Artist watercolour style...Art Poetry

- I start by randomly choosing a card from my newly published "Art Poetry" deck. The focus of this video was mostly on painting intuitive abstract watercolour backgrounds. Once the background are dry , that is a great opportunity for mark-making overtop with watersoluble and non watersoluble art supplies. I show some of my techniques that I love to use when I paint my Art Poetry style paintings.

Those cards, what a beautiful creation. You must feel very proud of yourself.
I am proud of this project and myself as it was a lot of time and energy. thanks 😌❤️
Watercolor backgrounds? More like "Wonderful painting and information that abounds!" 👍
Thank you! That’s so kind!
I was thinking the same! Those aren’t backgrounds! They’re magnificent fine art paintings! ❤
What a sensitive, kind soul you are! Canadians are thought to be very good humans. Congratulations on your art and beautiful art poetry cards.
Thank you so much!
Allison, you and your art are absolutely beautiful and amazing. Congratulations on publishing the Deck of Cards, it's genious!
Thank you so much!
Hi there. Just want to share what I know- Sharpies fade. They’re not archival. My brother signed his abstracts with sharpies and unfortunately passed away. People have contacted me and said his signature is slowly disappearing. I’ve had to go back and paint his signature with acrylic. I highly recommend the Prismacolor Premier Illustration Marker set which has sizes that range from 005 up to 8, five pens in a set, way more durable than the Microns. As long as you give it just a few minutes to dry, you can watercolor or whatever. Really great pens. Love your work. ♥️♥️♥️
Thankyou for sharing. I’ll check out the marker set. I’m deeply sorry for your loss.. I appreciate you taking the time to write and encourage me.❤️
@@allisondawrant Of course! We artists must all stick together! 🥰 Thank you for your kind and heartfelt words. ❤️
How beautiful. WOW!!...I'm from Lethbridge but living in the USA now...I just found your channel and I'm so excited to follow you!
Awesome! Thank you!
I spent the evening enjoying your creativity, thank you very much for the beauty, inspiration, lightness and freedom!😍🙏🏻💫
My pleasure 😊
I just pulled your card Remember your why ✨🫶I've been dipping back into watercolor and trying out your art poetry style. I love when the colors blend into each other. I've been catching up and enjoying your recent videos ✨
Wonderful! I often need to reflect back on that card myself. it’s so easy to get side tracked!
I love your work and I love that you embrace watermarks in your art and that your colors run together. That's why I love watercolor. Thanks for showing us how you do this.
Thank you so much!
Hello Allison! I love your videos❤️🙌🏻 your Art is FABULOUS!
Thank you so much!
I love what you called it art poetry that is so fitting thank you. I need art in my life as well and I have been watching you for a while, but this really caught my eye. It’s beautiful.
Thanks Lisa
Always looking forward for your videos. Thank you for sharing with us.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching and your comment
🎉🎉🎉Super, wow. ❤❤❤
Thank you! Cheers!
I am a Watercolor novice just have started in the last four years. I do a lot of small greeting cards mostly floral, but I love the emotion you put into these little gems. Thank you for sharing.❤️
Thankyou so much
I love your inspiration. I originally wanted to do poetry with my art a long time ago and then fell by the way. Thank you for your video.❤🙏
Go for it! Thanks for your encouragement
I love your art! Your style resonates with me. Thank you for sharing❤
Thank you so much!
I just got your video in my feed and I paint semi realistic pictures, however, I love your art as well. You describe it as abstract, I describe it as joyful!! It looks so joyful to me, and I am so happy that you came into my feed!!
Wow, thank you! I’m glad I came into your feed too! Thanks for taking the time to write.
Oh my gosh! I LOVE your style. I was just telling my husband that was going to copy artist to improve my skills….kind of like art school 30 years ago. I haven’t really practiced much in that time period. I will copy you, as you are a great. Looking to find my art voice again! Thank you so much for speaking to my heart!💕. Edit: I will TRY to copy your work 😄
I have just discovered you and subscribed. I am really drawn to your style and process - you are very inspirational. I'm a newbie to watercolour but really looking forward to self expression through art. Love from Tasmania
Thankyou.! So excited to have you.
TFS! I just found your channel and love how you paint. I so want to learn how to paint with watercolours. New subbie from Grimshaw, Alberta (born and raised in Montreal, Quebec and now living in Alberta since December 2015).
Welcome! Ya, another Canadian (Albertan!)
Oh my gosh, I also love the paper that I clean my brush with, often better than my painting. I feel like they are more creative and loose.
I totally agree!
What a stunning, beautiful idea!! Congratulations on your publication!
Thank you so much!
Oh, Alison...so happy to have come across your lovely watercolor video. How beautiful & unique. You have inspired me since I haven't painted in quite some time.
Love abstract painting, and you have given me inspiration this evening. I will watch your videos. Thank you for your time in sharing your gorgeous paintings! 😘❤️🎨
Thank you so much! I appreciate you reaching out.
Lovely creations. Thank you.🥰
You’re welcome 😊
Lots of great info in this video! My first time viewing one of your videos.
Welcome aboard!
I found your videos just now. I like your art, the colours you use.
Thank you so much 😀
Glorious! Thank you so much, Allison. 😃
Glad you enjoyed it!
Sister Allison your Art Poetry is a beautiful way to inspire Artists, art enthusiast congratulations sister your work resonate to one dear. Thank you for sharing your Art process. Lots of love dear🎉
Thank you so much 😀
@@allisondawrant🎉 Thank you kindly sis🥰
Another wonderful video. We’re getting spoiled lately ;) The variety in everything you share really inspires my own creativity. I can only agree with all the other comments and compliments.
Just a few days ago I received your card deck. It arrived quite quickly in the Netherlands, but funny enough it took a while to cover the last 150 km to my house. But it did and I am very happy with it. So many cards with beautiful little artworks and messages that resonate with me. I’ve already drawn a few cards and they were very spot on.
Regularly hearing you talk about the deck also gives it more meaning to me unlike buying a random deck with no background information.
And thank you so much for the botanicals you added, I really appreciate that.
I still think it’s special that despite the enormous distance we can all connect with each other through videos and the mail. To have seen you paint the botanicals which I then receive in the mail.
So thank you again Allison for sharing your beautiful art and journey with us.
Thankyou for taking the time to write me and support me , Alice. I appreciate you. love to the Netherlands.
No one will give you time … you have to take it! Those words were said to me when I started my art practice 30 years ago … I loved your video, thank you ❤
Just found you and purchased the art deck and one of your paintings 💜💜 🎈love your style 🎈makes me smile 😊
Yay! Thank you!
Omg! The universe has aligned today! ❤I just found your beautiful channel. I already LOVE your personality and your art combined with poetry is my passion. I am in love with your art. Thank you SO much for making these videos.
Welcome!! Thanks for commenting and encouraging me.
I so enjoy your random style
Thanks Susan
Thank you so much, your work is so beautiful, natural … inspiring 😊
Thank you so much!
So many lovely ideas for repurposing practice pieces and I had never heard about sealing watercolour works!
Glad it was helpful!
Your work is beautiful and inspiring love the idea of art poetry thank you for inspiring me
You are so welcome
So inspiring!!!! From Russia with love!!!!
Thankyou
Thank you, Allison, for this video. I relate to a variety of artistic styles, but rarely to the artist themself. All of your messages were ones I needed during a sleepless night. Fellow sensitive here ;)
Love and light to you💜
You are so welcome! Thanks for your encouragement Jeannine ❤️
Beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow! I'm SO glad I came across this video - full of inspiring beauty and I also appreciate you sharing so many influences and resources!
You are so welcome!
💚
I’ve just got back to watercolor and learning to sketch. I’ve done a bit of mixed media but love how you are doing it with watercolor. Thank you for sharing your process it is all very inspirational and I see how it can be healing ❤
Thankyou
I'm so glad to see this. You've put a term to express my feelings " color craving " wow! 😊
Thanks. I first heard the term from artist Flora Bowley, intuitive artist from Portland.
@@allisondawrant you truly inspired me today and I did one of my best abstracts. I'm browsing your videos and I cracked up when you showed how you're loving brown paper bags and I thought hmm packing your lunch for your color craving! 😏
Wow! These are really gorgeous! Thank you so much for sharing! I'm so happy I came across your channel. I love all of your colors and the ability to paint loose.❤
Thank you so much!
Always amaze me. Love your art. Keep being awesome.
Thank you so much 😀
@@allisondawrant very welcone
I couldn’t agree more about needing to paint - I’ve just had a break of a month to move House and it was so great to open my sketchbook again with a new view… Really enjoyed this video, and seeing your lovely work, thank you!
Thankyou so much, . Hope you settle soon in your new house.
Love it ❤❤❤
loving everything
Thankyou
Such a magical video. I really resonated with your words of wisdom and appreciate you sharing your art journey and experience. I will continue my own art journey mindfully and confidently ❤❤❤
Thankyou so much
Precioso 😍
Oh my Gosh! I exclaimed that outloud when you brought the painting off the wall to match the Art Poetry Deck card. The beauty and vibrancy of your original is stunning!! I love my Art Poetry Deck and hope you can, over time, show more of the originals. Of course they probably mostly sold long ago, love your works.
Thankyou so much - nice to see you on here.
beautiful!
Thank you!
Beautiful , beautiful work!!
Thank you! Cheers!
I just found your channel - this is my first video and you share SO much amazing information, thank you!!! I laughed when you said you're highly distractable - you're awesome! I just ordered your beautiful cards!!!❤

