    Give mint its own place, partly shaded, it’s wonderful. My first marriage was into the family name of Romero. Found out it means “ rosemary” in Spanish. I had a lovely Sage plant that was hardy to -40 in Minnesota winters. Toads loved to burrow under it, to hibernate for our severely cold winters. I found Oregano quite invasive. That would be good to keep in a pot. I also had regular chives and garlic chives. They pop up all over the place, but are so cute it’s hard to be mad at them!

    In South Africa we call Cilantro either Coriander or Dhania. You can eat the whole plant, the leaves & flowers used fresh in salads & cooking, the stalks & roots in cooking & flavour more intense. Then of course the seeds are a different taste profile, used in cooking, pickles & we use it to flavour sausages (boerewors) & dried meats (Biltong). Love your videos😊

    I discovered that keeping it loose, quick and simple is a skill on it’s own. I find it very difficult not to go into detail that much. I really have to take the time for myself to practice loose drawings without thinking that I need to deliver a complete finished artwork. Thanks for sharing this. I love it.

    • @LovelyMalia

    • @thecreativecove6898
      @thecreativecove6898  2 роки тому +2

      There’s nothing wrong with detail. If that is your style go for it! There is a tip to loosening your drawings. Take a large blank page and draw something in front of you without looking at what you are drawing. It’s challenging but do it a few times or you can draw something In front of you for 10 seconds and then a new page. These exercises will loosen you up before you start to sketch. Just a suggestion. Have fun!

    Yep, I'm the terrified one who's afraid to try to draw. But I'm going to try this because I REALLY want to do these. And flowers you also did. I just ordered the .3 pen. But I will try with pencil 1st and I they are good enough, I will put a sealer over them. Maybe. These don't look so easy, but not impossible either!!! Will see how it goes! TFS. Austin TX USA

I don't have the labels but I will make rectangles with lines around them on one sheet give it some grungy one way or the other. And then do my sketching. Coriander and cilantro the same thing. My tarragon has longer skinnier leaves and my sage has more rounded leaves. But you have done a great job and I'm looking forward to doing it

    Cilantro refers to the leaves and Coriander refers to the seeds. You’re right…same plant.

    These are fabulous In my head I can do these perfectly we will see how my hands do. Coriander Vs Cilantro Google Both cilantro and coriander come from the Coriandrum sativum plant. In the US, cilantro is the name for the plant's leaves and stem, while coriander is the name for its dried seeds. Internationally, the leaves and stems are called coriander, while its dried seeds are called coriander seeds.
