Allison, the struggle with perfectionism and an all or nothing mindset is an ongoing battle for me. It is such a killer of creativity so I will keep fighting against both! I so appreciated seeing the Beam paints swatched like this. I bought myself a small selection that arrived before Christmas and I have only just swatched them and am anxious to start playing with them. I definitely want to add more colours over time and I will go back to this video again and again for reference. Problem is that now I want them all. 😂
I find such inspiration in your videos, Allison. I ordered your Oracle Deck and am so looking forward to having them to work with. I often play your videos in the background to listen to your message and then pull out my paper and paints while watching a second time. Thank you so much. ❤
Thanks for your support both on here, and also for ordering my Art Poetry deck, Roseanne. I too, love to listen to artist videos in the background when I'm working on a project or cleaning or just too tired to paint. I'm so happy to hear you don't mind doing the same with mine:) Much gratitude!
Thank you so much! I get so excited about ideas and if I don't act on them quickly, they vanish! ha. It's true what is said about creativity- the more you tap into it, the more you have and it keeps flowing!
The shimmer watercolor paper is from Paul Rubens. I ordered a couple packages of it from Amazon (and I am in Canada also). It's lovely to work on . I wanted to let you know that I received my Oracle cards today and I am excited to start using them. Thank you for shipping them out so quickly. ♥
Oh, thanks for the information on the shimmer watercolour paper. Good to know. I found it was nice to use while I was swatching the colours onto it during the video. Wow- that was a fast arrival of your Art Poetry card deck! So happy to hear. Thanks for your support and letting me know.
Hi Allison, happy new year. I have suffered for many years with my back. Have you heard of Wave stools, well worth looking into,helped me paint without to much pain . Loving the beam paints, so tempting x
Thank you for the shout out, you're so swwet. Patti doesn't sell them I do through my blog Scrapstobeautybyzandra So creative to swatch on the pallete love that idea. 😊
Of course! thanks for the beautiful gifts. Those watercolours are amazing. How can people find your blog? can you link it here? and I"ll copy it to the description. xx
I’m taking a portrait class by Wendy Brightbill. That gorgeous Matter of Art has similar energy to what she is teaching. You two would be an awesome collab!!! ❤
I watched the video in normal speed, sound on & watched the entire video because I love swatching & I also love watching people swatch❣️❣️
Love that people enjoy "watching", "swatching"!
I live on Manitoulin Island myself, Anong Beam is a beautiful lady and an awesome artist as is her father and mother.
thanks for sharing this , Sharon

Oh, I have not heard of a wave stool, but really appreciate your comment and will look into it. Anything to help with ergonomics! Thanks so much.