Have been telling everyone I want to do watercolors finger painting made me I think it would be very therapeutic
Bitte bleiben Sie gesund oder werden Sie es, ich höre ein bisschen Traurigkeit in Ihrer Stimme, sie sind eine wunderbare Künstlerin wunderbar, Kreativität ist die beste Therapie um zu entspannen ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤danke
Thankyou
I was so excited to see you had a video out today! Looking forward to more of your painting. Enjoyed it all. Waiting on my Opera Pink by Danielle Smith to show up from Blick. Also the Japanese watercolors, Art Noveau to come in also. An early Mother's Day gift to me along with some other items from Blick. You sold me on those paints. The Opera Pink looks amazing. I love Helen Wells also and polka dots too. 😊
Wonderful! Thanks Madelyn
You mentioned acrylic inks vs shellac inks - I'd love to learn more about that topic (what are they, how best to use one over the other, brand recommendations, etc). ❤️
Great suggestion! I don’t know a lot about the different properties, but will share what I learn.
Arches is my favorite brand of paper. The price is worth it to me. That was how I felt until I tried the Baohong Professional! It is literally exactly the same! I won't completely switch because the Professional line doesn't come in large full sheets and I am a huge painter, but if it did..........You HAVE to try it! But it has to be the Professional Artist's grade, NOT the one that says ACADEMY! I see alot of CZcamsrs doing the whole "Is Baohong like Arches" thing, but they bought the student grade which is no comparison at all of course, and it's frustrating!
Hi, thanks for sharing this useful info. I am not familiar with Baohong prof. But will check it out. It’s harder to get Arches here in Calgary, as I heard they were bought out by another company or something…
Wow just found your video and absolutely love your artwork so free and fresh I love it. New subscriber here. Absolutely ready to dig in deeper with your videos. New to watercolor and love this so much. So inspiring.
Thank you so much 😀
Omg! It's called art poetry. Words often come through me when I'm creating art and I write them on the back of my pieces. Love your style. I subscribed.
We are soul sisters thru art! Thanks for sharing and subscribing.

