Hello Marjorie,

Thank you, you have just confirmed the techniuqe which I myself have been thinking of trying, I can now proceed with greater confidence.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Hello Marjorie,

Thank you for your wonderful video. I do a little painting but find I have most success with soft and oil pastels..... would I be able to apply your techniques to these mediums please ? Thank you in anticipation for a response.

Best regards.

Bruce

@dook2u1 Hello, I think that to use my technique with pastels, you would have to lay the pastel stick on its side and make each petal in the middle color...(Pink), then add the highlight and shadows later. I can't explain it better than this. good luck, Marjorie

Dear Marjorie

Lovely roses and with a light hand - that gives the best result. Thank you so very much for teaching us. My motto is" If just more and more people would paint there wouls be no wars". Thank you for helping the world.

@RoseOfTransylvania . Hello, thank you for your compliment and for taking the time to write.

Is that a fabric you are painting on? 

[MarjorieHarris]

@zainycoool Hello. In this demo, I'm painting on a laptop sleeve. It looks like leather but it's really just

some sort of firm synthetic fabric. If you adjust the water when you use Folk Art Paint, it will cover most things.

Sometimes I use Folk Art Satin Varnish in my paint and that seals and paints at the same time. Thanks for your comment. Marjorie

[Zyther212]

Hello, I would really like to know what do you fine best to paint you roses on? I am really curious, I have looked at several of your video's and I would like to know if it colored Bristol board? Or is it canvas. I have seen you use several different materials.

[MarjorieHarris]

@Zyther212 . Hello, thank you for your comment. I paint roses on everything...walls, furniture, etc. One of the dmeos on line is painted on a laptop bag. Folk Art Paint (acrylic) works on almost anything.

Thanks again, Marjorie

[MarjorieHarris]

Hi, Thanks for your comment about my new demo. The worksheet isn't laminated but you can put plastic over it. So nice of you to take the time to write. Marjorie

[nabila1D]

@MarjorieHarris what paint did you use



[tawnybearhrtbrk]

@nabila1D she used folk art, i think the colors she used were baby pink, white, and burgendy

[RecksieLou]

Marjorie! Oh my gosh I am soooo excited about your roses! I just ordered a DVD from your site a little bit ago and am planning to paint some of those pretty roses on an old dresser. You know, your style reminds me of china painting. I love your water-color-y blended effect. Its just so gorgeous! Can you tell me...the worksheet that is included with the DVD...is it laminated so I can practice that way, or is it just regular paper? I beleive the DVD I ordered is the Roses II one. Thanks!

[TheLeeLeeButterfly]

This is so amazing, I'm gonna try it as soon as I buy really good brush. :)
