    I haven't painted for weeks. Linda this morning I find this video and I want to have a go. There is always something that you manage to inspire in me, your pure joy is infectious. Your terminology is fabulous. So many different methods. Explained so even I get it

    Positive lifting is one of the best things that I learned from you. I use that technique in every painting I have done since I learned this and it’s a game changer.

    Kristy, I LOVE COLOR! and do not have a favorite color. This is just the perfect lesson for me. It is at a pace that I can follow 😊. I am going to try my hand at it asap. I love your way of having fun and relaxing way of making beautiful art to be proud of. Please have more lessons like this one. Thank you ever so much.❤

    I finally realize press , drag and lift is not fast, also the angle of the dagger brush is very important. I can take my time to make it happen. Starting to get it, Kristi!

If you have not properly patted yourself on the back for this one yet, do that a couple times. It’s an absolute gem.❤❤❤

    After finding your channel a few days ago, I am now binge watching them. I am not an artist, but seeing your fun and interesting videos, I now want to try painting for my own personal enjoyment. Learning your techniques have been very helpful. I need help with placement of petals, leaves and stems to bring more interest to the eye. My placement just seems too symmetrical and unnatural.
    Thank you for giving me an excitement for a new future hobby.

    I love the dagger brush, but you don’t explain how you turn the angle of it for different applications. I keep hoping to find a lefty for this type of tutorial. Thanks. ❤❤

    • @KristyRice
      @KristyRice  Před 3 měsíci

      For lefties you usually need ti add a small additional twist at the end of leaf strokes to get that fine point :)

  • @nancyhessler3358

    Hi new to your channel.. is the dagger brush the only one you paint with? I don’t want to purchase additional items so I’m wondering if I can get the same effect with the normal round brushes?
    Also any videos with the round brush?
    Thank you !

    • @KristyRice
      @KristyRice  Před 3 měsíci

      So I do love a dagger but I use many others. What you’ll find is that you can create the same shapes with a round but likely will need an additional stroke in some cases:)
      Yes I use so many brushes especially in the videos from the last year :)
