Beatrix Potter is a hero of mine, too. Her art work is only the beginning of how truly inspiring she is. She, almost single handily saved the lake district from development and also brought back an almost extinct sheep breed, she loved preservation, was the first to license her characters, and used her money to insure her independence from her parents. She is a role model for me. So much more than the artist we all know. You did a beautiful painting that honors her work!

You are incredibly talented……l have been doing little books for our severely autistic grandson who goes to horse riding….the little book was to teach him all about riding horses and l used your tutorials to teach myself how to draw horses…..the little books were a real success with the class. Now l am doing a book about his two pet rabbits and here you are again! With all the help l need! You are amazing! Thank you!

she is my hero as well. I love that her animals look like themselves and not cartoons. She had so many facets to her personality and it shows in her stories and illustrations. She was an amazing woman. especially for her time. I have a whole large page of swatched blacks. it's amazing how different they are. I am doing that with all my colors. It has really helped me refine my palettes

I love this little chickadee!! He’s so cute! Definitely can say that you are one of the artists I’ve looked up to most. I have a few different artists that I really like and I want to do something similar as you did here and replicate their style if I can. Maybe I’ll learn some new techniques and take something away that helps improve my own art

Hi Valerie, I love this, what a great idea of a series. I am looking forward to seeing more of your inspirations. You are definitely one of mine. I also am fond of my late mothers art too. As for others, Studio Ghibli for sure, Disney- Tom Bancroft for sure, Beatrix Potter, there are others but their names escape me. I definitely want to try doing this myself as I find there are things I want to work on too that I struggle with. Also my color theory teacher said and made me do the same about not buying black. I haven’t since as it is fun to mix colors but haven’t fully explored it with watercolor but definitely with gauche. Your piece turned out lovely and definitely captured Beatrix Potter’s style into your own.

I think i broke my laptop slamming down the left touch pad button when i saw the title haha. I love Beatrix Potter! She is one of my fave authors of all time and i even did my final art project on her work. I cried when my mam told me one year she was taking me to Windermere in the lake district, UK (luckily a couple of hours where i live) because she knew how much i loved her work, and we went to the Beatrix Potter museum and to the house where she lived. Sorry i got carried away, i get too excited when its something im passionate about. But yes do more in this series!
