Thanks! I'm glad you like it. By the way, if you ever use it in a deviation, could you send me the link, because I would love to see it!
If you never use it it's ok, it's really specific and not for everyone

Of course I'll tell you if I use it :3, actually I was thinking of painting a landscape or something like that xD, and your tutorial will be great for the concept I'm thinking :3

... I just hope I had some time to do it ._.

:3 but yes I will tell you when I finish the project

And I'm very happy that you think I can do a good job for your little flowers , thank you ^_^ I'm honored

I like the simple, clean layout of this tutorial. It is uncluttered, attractive, and the steps proceed at logical intervals with no large jumps in the process. The only part that I think could use some expansion is the first section with laying your blobs of colour - do you place your blobs wet-in-wet or through several passes of wet-in-dry? You could have added a section illustrating the different results of that choice, for the true beginners out there. Other than that, it is an excellent mini-tutorial and I'm sure any future ones you decide to do will be similarly high-quality.

Thank you! I agree, the beginning could have been more clear It is wet on dry, by the way.

You're welcome! I'll definitely be getting a white gel pen to add to the arsenal I have a silver one but it doesn't show up against every color lol

Yes do that!
There's so many possibilities with white gel pen.
By the way I looked at your gallery, very nice tutorials there too!

Very nice!!!!
It is not too small at all.
Good work with the girl's face; it's more correct in proportion than your other paintings.
About how long did this take?

By the way, would you mind if I gave you a link to my Sta.sh, I'm wondering if I should submit another food photography but I'm not sure if it's good or not. It's still in my Sta.sh right now.

So, I just looked at them, (as did everyone else reading these comments), and sent you my thoughts via note.
