Thank you for bringing me along! I had a wonderful time and I think I died and went to heaven! What a wonderful and beautiful day. I felt like I really was there. 🌺🌷🌼🌿🌸🪷💐🌹🌻🪷🌸🌺🍄🌾
I'm across the pond in Connecticut, US. ☺️ I have enjoyed a few flower shows in April down at EPCOT in Florida. I just love the creativity that these shows bring, all the planning, and how they bring their art to life. It's so relaxing 😎
I went with friends on the last day, when they sell a lot of the plants at 5pm. My friends so kindly bought me a ticket, which was a wonderful surprise! I took loads of photos to draw and paint from later. I really enjoyed your tour of the show and watching you paint the flowers. Thankyou.
I live in Illinois USA and have never been to Chelsea. Thanks for taking me along. It was great! England looks so lush and beautiful. Love your little plein air sketches too!
This was so amazing to see!! I LOVE painting out and about because I can find fabulous ideas for my canvas!! Thanks for sharing your day!! I've followed you since lockdown and you inspire me on my hardest thing to paint....flowers!! Just so beautiful!! Thank you from Canada!!
This was so cool, Harriett. My husband and I will be in London for two days mid June before leaving on a cruise to Scotland - hoping for lovely days like you had at Chelsea, to enjoy nature’s wonders. Thanks for sharing!!
How wonderful to spend time at Chelsea flower show with your Harriet. It looks so lovely and what a great day it was weather wise for you. Yes, it does make me want to spend some time out doors in my own little garden painting. As always you are very inspiring. A wonderful way to start my day with my breakfast on a bleak Bank holiday in the north of the UK. Cannot wait to join you again next year and I loved the journey in with you too. Thank you :)
Great! I just got back to my hotel and saw your video was uploaded - I just couldn't sit and sketch or paint, but am about to from my photo's - thank you for your video 😍
That was so lovely, I have never been to Chelsea only seen it on TV, it was great to see your own personal visit and felt as though I was there as well. Thank you so much.
😮😮😮 what a beautiful place. You look so pretty in the sun and all the trees and the flowers. Thank you for taking us on your journey. I so loved it and you Ms H.❤❤❤❤
Thanks Harriet for taking me to Chelsea. For years now, I don't miss a broadcast on the BBC, which I love. Your paintings are beautiful and you are a very joyfull guide, Thanks 🌺🌼
What a lovely tour. Thank you for taking us with you. It was interesting to see your painting kit, and indeed your makeup kit! Loved your paintings. David Austin Roses show there. We don't live far from them. I would love to see their display.
A beautiful day! Thank you for taking us along. Your paintings represented your surroundings and were so pretty. I hope you can share one of those with us in a tutorial? And good choice of foundation...i use IT cosmetics too! Great SPF.😁
What a beautiful place! I think you had a wonderful day walking through those gorgeous gardens, painting and relaxing. Well done Harriet! Thank you for sharing!
This was a great video, you must have been exhausted by the time you got home! It was so nice to see it from a visitor’s angle rather than just what you see on TV. I’ve never been and I now have mobility issues so it’s a daunting thought about getting round. I don’t know how well they are set up for mobility scooters, etc. Thank you so much for sharing it with us.
A lovely day trip. Thank you for bringing us along. Took me down memory lane. I went to the show twelve years ago. Your painting was beautiful . Thank you. 👍💗👍
Thanks so much for sharing, Chelsea is very special 💐 I have been fortunate and have visited on several occasions, it is indeed overwhelming! It’s sad we can’t share the beautiful aromas too! I would love to see more of you out and about, maybe visiting some of the many NT, RHS gardens, not forgetting the gardens open under the National Garden Scheme…I’m sure you would wouldn’t be disappointed 🎨.
Thank you Harriett! I loved how you were so comfortable painting at the show. Your tour was especially a treat, I live half way around the world and would love to pop on a train to visit the show!
Glad you enjoyed it, we want to do more of this intermingled with the tutorials as I'm really passionate about encouraging people to paint out and about.
This was just so fun to watch! We were in London last year when a lot of the prep for the Chelsea flower show was happening, but I have never been to the show, thank you for taking all of us with you!
I'm so glad you shared your trip with us. Lovely! It reminded me of being at The Huntington Botanical Gardens, in San Marino, California. Your paintings were lovely. Perhaps someday I can go visit the RHS Chelsea Flower Show.
Absolutely loved coming with you on your journey to RHS Chelsea Flower Show - thank you so much for videoing your trip. I’ve never been to Chelsea but used to love going to the Gardeners’ World exhibition at the NEC in Birmingham which was a brilliant day out. I wasn’t really into watercolour painting back then but not sure I would have been brave enough to take my paints with me haha. Loved your sketchbook paintings, they turned out really beautiful 😊
I can't believe it, I've been watching your channel since the beginning, I found you years ago on a Facebook group and I watch every video of yours religiously, only to notice TODAY that you're left-handed!!? 😅 Beautiful video my friend 💜🌺🌺
really enjoyed tagging along with you Harriet on your trip to the flower show! looking forward to seeing more vlogs on your en plein air painting adventures -- this is something I want to try but haven't found the courage yet :)
Lovely! I’d love to get to this someday (I live in Canada so we’ll see!) Do you mind sharing tips and tricks for painting outside? Picking what to paint/finding a focal point, etc.
Hi Harriet thank you this was a lovely treat, and my most favourite thing to do is look up at the trees and this was amazing to see. How would you paint that view? A tutorial maybe? 🙏😊
Probably the closest I will come to riding a train like that. I admire your ability to "paint what you see ". I am working on it but I still struggle. All of the gardens were fantastic. I absolutely loved all of the different clematis towards the end. The cherries 🍒 were amazing as well.❤
This was a delight! I absolutely would love more vlog-type content, and you’re a natural at it. Also, I might have fainted if I was that close to Joanna Lumley. 😂
It was my dream to go to the Chelsea Flower Show but never made it, despite the fact that I had lived in Amsterdam for 13 years. Just returned back to the US. I did, however, visit the Barnsley House when Rosemary Verey was still alive. It was amazing. And your painting is beautiful.
Oh Harriet - that was an absolute delight, thank you! I've sadly (and shamefully being English in England) never been and only previously seen 'official' tv reports but you know what... because they 'cut to this' and cut to that' and only seem to show the winners I have never felt any real connection or genuine feeling of the place until now. I am grateful to you for that :) oh and by the way your paintings were pretty good too!!! lol Thea XXX
The assumptions we make! Lol. I would have never pegged you for a breakfast KitKat eater! 😂 in my mind you were a prim elegant lady which you still are of course, who eats vegetables or a hard boiled egg and a bit of buttered toast with tea for breakfast It’s so fun to see you outside the art table for a few moments. With no makeup. You just got off the train, I must see what happens next…
It's ok to run out of time, the real joy is in the process and enjoying the moment of it. Not every sketch in my book is a finished piece. If you really want to finish though and run out of time it's worth grabbing a quick photo on your phone to work from later on 😊
This is our first time attending the RHS Chelsea Flower Show! It was such a wonderful day :) have you been?
Thank you for bringing me along! I had a wonderful time and I think I died and went to heaven! What a wonderful and beautiful day. I felt like I really was there.

