You can now buy the exact same brushes that I use in my videos in my Etsy store! https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/deWinton...

I am so excited to start painting some beautiful flowers in my new botanical painting style. The daisy is a great example of how to paint white petals on white watercolour paper. These daisies were growing like weeds in the cracks between paving stones outside our house. I want to paint flowers that are accessible to everyone.
