The new class sounds wonderful! I love nasturtiums...such friendly flowers. 😊

Flowers, they are so beautiful and unique each of them, I have a red rose garden and love them, but I also love all the wild ones, especially the blue ones. Forget-me-not must be my favourite among them.
I love them all!! Too many colors, textures, and shapes to pick just one. I saw a black petunia for the first time this year and it looked like velvet!

My favorite flower is the Chrysler Imperial Red Rose. It is a beautiful red and very fragrant. I am looking forward to taking this next class. Thank you. You are a wonderful teacher.

Peonies are my fav's. Just cut off the last of mine this week here in Michigan.
I'd LOVE to do this class with you.
Love the red tulip!
I love hibiscus flowers!
Favorite is whichever one I look at for however long I look. I used to say Lily of the Valley but since moving to Florida I haven't seen one in 50 years. I can almost remember their delightful fragrance.
Now that I've finally managed to keep some alive in my garden, I'm in love with pansies. Thanks for the chance to win a place in your class.
What a lovely thing to wake up to. This and daffodils.
It definitely has to be the Hydrangea! They are so full of life and color! Would love to take this class and learn from you again! I'll keep my fingers crossed!!!

Sweet Peas, Pansy, Peony, anything pink, ...! Well I love flowers!
Your work is amazing and I'm impressed how you keep coming up with fresh ideas. I look forward to your blog and love the inspiration at the start of my day. I often encourage my blog readers to visit yours. My favorite flower is the stargazer lily, isn't that a wonderful name? I don't just like them for their looks, which are spectacular, but their scent is out of this world. It would be a great honor to be chosen for your class. Thank you.
My favorites are poppies and violets!
my favorite flower is a dandelion
My favorite flower is the Peony. I wish I could plant them everywhere! This class would be so fun to win!
Definitely the tulip!

Not sure my last comment was published. I have an everlasting love for tulips and daffodils. Thank you for this. :)
Have a nice day.
Hydrangeas appeal to my every sense. Oh, how I wish I could grow them but I live in the high desert where flowers are impossible to grow and the wild ones are few and far between. I envy you girls who live in more hospitable climates.
My favorite flowers are the ones that are currently in bloom. When it's peony time, I love peonies. When it's daylily time, it's my favorite. When it's sunflower time, I can't get enough of them. Yep, I love them all.
I never met a flower that I did not like, however one of my favorite is the hydrangea.
Always my favorite flower is the SNAPDRAGON! Thanks so much for offering this contest.
I love tulips and irises !
I adore the summery simplicity of daisies… C xo

Hi Alisa, thanks for the chance of winning! My favorite flower is the blue and purple hydrangea - so, so dreamy!!...
I love all the beautiful colors - and looseness of watercolor! Ranunculus are my favorite!!!
Daisies! Definitely daisies! Wore a wreath of them in my hair when I got married 44 years ago. Well my mother insisted I put some roses in there also to make it more "proper" but daisies were all I needed!
Peonies! This class looks wonderful!
Peonies! This class looks wonderful!
Ooooh I love so any flowers but my favorite is the coneflower. My husband can never remember the name of them so he just calls them upside down daisies.
I love roses.
My favorite flower is probably a peony! But I love tulips and magnolias.

Love it!!!
Peony!

