About Instructor

I love your flowers!
Thank you so much Debbie!
Just uploaded my attempt for critique. Easy to follow instructions both video and written instruction. I used oil painting paper and although the guidance says that no surface preparation is necessary, I found the paper to be super absorbent which created many problems and affected the outcome. I will from now on give the paper a prior coat of gesso just to seal the surface. I’m beginning to understand the technique of painting flowers, but understanding is only slowly translating into developing skills! Great fun and I’d strongly recommend anyone attempting painting flowers not to be disheartened when their work is not as accomplished as Karen’s. Stick at it!
Hi Ian, Yes you should seal the paper first, it will absorb too fast so you will not have the flow of paint. Seal with Acrylic paint or Gesso. Well done!
