Marking making and transferred images over watercolour backgrounds.

[@sylviecullen8299]

Has certainly changed my life but as a pensioner and rather strapped for cash, I am so grateful for free tuitorials and yours are wonderful. They cover everything one needs to enjoy art even more❤😊

[@allisondawrant]

thank you. that means a lot.

[@trishs.4326]

Yes same 👍🙂🙏

[@trishs.4326]

I’m strapped for cash as I get so little . So I need to budget so tightly . But on the up side these restrictions help me to be more creativity to over come the financial obstacles within my art budget

[@kymcrowart7876]

I love these long videos! It’s so inspiring. It helps me with my art so much. Thank you so so much.

[@ginacunningham2861]

I always wander with my art ideas. My subconscious takes over and leads me onto things I hadn't envisaged. It's holistic. I think it's the way I'm wired.

[@allisondawrant]

i think it’s the way art and daily creativity is re- wiring me too! xx

[@dee-ellencook763]

I have been admiring that bracelet for a number of videos now! I say to myself OMG she is talented in jewelry making also! You gotta love this girl ❤❤❤

[@allisondawrant]

Thank you. A lot of time and energy has gone into both jewelry and painting... I appreciate your support so much.

[@patvalenzuela5105]

Thank you for sharing it was very informative. I found that I probably can do this and I will do it. I’ll watch you again. You have a nice way of communicating.😊

[@carose1029]

Love your philosophies on painting an art piece. I have learned not to be stalled in my work because of imperfection. Thank you for sharing your art process.

[@allisondawrant]

You are so welcome!

[@ginadangelo6388]

I just found you. Spent the whole day watching. I love the content. Thank you for sharing

[@allisondawrant]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@helenspedding-lowe5469]

I honestly can't believe how similarly you think to the way I think! Your thought process, your let's do this and see what happens is just taking the thoughts out if my head. I love your dynamic way of painting, I love your surprise when something unexpected happens, and I'm certainly going to adopt your way of transferring images, I hadn't thought of that before! Love your hummingbird narwhale! Thanks so much for your generosity with sharing your way of making art, I adore it!! Hugs from the UK xxxxx

[@allisondawrant]

Thank you so much!!

[@KS-wr4vv]

I know right! Her brain and I guess yours too works just like mine. That must be why I’m especially drawn to her videos. She says how she’s all over the place but I love that bc somehow it is still focused jumping around and I don’t. Get bored. Her impulsive decision making always turns out wonderful.I hope she will start offering classes bc her teaching style is so good

Hi Allison - I have just found your channel and I totally enjoyed your honesty and showing your vulnerability in your process. Thank you so much.

[@allisondawrant]

I needed to hear this today:) Thanks so much Gwen.

[@gwenanderson1914]

Aww - you're welcome Allison. I also ordered your amazing cards yesterday too. I can't wait to receive them. A little gift to me for Christmas from a fellow Canadian. :-) @@allisondawrant

[@KS-wr4vv]

This is such as fun video I like when u do lots of different things. I’m excited to take pictures of some of my drawings then transfer them over vs trying to redraw them. With pencil that I can’t see. I think I’ll enjoy this technique. I also recently started exploring 🦋. They are so beautiful to paint. Thanks again I m going back to watch the rest.

[@allisondawrant]

that's a great idea. I might have to try that too. thanks for your insights!

[@susankivley2134]

Loved this video and your journal page turned out amazing. Thank you for sharing.

This is a great posting as I have been trying to use transfer paper...good tutorial! Not to mention all the other beautiful content.

[@allisondawrant]

Glad it was helpful!

[@angelakapler2997]

Thank you for sharing! I really love watching the whole process. And you are sharing some of your individuality which gives us ideas and encourages us to be individuals in our process and that it’s okay to be different. I really enjoy all the possibilities. You teach in a great way.

[@allisondawrant]

Thank you so much!

