back some memories for her and makes her smile.
Ah what a lovely memory
New to watercolours and a clear tutorial- very calm and relaxing with no annoying background music.
Awesome, thank you!
Daffodils are one of my favorite spring flowers. I have them all around my house! These are beautiful, can’t wait to start painting these!
Wonderful! They're so cheerful aren't they
Wonderful reminder of Spring to come. 💕
Yes indeed!
Absolutely breathtaking tutorial, cant wait to watch all the others. Thankyou so much. x
Thanks so much Pauline! 😊
What a lovely start to the day to see your lovely painting demonstration.Thank you
My pleasure 😊
I remember violets from my childhood. We'd pick them as a neighborhood woman, Sally, took a bunch of us on a walk.
There were purple ones, white ones, and mixed up purple-white ones. 😊
What a lovely helpful tutorial, thank you. Daffodils are such cheerful flowers, just what we all need xx
So nice of you
It’s fascinating to watch you paint, while listening to your informative and light hearted commentary. These daffodils are beautiful. Thank you Harriet.
Glad you like them!
This is lovely. It’s a flower I’ve never got quite right so I’ll definitely be trying this.
I think it’s harder than it looks. That might be why it’s taken so long for me to do a tutorial!
So delicate and fresh looking! Mine have started blooming! these are beautiful!
Wonderful!
Thank you so much for that lovely Spring painting lesson. I thoroughly enjoyed it. 🌻🌷🌺
Thanks Yvonne!
Hi Harriet I have just painted these again and as a beginner I can definitely see improvement. I love your flowers, thank you

Such beautiful daffodils. Your teaching of the details such as shading and how to show depth is very helpful! I always look forward to your next video.
Thanks so much 😊
These are gorgeous! Love all the spring flowers and these definitely were a part of my childhood too!! thank you for sharing this with us! Truly lovely!! 🌼
You are so welcome!
You provide amazing and helpful tutorials! Your final artwork is absolutely lovely! Thank you!

I am new to watching your tutorials, but I really love that you make the flowers very realistic and yet not so detailed to make me feel overwhelmed. Thank you, Harriet. These are lovely.
You’re welcome 😊
You do such beautiful painting, Harriet, and are an inspiration. Cheery flowers for these cloudy days! Thank you!

I love these daffodils! You are an excellent tutor!
Thanks so much!
Such lovely daffodils! Thank you for this very comprehensive tutorial. I’m new to watercolor and I appreciate all of the details you provided.
Thanks Renee!
this is beautiful. I am a beginner watercolour artist and loved that you were left handed. (unless my screen is screwed up lol!) but as a new painter and left hander it was easier to understand the strokes and how you held your hand. I am constantly getting the side of my hand in my work. Thank you again lovely. - from Canada but born in UK.
I am definitely left handed! Thanks for watching!
Beautiful floral watercolor 💛🌿 lovely yellow!! This is so clear and vivid botanical art !! wonderful~ !!
Thank you for sharing your painting~ I really appreciated that ~
Thank you so much 😀
Delicate & beautiful,just as Mother Nature intended.💛
Yes indeed!
This was fun!! You are such a good artist! I appreciate and enjoy everyone of your tutorials.
Thank you so much!
Beautiful daffodils, the best daffodil tutorial I've seen! . 😊🌾
Wow, thank you!
I just love this. The transparency of the flowers is just superb. I would never think it was so easy to paint the trumpets. Well you made it LOOK easy. Lol. They are just gorgeous. Thank you so much
Absolutely beautiful work! I enjoy the patience you put into your painting.😊
Thank you so much 😀
Lovely. Enjoyed the tutorial immensely. Thanks so much.
You are so welcome!
So pretty! Can't wait to try it.
Hope you like it!
A very pretty and delicate art work. Thanks for being such a wonderful teacher!
Thank you so much!
I learned how do layering with this video. I learned how draw daffodils and paint the trumpet. Also I learned how to blend the greens for the stems of the flowers. I felt like I took a good class. It's the second time I watched it. I will watch again as I paint the flowers. It's so nice to just stop n start and keep doing as you are. Hoping mine are half as lovely as yours. Thank you Harriet so much for the time and effort you put into your tutorials. Who is the person behind the camera? Good job to whomever.
Ah thank you so much Marlene. The person behind the camera is my husband, Ant. He also edits the videos!
Super duper tutorial. I will be having a go tomorrow when my husband goes to work on a late shift. Can’t wait to delve in ☺️
Good luck!!
They do look fantastic!💛Beautifully loose and that layering to create just the right amount of definition💫So in love with your controlled loose painting style💛The filming is so great and clear, makes it so easy to see everything in detail, thank you Harriet for another fabulous tutorial!
Thanks so much 😊
Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you! Cheers!
Simply gorgeous! I recieved your book today. I have been reading it today, and hope to try out some of your teachings tomorrow. It's a very lovely book and your teaching style is quite clear and to the point. This is the style of painting I have been craving to learn. Thank you Harriet for being accessible to us that want to learn from your skills. You are very much admired and appreciated.
Thank you so much Sharon, I am truly flattered. I really hope you enjoy it!
Really enjoyed watching you paint these daffodils especially explaining the colours used and how you used the colours and brushes etc. Oh your painting is beautiful!
Thank you so much 😀
Really lovely! Beautiful!!
You are the best Harriet!
I also love the music on your videos, it's very peaceful.
Have a wonderful week!
Thank you so much!
I bought your book and it arrived today. I am so excited.

I love daffodils and needed this today as we are having a winter storm here in Michigan and are in the process of getting 8-10 inches of snow. I will be painting these later. Thank you so much for the wonderful tutorial!
Sounds great!
Gorgeous. I love daffodils 🌼

Success. I will try again this year and
Watch this several times. You do have some
Very fine brushes I notice.

A brilliant tutorial. The best
Wow, thanks!
Daffodils are one of my favorites as well! I was so excited to see your tutorial and try them. Look forward to trying again on better paper, but even the first try actually looked like daffodils! 😮 Amazing! Thanks for your great tutorials. Your painting is beautiful and my daughters and I have enjoyed trying many of them over the past few weeks since we found your youtube page. 😀

I adore daffodils. They are one of my very favorites. And I agree we tend to have a more special connection with the wilder versions of the flowers. At least I do. It was the same with the irises too. Thank you for yet another fabulous video
I totally agree!
Phenomenal tutorial, awesome daffodils. Thank you
Glad you like them!
Lovely! I am starting with one, this morning my husband told me daffodils are his favorite flower, and I also decided to pick one flower to master, so this will be it. Thank you Harriet!!!
