In this video, I start by picking a card from my Art Poetry card deck, and share a few decks by artist Cathy Nichols. I show you what art I've been working on since my last video, and an example is the Protea theme where we drew proteas on paper, and painted them with watercolour.
I show you some shadow box style frames from Micheals Canada that I like to use to frame some of my artwork or giclee prints on paper.

    Hi 👋 Alison, just catching up on your video. I have your art poetry deck, which i absolutely love, btw 🩷. I have learnt a technique of shuffling that really works for me. I have very petite hands, my daughter is 11 yrs old and her hands are almost as big as mine 😊. So, instead of holding the deck like a normal pack of cards, horizontally and shuffling them because i can't grab the edges very comfortably like this or if i manage to it's such a stretch because it's too wide for me, i hold them on the sides so they're vertical orientation and then shuffle like normal but from the vertical aspect. It's hard to describe, but i hope this makes sense. Thank you for showing us Cathy's deck also. They are just as beautiful. I love waching your videos. It's so relaxing, my beagle is laid next to me completely chilling out to your voice.

    hi Allison, I really enjoy your humble, authentic, and deeply sensitive deportment. Your watercolor paintings are really beautiful and remind me of imprints of human souls that are in deep reflection, or gratitude but in an overall peaceful and positive space. If I could see souls or auras, I imagine them resembling something very similar to your work. I have the same thumbs as you, only mine are alot more intense in the width and girth, I have only seen one other person with the 'mysterious' toe thumbs! thank you for sharing your process and work!

    I have a question about the framing of the watercolor you showed. When you take it to a gallery do you put the glass back into the frame? My gallery is so picky, it requires you always to have wire across the back and always glass over the painting no hooks on the back. Just wondering. I like those frames so much. Will check at our Michael's tomorrow.Thanks.

    • @allisondawrant
      @allisondawrant 14 дней назад

      Yes, same requirements with the gallery I was with… for an upcoming show, they require “s “ hooks, so I use epoxy glue and add my own hooks with wire backing over the cheaper back board. I can send you a pic of that helps… feel free to email me

      you can seal the watercolour collage paper first with Dorland's cold wax medium . (and then use the adhesive just on the underside).
