Learn to Paint One Stroke - Relax & Paint with Donna: Lilac Bouquet in Jar Vase | Dewberry 2026

Hi guys today I'm going to be using my Where does it say my name on here? It always says that maybe they changed it but this is vases and jars, okay, but This must have been way back before when we first started All right. So I want to show you how to make this without see you can tell I stenciled with paint But I want you to see that if you if you draw Halfway, so we're gonna draw right here with a pencil Okay And this is half of the jar up there right here here halfway Okay, and then i'm going to slide over. Oh, no, I want it down So i'm going to come down like this Remember it comes down And make the jar to here Okay So see how it's got half of the pencil Okay, so And right here it did Right here didn't show much Okay, so there Now i'm going to come over here This is where the jar was There so now i'm going to move over And make it a wider jar Okay So now i'm going to bring this over and it's going to touch And put down and do a little bit further down I just match it to that And then over here so I didn't match that too good here, but it's easy Especially when you have paint on there The paint shows through a lot better Okay So that's going to be our mason jar. You can make it this small size That's a smaller size jar, which looks good in many painting. You can put the ball on there if you want that um, I kind of lean away from that because I don't want um That company to have a problem with me. All right. So then what i'm gonna do Is i'm going to come in here With a 16 flat that is not good Let's get that paint off there before it gets all over me There you go All right, so i'm going to come in here with a 16 flat There's two different ones All right, so I am going to use some floating medium and i'm going to come right in here So I hit with that first and then I did floating medium which made it way too watery Okay, so what i'm going to do here Is i'm going to come right around here And get the outside lines for this jar I'm going to use this jar as a vase Okay, so I can these little screw marks When you get the stems in here, you'll come back and put them in there right now Right now we're just coming in here And we're coming over here Okay, let's get some more medium because this is art paper. This is multimedia Pads of paper and they're the weight of them You want like 180 160 to 180? Weight so that it doesn't Wrinkle up when you paint it. Okay All right I love getting ready for the seasons that are getting ready to come here If you're in the fall, you will want to be doing things for the show Shows are to decorate your house and more Okay So I can come in here And work this in So it's not just a wide band You want it to shade see how that is? You want that shaded look not a strong line Sometimes I want a strong line Now this you can look at it two ways You can look at it as It went up on the front But hopefully you look at it as it's going down And it's inside the jar You see that? You can take away some I can wipe this off even on paper. I can take away some of this All right And I can come in here And do a little bit of a water line Okay Because we're going to put stems in there And see if you do that the water line would be Like this in the back because that's what you're going to see there. Does that make sense? See this line? It's an oval. This would be an oval This would be an oval. You see that? All right now this paper if you're on canvas is going to let you do that a lot easier than that just did All right, and then i'm going to come in here with medium and get thicket and some of What was this? This one is wild wasabi And this one is alfalfa So see that's got some olive color in it But I can put out some wild Wasabi also, I know that's loud if you're You have your earphones on you're saying Donna don't do that again Okay, so The first thing you do guys is you're going to come in in here and Okay, I can get some medium here All right. So what I want to do is Find a cute little surface cutting boards or our little inexpensive canvases And just make some fun little designs like this that will That people can go. Oh, I want that one because it's got that color You know this one i'm using purples, but it could be all juneberry. It could be all blues. It could be all pinks So be thinking about that. Okay So i'm getting this ready For us to put all kinds of different Uh, what do you call it? leaves and Looks on here So we're gonna come right down here Okay Now what what you want to do now? Is I can come here Okay And we're just going to have a few coming out of here different places This is with a 16 you can use a different size brush if you want Okay, we got the wild wasabi Okay See, let's put some of that wasabi in there. You can even put white with the wasabi Okay All right And I can even have a few more that come out here Okay and hanging a little bit So it's hanging on this side of the jar not that side and What I would do you can do three or four of these at the same time But i'm gonna dry right here And right here This is with my heat pen okay, so So what you can do Is let's get like a smaller brush And i'm going to put floating medium this is an 8 or 10 And then i'm going to come right in here and pick up the white Okay, so what's going to happen is I'm going to take and put these rings screw rings like the jar Okay And then you would want this on front of the stem See that And I can come in here And get some greens in here Okay And a little bit darker up here It's got a glare over the Over the jar a little bit Because it's shadowing it you see that And I get up through the screen over because I touched it Okay So that gives you a little bit of color inside And I can just pick up white and I can bring a little bit White along there like a glare And in here There's a little bit of purple And it has a clear A little bit over here Got pieces of lavender that's fallen Okay And there's just little bits of glare of it in here of the lavender That looks pretty easy so far, right? I like to have relax and paint things that you could paint that you will just go. Oh I like this. This is fun. You know, that's what I want you to think about all right, so We're gonna pick up Violet pansy and neon purple. Okay, so i'm gonna come in here with a little bit of that and even some juneberry Let's get a little bit of white with the juneberry And there was some white in there and a little bit over here Okay so We can be a lot heavier on this side A little white a little bit of purple All right I'll put a little bit of juneberry in here So is that kind of pretty? You'll see how quick that was so think about it You make pink ones blue ones all kinds of shades of different ones yellow like yellow ochre and white And make it more fall. You can tie your ribbon around it up at the jar lid and more. All right, so just be thinking This is not covering it. Well, so I can go a little bit darker and There you go, so I can also just do floated Look at this. We can go really light watercolor effects See just a little bit And you could take floating medium with a little bit of pink or purple See a lot of floating medium With the purples You like that? A little bit in here And you put a little bit out here All right, you sign and share it. What do you think? There you go. These matte really pretty so you get a soft green matte and this is gray paper This is actually lighter And I don't right. Let's see what it says this one This is gray tone This is only 80 pounds and the reason I looked is because I can see That it's warping up a little bit from the dampness But when that dries you can iron it even and get that Iron the back of it and get that wrinkle out of it But it's perfect for matting perfect for put it think about putting on a greeting card. It's giving it as a gift With a mat and they can frame it like they want to frame it and more okay, so This is really cute on a t-shirt.