Perfect abundance to be sure. Paraphrasing a sweet poem ..."In life's fair garden rare pleasures lie and will you pass them neglected by? No, not I."
What a treat to see the RHS Chelsea flower show through your eyes! Absolutely gorgeous. Thank you!
I enjoyed the trip. Thanks for taking us along!
You’re welcome!
Such a delight to be shown around the RHS Chelsea flower show and even more wonderful was seeing you paint in the gardens. ❤
Glad you enjoyed it!
I live in Illinois USA and have never been to Chelsea. Thanks for taking me along. It was great! England looks so lush and beautiful. Love your little plein air sketches too!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I throughly enjoy this video, what a treat. You are very lucky particularly seeing Monty Don. Thank you for sharing xx

Thank you Harriett! I loved how you were so comfortable painting at the show. Your tour was especially a treat, I live half way around the world and would love to pop on a train to visit the show!
It took a bit of courage to sit down and paint but I was so glad once I started.
@@deWintonPaperCo You are such a good artist, I am sure that the people around you loved watching a true professional at work.
I’m amazed at the beautiful flower piece you painted while sitting on the grass!
Thank you! Cheers!
I loved this vlog! You should do more! The flower show looks sooooo fun!

@@deWintonPaperCo I’ve never ridden a train, and I’ve never been across the pond, so I had two new things to enjoy! I live in the US in Alabama.
This was really lovely. You have inspired me to try some loose paintings. Thank you.
Thanks! We’ve just released another vlog from Hampton Court
Fabulous vlog,enjoyed it so much, thank you Harriet ❤

Outstanding!! Thanks!
You sure did have a beautiful day to go! That round sitting area with the chiminea would be a backyard dream!
This looks like so much fun ☺☺
Thanks Chantelle, it was!
That was fun. Thanks for taking us along on your outing.
This was just so fun to watch! We were in London last year when a lot of the prep for the Chelsea flower show was happening, but I have never been to the show, thank you for taking all of us with you!
Fantastic Harriet, what a lovely way to spend a day!
It really is!
I'm so glad you shared your trip with us. Lovely! It reminded me of being at The Huntington Botanical Gardens, in San Marino, California. Your paintings were lovely. Perhaps someday I can go visit the RHS Chelsea Flower Show.

Hi Harriet thank you this was a lovely treat, and my most favourite thing to do is look up at the trees and this was amazing to see. How would you paint that view? A tutorial maybe? 🙏😊
hi Donna, we do actually have a youtube tutorial about looking up at the trees and painting them

Thanks so much :) I'm still working on it too and it's always worth remembering we learn more each time we put paint to paper.
Thankyou so much! I feel like I've been too lol 🎉. Gorgeous paintings 😍 xxx
Haha, glad you feel like you've been too! Thanks for the lovely comment. xxx

I'm glad I could show you around a little bit :) Barnsley House looks amazing, I've not been but it's definitely on my list!
Absolutely loved this Harriet thank you SO much… was like ..oh noooo! as you came to the end 😂😂 Happy memories xx
Glad you enjoyed it :)
Oh Harriet - that was an absolute delight, thank you!

It’s so fun to see you outside the art table for a few moments. With no makeup. You just got off the train, I must see what happens next…
Haha, if it wasn’t a 4:30am start then yes! But kitkats were the best alternative!
@@deWintonPaperCoI bet they were! 😊
Truly enjoy drawing and painting outside. However, I run out of time before I finish the drawing. Any advice to help with this issue?
It's ok to run out of time, the real joy is in the process and enjoying the moment of it. Not every sketch in my book is a finished piece. If you really want to finish though and run out of time it's worth grabbing a quick photo on your phone to work from later on 😊
Wonderful armchair sailing to Chelsea! Just found you!
What brand of paintbrushes do you use, please❣️
Hi Debbie I use these brushes! dewintonpaperco.etsy.com
What time of the day did you go, it looks very quiet?
Press day!
@@deWintonPaperCo I suspected as much, lucky you.
if you stop to paint you must miss a lot of gardems. unless you know which ones you want to see
Well I had all day so I saw everything
