How I mount my watercolour paper to wood panel (no talking).
In this unedited, super short video, I demonstrate how I mount, or also known as, "glue" with matte medium, my watercolour paper art to wood panel. I love this process as it takes 15 minutes or less and is one small thing I can do for my art process during a busy day.
After mounting your art -remember to flatten your art with books, facedown, on a clean, dry and flat surface. 24 hours is ideal.
Once dry, you can use an craft knife to trim around the edges. I finish my art with a wax medium such as Dorland's Wax.
Materials used:
Painting on 140 lb watercolour paper
Cradled Wood panel (11 x14", 1.5" deep), edges were pre-painted.
Deserres
www.deserres.ca/products/wood-panel?width=11inch
(note- these cradled panels come in different widths).
Liquetex matte gel medium

Gloves
Parchment Paper (any paper will do that is clean and protective)
Brayer (optional)

    I'm ready to invest in more expensive, sheer watercolors...either tubes or palettes. Which brand do you recommend?

    • @allisondawrant
      @allisondawrant 31 хвилина тому

      It really depends on your budget and what type of watercolour properties you have enjoyed so far... lots of variables. I personally like Beam paints, and the Stoneground Paint Co. I'm biased as they are Canadian (Beam is all non toxic, and plastic free, family run, indigenous owned/woman owned). Stoneground has beautiful effects... They both have excellent customer service. I would recommend checking out brands that have reviews on youtube... Again, this is just my opinion based on my own experience and limited professional watercolour experience.

    Hi Aliison. Why and how do you decide if a watercolor painting needs a touch up w/ acrylic?

    • @allisondawrant
      @allisondawrant 28 хвилин тому

      Through my experience of painting daily and putting in a ton of hours and time in finding my "art styles"... I just "know" when and how to finisih them. Almost like a puzzle ... I know what piece is missing when it comes to how I want my art to look and feel. Is that what you mean? Or are you referring to art prints that I am considering "embellishing"? thanks Libby!

    Of course I’d buy some stickers. I love them❣️. And I’d love to have some of yours. I’ve admired your work for a long time. Is the tariff situation going to affect small businesses❓❓❓. I’d asked another Canadian company I buy from (stickers❗️) and I also buy Beam Paints. I’d hate for it to affect you. I’m so ashamed ( and scared and angry at what’s going on here‼️. U. S. A). I think the other countries realize we’ve got a bunch of power hungry nutz trying to ruin the country. Enough of that❣️❣️

    Love and watch each video, but completely understand taking breaks. Your daily practice and painting multiples has always inspired me. I also began painting the backgrounds of watercolors and then going back to them like you. Oh, do you spray all your watercolors w/ Spectra Fix even if framing under glass. I do spray anything with oil pastels which I just revisited.

    • @allisondawrant
      @allisondawrant 3 дні тому

      Thanks Libby. I only tend to spray with Spectrafix if I plan to finish the work with wax. Sometimes it can leave a slight sheen of spray in certain areas if the work isn't highly textured or colourful. For example- I'm careful when I use spectrafix over a work with a lot of white/blank space.

    I’m binging your videos. This is one I can definitely try 🎉 from bed with my little sketchbook and pallet. My problem is I always feel like I need to buy all the wonderful supplies online artists have. My hubby will divorce me if I don’t stop 😂. So glad you used an angle brush on this one. I have one and just yesterday was wondering how to use it in my play. 🎉

      haha. funny about the art supply and hubby comment! I used to tell my husband "I had a date with Michael today"... as I would so often go to Michael's craft store when I started painting! Hopefully I help inspire you to use what you have... glad you have the angle brush!! It's so fun.

    Hi, Allison. I’m brand new to your channel. I paint from bed due to chronic pain. It’s a bit messy 😂 but it helps me on the days I can do it. Your words at the end blessed my heart. I want so badly to be able to paint sitting up, but for now, God has me lying on my side. And I still can manage with watercolor pencils, markers, tiny watercolor pallets, etc in small sketchbooks. Anyway, enough. But thank you and I’m so happy to find your channel. ❤🙏

      Oh, I can't imagine how hard that must be. Chronic pain is just all encompassing... Thank you for taking the time to write and encourage me. I hope you find much distraction and joy in creating "freely" due to your limitations. xx

    Love seeing all your techniques and envy how much you accomplish in a day or two. I'm ready to spend and go into more expensive professional paints...been using mostly Kuertaki (?) and Korambi (sp?) since they have a gouache quality and don't get that transparency you get in your art poetry paintings. Would you recommend Bean paints or Ocean Paper as a starting place?

      Hi Libby, I love Beam paints and they are a great investment with excellent properties and customer service. I will be using Rosa gallery, Ukrainian Watercolours soon. They have a good price point for quality, in my opinion. You may want to check out some reviews on here such as ua-cam.com/video/ILub-1KZZ-A/v-deo.html . There are wonderful reviews on Kuretake paints too....

    Really enjoy your videos. I would love to see the process of how you created the piece you put on the cradle panel, from start to finish!
