  • Art and artist inspiration with illustration, drawing, watercolour and gouache painting.
    In this video, I talk about the book "Print & Pattern Nature" , Bowie Style, and how it inspires me to create new art palettes and illustrative mark making. I show my progress with my oracle deck and the art journal page that will adorn the back of each of my 71 art oracle deck cards. I do a watercolour and gouache landscape background (underpainting of sorts), using colours on Scotties, House and Home tissue box.
    theoceanpaper....
    Note: Watercolour palettes from www.theoceanpaper.com and gouache from Stoneground Paint Co. Sketchbook is Artist Loft Recycled paper coil book , 60lb paper, and art journal is Strathmore, 140lb paper journal.

    Hi Alison, you have given me so many new ideas to use in my art, thank you for sharing so much of your self, your inspirations and beliefs. I hope you have huge success with your upcoming oracle deck, please keep updating us on progress. I have been inspired to create a deck of my own and it seems daunting but your updates are a great help and motivation 😊

    • @allisondawrant
      @allisondawrant  Рік тому +1

      thanks Chris! Yes, the oracle deck is one of the largest art projects I've ever worked on....with the greatest learning curve. But it will be the most rewarding, I believe.... reach out anytime if I can help at all. I took some awesome classes, but they were investments and you need to feel "ready" for them. :)

    Hello Allison ✨ I absolutely love your art poetry style. I'm so glad I found your channel. You are so inspiring. UA-cam recommended you to me a week ago due to me following Laura Horn Art✨ I have been watching your series of videos and am enjoying your process of art making. Thank you so much for sharing your work. I am finding my artistic voice and learning from you has been so helpful ✨

    This reminds me of Angela Fehr in so many ways.

    • @allisondawrant
      @allisondawrant  Рік тому +2

      what a beautiful compliment- Angela and I corresponded years ago as I'd taken one of her classes, and we bonded as she has family here in Calgary, where I live. I didn't realized she's on UA-cam and just subscribed! I adore her teaching style and I see more realism in her watercolour art compared to mine- but would love to hear more of how my art/teaching style reminds you of hers. I've also been told my work reminds people of Andrea Soos- and I love her style! Also Canadian!

    What a gorgeous palette... again. Love all the ways you find inspiration. 🧡 I am learning so much about mark making from watching you and listening to what you have to say. Quiet is such a gorgeous painting (I remember when you posted it in your IG stories) and I love the story behind the etched flowers I admire. I am learning a lot about how you can fix elements that are initially "happy accidents". I just changed some marks I didn't like into a flower as I watched, and love the way it turned out. Your videos are amazing resources. Thank you!
