    Absolutely stunning, Louise! Your instincts are spot on - both the turquoise background wash and the pan pastel added SO much. Thank you for sharing this with us. The big benefits we gain mentally and emotionally when we take time to create just for the joy of it are so worth the small amount of time from our necessary tasks. That is something I have to remind myself of often. I grew up with the value of “no play until all my work is done”. The problem with that is my work is never finished-there is always more to do… Thank you for the beautiful visual result of taking time out to play!
  • Those upclose shots as you painted the eye area was stunning... just stunning. Thank You for sharing your skills... you're a joy to watch!
  • This is one of the best if not the best Louise’s painting. Simply stunning!❤❤❤

    I never knew a Rhino could be so beautiful!
  • @sharonsmith2330
    Once again a beautiful painting, and each time something new for us to learn.!!! Thanks again😊
  • I always love you painting process videos. The granulation looks superb. Thank you Louise ❤
  • @cindybehr5283
    Your Rhino turned out gorgeous! I love watching your process and how the final project comes to life. Inspiring!
  • @dao8805
    More than any watercolor video I have seen to date, this painting showed off the use of granulation at its best. Now I want to try some granulating pigments. (Schmincke should cut you a commission!) Thank you for sharing and hope to see more of Leo :)
  • @ErinEnoArt

  • @user-tg8wh7uz3j
    Watching the unfolding of your animal painting is deeply meaningful and interesting. Brush strokes, pigment mixing, voiceover, each and all add dimension to the learning. Thank you.
