  • In this video, I'll show you some of the supplies and marks I love to add over an already dried watercolour background. Towards the end of the video, I'll show you how I like to play with collage, in the beginning stages.

    I'm so happy I found your channel - I just love love love your work - we have similar styles and thought processes for sure - enjoy learning from you as well. I love using metallic gold, silver, bronze and rose gold in every piece I do. I'm trying to discover what marks I like. I too love dots and lines and rainbows. I'm an owl lover though and haven't yet figured out how to add a small tiny owl silhouette to them as one of my signature "things" - yet anyway and My favorite color is purple so I use a lot of various purples in my work. LOL!! I am a newbie to watercolor. I've junk journaled and done collage for years. I love this particular painting - does anyone else see in the top left corner a person? Side-view, nose, open mouth like they are singing with their hair sweeping down like long bangs and the rest in a bun in the back of the head? Love the shapes watercolors make on their own.

    I just started playing with watercolour and just love it. You are so inspiring. Just love, love your work and the colours you use as the sketching. Thank you so much. I’m 77 years old and this makes me feel when I was 8-9 years old. So much fun.

      If ever you're looking for fine-line pens that can cope with writing over watercolour (or even acrylic), I can recommend a set of 6 Pigma Microns, which you can pick up most places selling art/graphics supplies. The nibs are a range of widths, so can be nice for mark-making. 😊

Slow down and stop talking so much. We’re listening with our eyes. Of course tell us about the supplies and what effect they have. But the constant chatter interrupts my absorption of your technique.

      Well, I guess it's always a trade-off between taking us in close, or showing the full page at all times. I thought Allison did a good job of striking the balance tbh, and she regularly moved her page around depending on which area she was focusing on, so I did feel I got a sense of the whole page.
      I know what you mean though, about straining your neck to see something off-screen - I do that all the time! Our brain - specifically the visual cortex - plays tricks on us.😉

I hope to do a supply video soon but I tend to use a LOT of different ones and I mix and match in my practice:) I am not sponsored by anyone/ any company- So, the video content is a bit random. thanks for the nudge on supply details... I was at the local art store yesterday, and I tried a few of the non-metallic colours in the Uniball Signo pen, and I much prefer the metallics (gold and bronze). Not sure of the mm in size... but the coloured pens seem to be more narrow and harder to see. (I use them for going over dried watercolour and acrylic paint).
