    Who else has a box of sea shells they're not sure what to do with but they're just SO PRETTY!?

      I have loads of them in glass containers and in open bowls throughout my home 🏡 or just sitting on my coffee table looking pretty 🤩

    The shells are so beautiful - I love the muted colours. This would make a lovely card. Hope you'll do some more marine and nautical themed tutorials in the future.

    Thank you for posting this video! I have lots and lots of shells that I enjoy trying to draw and paint. This video will help me improve my shell painting skills.
    Quick cheat tip - if you have your own shells you can trace them which I have done in the past. Of course this only works with flat shells, conches and whelks you have to draw on your own.

    Watching you painting, your voice, your talent, is being curative for my soul. I'm going through a not very happy time in my life and every time that one of your videos come up to my mobile, makes me smile and enjoy. I can be also a good professional and you are an absolute inspiration Harriet.
    Thanks for everything. I hope to meet you someday. 🙂🎨🖌🖼

    Now that so many of us have your brushes, I wonder if you might consider doing an episode dedicated to them? As in which you use for what, any specific tips and tricks, care of them etc. I have used them a couple times now and am finding their spring and the length of the bristles something to get used to. I do love them!

I’m wanting to paint 4 different pictures to become a 4 some on the wall framed for my daughters new home. Maybe feathers ??? I am a beginner and these are turning out so good. Thank you!