Hi Allison, I’m fairly new to your channel and love the whimsical style and colours you choose. I’ve completed a set of oracle cards and worked out the artwork for the backs but getting them printed and packaged here is Brisbane, Australia is soooo expensive. At this rate, each set will have to be sold at $26 a pack and that’s just to cover the printing costs. Did you go through a publishing company or self publish?
Hi Kelly, I did both and tried 3 different company’s (sample decks). I have a local printer (one person), and also have worked with others. Still exploring best options as it is $. I took a great course through @alenahennessey and she shares her printer via the course. Not all local companies will publish a box to go with the deck… so you’d have to consider that too. For example- one Calgary print company said I could print on “postcards” (about $1-2 cad to print per card), but then I would need to publish and print my box separately and assemble myself. Lots to consider!
Those colors are beautiful and vibrant! What brand of watercolor paints are those?
The link is in the description. It’s Canadian company, @beampaints. Http://www.beampaints.com
Yes- love their non toxic paints.
Allison, I’m so happy to have found you. Your art is beautifulll, it really inspires me. Thanyou so much
Thank you so much!
First time viewer.
Nice artwork
*Why* _71_ cards? (Why _71_ )
Edit - *fantastic* - you use _shells_ as your _paint wells_ by adding the paint inside the shells. :)
Keep sharing
That was a WOW video, thank you so much, will follow you.
Thankyou
Very nice palettes. Are you using Stonegraund watercolour paints? The colours are so vibrant!
They are Stoneground Paint Co gouache .(silver tin).
And yes, some are @stonegroundpaintco watercolours too.
which size posca white pen did you use is it micro fine or fine 0.5 or 1.3, love your work x
.7mm fine in bullet shape
If water soluble crayons , watercolors, etc. are used, do you need to seal with a fixative spray before the wax? Thanks.
Sometimes I do , but not always. I often experiment a bit …
Great video, love the 4” small canvas, did you pre treat the canvas? Live your art!
Yes I did. I used Daniel smith absorbent ground in titanium white .
😊
Fountain pens with permanent ink are very environmentally friendly
Just got one!
I learned from you about mixing colors on the palette. Now some lighter pans have messy darker shades. Is there a way to clean that or just let it go?
I let it go.
Do you have any classes or tutorials? Love your freedom of expression
Thankyou. I may do classes in future, but right now I’m solely sharing random inspiration here on my channel.
Just subscribe I love painting also 😊💗💜💚💖
Thankyou Alice
Well you have a new subscriber today - i love you style - and i can totally see how you are inspired by Laura Horn - i havent’ taken any of her classes yet - but i do love her videos and podcasts. Do you offer classes in Calgary? We travel to visit our kids in university and sometimes I’m looking for things to do when I’m there - so the guys can hang out together without me in their way! (I’m the step mom). I can’t wait to watch all of your videos and get to know more about what you share!
I’m opening a studio in the Fall and hope to offer classes. You can keep in the loop thru my website if you like.(newsletter )
I also live in Calgary. Can you recommend a local teacher here?
Also, I would become a patron if you have or are planning to have patreon.
Thankyou
Well those of us who ADHD. Or ADD we completely understand you. I feel you’re very organized. 😭, 30:57 30:58
Thankyou!
Where did you get the wooden backed frame from?
Destination Art, a local art store here in Calgary. The sell out fast, but it's basically a cradled wood panel in a floating frame , sold as one item. Hope that helps.
How can I purchase your deck?

I like the cards, but most of them missing value variety--light/dark
Have you thought of creating your own?
L'art parle de lui même, pas besoin d'explications.
I agree. Thanks for watching
❤thank you for sharing your art and inspiring others-just subbed to your channel!
Thanks for subbing!
