Because I needed to paint and start art journaling again....

  • I recorded this video as I really wanted to paint, relax, and get back into the swing of things with videoing... And find new inspiration in the moment, in hopes my viewers may also find relaxation or inspiration with my video in a small way.
    I pull a card from my oracle deck ("Art Poetry" card deck), and talk about the card and art and words and how it inspires me. I talk about art journaling and showed a few mixed media journals that I've started ,and completed and we do a few activities together by pulling a colour palette from a fashion magazine page, for new insights.

    Watercolours:
    Beam Paints: Canadian family owned company: www.beampaints...
    Stoneground Paint Co: SK company, I use their watercolours and gouache.
    Mozart watercolours
    Ocean Paper: "Around the World" large white palette, and other discontinued palettes from Kauai: Customer service can be challenging as they move their studio from Kauai to another Island. (I waited 3 mos to get my paints). But I like their quality of paint.
    Watercolour brush : Any round brush is what I use. I tend to like larger round Princeton brushes in size 12.
    Art Journals: I recommend Canson XL or any 140lb cold press watercolour paper in your budget. 90 lbs is good too.
    Neo colour Caran d'ache wax crayons
    Neo colour Caran d'ache oil pastels
    Any watersoluble pencils and crayons will do.

    I used to be plagued by cracked skin until I stopped consuming gluten. I hope you find what is causing it for you. Merry Christmas and a joyful art new year. Diane x

      how interesting, as I have a severe gluten sensitivity…. I avoid it whenever I can. thanks for your insights., and Merry Christmas to you and yours too, Diane.

      @@allisondawrant thanks Allison, Merry Christmas to you and your family also. Maybe you could try (after Xmas!) eliminating gluten totally for a while. It might just work. I stopped eating gluten myself because of colic, palpitations, panic attacks and other unpleasant symptoms and realised suddenly that the cracked fingers were not happening any more!! I used to go to bed with cotton gloves and layers of thick cream but nothing worked. I’ve never heard anyone link gluten with dryness but I’m sure it worked for me!! Hugs xxx

    I like the way how you use a picture for inspiration colors. All my water color paintings are landscape so recently I started doing some abstract water color paintings and it is very relaxing.

    Really like your style, I know this isn’t something your normally do but would you consider doing a review and swatch of ocean paper watercolors palette as I’m considering it but in Australia it’s over $700 and there’s nothing online really about them

    • @allisondawrant
      @allisondawrant  8 місяців тому

      Yes, I'll swatch the colours out this evening (Dec 27) and will do a video within the next month at latest. Feel free to reach out by email too at addawrant@gmail.com . Thanks Jess

      Do a lot of research before purchasing. I just read a comment on another video from someone who ordered and never received their order, and was just about to contact their bank. It was for over $200 worth of paint products.
      They said that comments were shut off on social media, and that they didn’t respond to phone calls or email communications.

      @@intuitiveinspiredart4366 that’s really poor I hear the excuse been thrown around that they were or are moving islands, but I had communication trouble well before that,and if they’re going to charge the priceless they do then I expect exceptional customer service. And isn’t it just obvious if your too busy, need or take a break/holiday or your moving just close the store for a bit. That has to be a way better option than getting the bad reputation they’ve gotten currently. Or they could do limited drops, then they’d only take on what they could handle

      I just ordered a bunch of Stoneground Paint Co paint from THE PAINT SPOT. The exchange is very good for US customers right now, and if you sign up for their newsletter/website you get 20% off your first order. I took advantage of both of these things BIG TIME.

      I believe certain vitamin deficiencies can contribute to skin dryness. I’m pretty sure omega-3 it’s supposed to help. I have struggled with cracked hands in the past. I recommend the O’Keefes working hands as well. There are other ones that are great too. But I do think O’Keefes is excellent. Drinking lots of waterAnd making sure you’re hydrated definitely makes a difference. I read somewhere that like chapped lips is really just a sign of dehydration.
