    Hi Anna! I am interested in making one of these journals using watercolor paper. Do you leave the strings exposed like that on the outside of the journal?

    • @abstractsbyanna
      @abstractsbyanna Месяц назад

      That's great! Yes, I typically leave the strings exposed. But if you'd like to cover them, you could glue another panel of paper over the top of the spine or maybe use some contact paper. Just a couple of ideas. :) Enjoy the journal making!

    I love this little video..great for warming up. I love fall leaves and for the first time. I am getting ready to do a study adding falling fall leaves. Wow that was a mouthful. I love these ideas. You can also add lots of fall watercolor on the sheet and let it dry with a plastic bag and once its dry you can sketch out the fall leaves. Perfect video for Sunday first day of Fall. Thanks Maria

    • @abstractsbyanna
      @abstractsbyanna 2 месяца назад

      That's great! I totally agree about the calming and centering effect of putting watercolor to paper. And when you're painting intuitively, just guided by what catches your attention, you'd be surprised how quickly your inner artist comes out to play! Enjoy the exercise! :)

    Hi, Anna. I just stumbled upon your channel with this video, and I found it very helpful and inspiring (as someone who routinely churns out one watercolor disaster after another). Thank you for taking the time to share this cool idea. But now the tough decision: do I break out the watercolors immediately, or do I sit here and binge watch all your other videos first?. Wait... I'm supposed to be cleaning the basement today...

    • @abstractsbyanna
