great for techniques, but I prefer more realistic pics. This is too much like some of the coloring books content-not something I would give someone as a gift. Can you teach us how to make bouquet of flowers in a vase? That would teach me many skills I need for several flower types/ angles of different flowers in clear vase, table perspective, etc. Please

Hi Shoni. Thanks for being here! My niche is definitely easier paintings, beginner level, I taught intermediate for a while and there was extremely low interest in comparison. I have 197 videos up now so hopefully you can find another good video or if not perhaps a different YouTube teacher would be a better fit, there’s a lot of realism out there but we like to be colorful, simple, and whimsical here (: Thanks!
