You make painting flowers look so easy Holly, they don’t come naturally to me at all.  Painting with just the two colors was great, but I needed to add a little transparent yellow to the quin gold as my quin gold was too orange looking for me.  My stems didn’t come out as thin with the edge of the flat brush and my flowers are just ok, but I enjoyed the process and always appreciate the practice :) P.S. I thought I needed to buy a flat brush, but I actually had quite a few.  I guess I just don’t use them often so forgot about them.  Thanks again Holly, you always help me push through with flower creation!
