Thank you, Lisa! Watercolour is not the easiest medium to use in real life. Using digital brushes could also not be the easiest medium but the way you have created your brushes and arranged them into different sets is an enormous help. If I tried to use a a digital brush corresponding to a real brush I would be hopelessly lost! Thanks to you I have more confidence in brush choices. While you say this is a simple flower, it is nevertheless a very effective one and the techniques used will be appropriate for more complex work. The overlay of watercolour paper really makes a big difference to the finished work.
I look forward to seeing more of your brushes in action. There are so many of them I will be taking notes for what to use where
Kind regards,
Chrissie
