Love the painting and the video! Would you consider making a video about the process of planning your paintings and how you incorporate the ideas of color and light into your pieces?

[@allisonaletha]

Aww thank you!! I’ve actually made a couple videos on my planning process for paintings (there’s one titled “Chaos to Creation: How I plan my illustrations) if you’re interested in checking it out 💛💛💛

[@lidiakrajewskaart]

I love how you’ve created your illustration inspired by your other creative activity! It turned out so beautiful and cute 😍 I walk my dog at least twice a day and a few years back I’d say the views on our walks are boring. But since getting to know more about colour and light through James Gurney’s book, I absolutely love observing how the same place changes with different time of day / year / different weather. A light coming through leaves can make my day and I always find something interesting or beautiful on our walks. So those topics are very close to my heart 😊

[@allisonaletha]

Aww thank you so much!! It's AMAZING how much learning about color can change the way we see things out in nature. It gives us a whole new appreciation for the world around us!! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with me 💛

Im confused about the halftone light (the space where light transitions to shadow )pls elaborate mam?

[@simplycj899]

Which brushes can you recommend, not very expensive ones but good quality?

[@allisonaletha]

I love Princeton brushes!! They're fairly good quality, and they're not too expensive. I think I have links to a view in this video's description for specifics! 💛

[@victoriasnyder307]

What tape do u use to define areas and prevent bleeding?!

[@allisonaletha]

I use washi tape! 💛

[@AlishaArlene]

Did you go to college or take classes for art?

[@allisonaletha]

Nope, college wasn't the right path for me, but I have taken some art classes!! Schoolism has a lot of really great ones! 💛