[@cathydawe5944]

Loved this. It is so incredibly helpful to watch your process, whether it be painting an under layer or mark making and resolving a piece or different supplies and how to use them. I have just recently tried some stencils with acrylic paint on watercolour and want to try tracing so this was very inspiring. I would love to see how to incorporate stickers. Trying to figure out how to blend them in to the background effectively. Love your videos and your generosity to share so much of yourself. 💗

[@allisondawrant]

thanks so much Cathy. xx

[@alicecollins8241]

Love your work and yes please I would love to see you do a complete piece ❤

[@69Sugah]

Hello. This is the 1st time I've come across your channel. You have a new subscriber. I enjoy your storytelling and creative process. You make me want to really dedicate some time to my art journaling especially while dealing with some deep feelings that are difficult to write about. Thank you for deciding to post to KZbin and setting up your channel. You are an inspiration. ❤🥰

I need to thank you for mentioning in some of your videos about the dollarama studio gel pens…..I love them!

[@allisondawrant]

aren’t they great?! haha. hope they are still 12 cents CAD each… likely not..

[@kristin5407]

I just want to say you have truly inspired me to embrace my benign essential tremor in my work. I take propranolol which takes away the tremor when I need that for work or some social situations and it works great but I purposely don’t take it when I make art now! Blessings to you 🙏

[@allisondawrant]

thanks for sharing, and watching Kristin.

[@davescupper5789]

Hi Allison Those butterflies look fabulous with that background. Stunning work in your portfolio. Maybe you could draw the humming birds in a more typical situation for hummingbirds,hovering in front of a watercolour flower feeding on its nectar. You could do several on a mixed watercolour flower background I think you could make a nice piece of work. I really enjoyed this vid on a horrible wet sunday here in wales uk. Thankyou❤😊

[@allisondawrant]

Thanks for the beautiful insights, as always. sending some sunshine your way.

[@trishs.4326]

😊 love you too. You are my favourite. Thank you❤

[@LisaLewis-p6h]

Allison, I so admire your intuitive water color and doodle/ line work. I think that is the secret to your success. Your art poetry cards are stunning and inspirational ! When you shared your beautiful cobachon art bracelet I so want to ask you more info on the supply items if you dont mind sharing.. I make 1" square framed artwork necklaces to gift friends, family and sell on occasion and you dont have to worry about wrist dimensions/ fitting issues. They are so fun and interesting when you narrow down art snippets. I am very interested in making these cobachon bracelets I got the basics you shared but because I've never made them I just have some questions... is there any insight/tips you can give? Keep smiling and sharing...

[@allisondawrant]

Hi Lisa- thanks for the beautiful compliment! I'd be happy to guide you on the cabochon bracelets and what supplies I've used and I have made them into necklaces before too- which I agree with you- makes selling and fitting them so much easier! Feel free to email me anytime.

[@KS-wr4vv]

I’m so excited! So curious to see how you do your mark making. I just bought some colored transfer paper.

[@allisondawrant]

thankyou! I love this technique, and it really does train your eye and hand how to draw when you do this often enough.

[@jilljackson340]

really enjoying your videos. can you tell me the name of those lovely paints you use in the wooden box please.

Omg Oakley is adorable! You should paint him! He kinda looks like my cavachon bluez I named him after Rodrigues blue dog painting s . Hehe

Can you show us your cat series u we’re talking about w the fish stencil sometime .

[@allisondawrant]

yes, for sure. It under a collection on my website allisondawrant.com But I can show you some prints too.

[@KS-wr4vv]

Oh thanks I looked on your ig but not your website. I want to see how you abstract your cats. I love cats:)

[@Blahblahblahworlds]

May I ask where you got those stencils? They're really lovely. Love your work btw do much that I bought supplies to try and emulate the style. 😊

[@allisondawrant]

Thanks so much. I bought some "stencil girl " stencils from our local art store here in Calgary, at Kensington Art Supply. Hope you can find some you like.

Wunderschön. Wie heißen denn die Farben, die bereits auf dem Papier waren? Die Rottöne, das Rose, das Gelb???❤

[@allisondawrant]

If I didn’t add them in my description, unfortunately they are colours I mixed or had used so long ago that I don’t recall. thanks for watching ❤️

[@jessbutterfly1934]

If your paper is Pilling, you need to stop and work in another area until it is fully dry or blow dry it again until it is absolutely bone dry and then you can safely go back in and work on it as though it was brand-new all over again.although tackling the brain that keeps saying to you but I want to do it now is the hardest part. You know you should walk away, but your hands and eyes won’t let you