Thank you for the chance to win a free spot in your class. It's very difficult to choose just one flower, but I love hydrangeas and fuchsias (aka princess earrings... of course I've used them frequently) since I was a child, as they were the two types flowers my grandmother had the most in her backyard... they always bring me happy memories. However, I didn't know there was such flower as peony, because I had never seen those in my country (Portugal). I know now that it is possible to find them in good (usually meaning expensive) florists for a brief period of time in the year. It is an extremely beautiful flower and I love it, although I'd never felt one in my hands. You take extraordinary photos of those flowers, and flowers in general... and photos in general :), that makes me wish to have a backyard and live in the countryside (in fact I wish it for a long time :)).
Gah! Picking a favorite flower is liking picking a favorite friend! Really, almost impossible! But, since it IS flowers and not friends, I would have to say HOLLYHOCKS (because my grandmother grew them in her garden and today I have a neighbor that grows them each year) or HYDRANGEAS (because how can you not love a bloomy, downy, multi-colored beauty that even dries well, too?!)
I love your paintings! Thanks for the opportunity!
Ooooh this class looks really wonderful! My very favorite flower is the tulip - so graceful and elegant!
I don't think I can choose a favorite flower. Each one has such interesting features!
I love blue/purple hydrangeas. I wanted to use them in my wedding bouquet, but they were out of season. My cousin looked everywhere and finally found some and they were absolutely beautiful. I now have several bushes of them in my backyard that I photograph all summer long.
I first came across your work in 2010 when you had a tutorial on painted pumpkins. I love your work and you are so inspiring :-)
My favourite flower is Ranunculus
I first came across your beautiful work in 2010 with your painted pumpkins. I love your work, it so inspiring :-)
My favourite flower is Ranunculus
My favorite flower would probably be roses, though it's hard to decide :) thank you so much for the chance to win this!
A three way tie with peonies, poppies, and ranunculus. Mmmmmmm...
Oh boy....how can I choose just one favorite? I would say lavender because it holds so many special qualities.
oh goodness...how to pick just one...the orange poppy is probably my heart. The whimsical beauty of a flower that opens for the sun, always captured me as a child. but the unfurled magic of peonies, and the quickness in which they dissolve...is just as magical to me.
i love poppies among many others.
Right this minute, my favorite flower is the hydrangea! I have six giant ones blooming in my "new to me old house"! Bright white to bright blue! Beautiful! Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent!
I'm super excited about this class! My fav is Iris (my mom's name too!) and sunflowers because they are easy for me to paint over and over again!
Love your flowers! One of my favorite flowers is the iris.
Yarrow … which is cheating I think because the flower head looks like it's made up of many small flowers
My all-time favorite is the daffodil - it's so cheery and happy and often overlooked.
Lately, I've been loving dinner plate dahlias and chrysanthemums :D
My favorite flowers are pink peonies. Thanks!
My favorite type of flower is wildflowers, which is totally a cheating answer because there are thousands of varieties, but I simply can't pick just one!
My favorite flower is nasturtium. They look great in salads and add a bit of peppery taste!
Orchids every time
I love peonies!
My favorite flower is the rose!!! Beautiful watercolour flowers I hope to win a spot in this beautiful class!!
I better love fragrant lavender...I grow 150 plants in a 40-foot labyrinth! Of course they're not really exciting to paint, at least for this new watercolor artist. So I thought I'd choose a second favorite, the red poppy. It looks striking when appearing in the middle of a lavender field. And who could argue about the sunflower...ooops, I know, you said "favorite flower. not flowers! Love your loose style when painting flowers. It's charming.
I am anxiously awaiting the time when I can take one of your classes. I'm sure it will be amazing. My favorite flower is the state flower of Texas....the yellow rose...not only is it gorgeous but it also has a fabulous smell. I sincerely hope I am one of the lucky five. Linda Caldwell
I love Irises!
Thank you for the chance to win the class, my favourite flower is also the Peony, I have a pink and white one in the garden,
but unfortunately with all the rain we are getting, their lives are short lived.

My favorite flower is the ranunculus!
My favorite flower is the Iris.....but having done sumi-e painting many years ago, I developed a fondness for Wisteria and plum blossoms.
Definitely English roses and wildflowers. After a super busy year so far I've been looking for an alternative creative outlet and your class would be ideal!
I love the vibrant colors in your flowers and my favorite flowers are Peonies.
It's a tie between lilacs and roses. They both have such beautiful fragrances.
My favorite flower is a spider mum! Your class would be a great jump start for me and getting back into a sketchbook routine for summer! Thanks!
Picking a favorite flower is as difficult as picking a favorite book! So I will just say orchids because there are such a variety of them.
I love snapdragons. Reminds me of my grandmother who grew them and would pinch them so they would open like a dragon's mouth :)
I tried to post twice but couldnt...so here goes one last time.

My favorite flower is the tiger lily! I love anything orange and these flowers are such a beautiful orange color. Thanks so much for the giveaways.
Pansies, daisies, lilacs, sunflowers,and more, I love them all.
I would have to choose orchids for their stunning visual beauty, as well as roses and lavender for their lovely aroma! Thanks for such a great giveaway!
Peonies!
My favourite flowers would have to be sunflowers. They bring a smile to my face and a warm feeling in my heart.
Summer is just getting started here on the east coast of Canada and the peonies are blooming! That's my favorite blossom. I have enjoyed your blog for many years and was delighted to listen to your podcast with Abby Glassenburg. Thanks for sharing your insights into making a living with your art.
Strelitzia - Bird of Paradise, love the exotics, and I grow them in my garden!
I love hydrangeas. All colors!! And I would love the opportunity to take one of your classes. Thanks for the giveaway!

Beautiful class. My favourite flowers are gerbera daisies.
This is really difficult as I love all flowers. If I have to pick just one it would be the english bluebell- I love to see a carpet of them in the woodland in Spring. It makes me feel like the woods are waking up!
omgosh, to pick just one favorite flower? Impossible! Ok,ok...Lavender. No wait...Hydrangeas. But you can't forget about golden Sunflowers! And what about lush spiky russian salvia? or lilacs? Who can leave out cornflowers or asters? Ok, just about any flower that's blue/purple in hue. But you need the white roses and the pink geraniums to set them off against each other. And not to forget euphorbia, those look quite cool. Ok, ok, got it now....it's peonies. No wait, it's zinnias and dahlias, they're so sweet. No, no, no, it's orchids, they are magnificent. That's it! that's my choice. Orchids! or maybe Christmas cactus in bloom. No....Amaryllis in bloom. sigh. you choose, I certainly can't.
Tulips are my favorites
Wisteria speaks to me, with thwir colour and their subtle scent
Peonies!
My favorite flower is the Gerber daisy.
I love many but roses would be my top fav.
