HEALING my relationship with CREATIVITY (week 1: GROUND ZERO) // cozy mixed media art vlog
I’ll let you in on a little secret… since taking my art full time, my relationship with my creativity has changed. Passion for art turned to pressure, and I stopped loving the act of creating. In the beginning of July, I decided to go on a one-month journey to HEAL my relationship with my creativity. To let go of the pressure, to let go of my mindset, and to treat it as a stranger that I’d like to get to know as a friend.
Welcome to week one: GROUND ZERO.

    Hi there I'm an artist too. And I've mostly do watercolor paintings but recently decided to try out guache painting to switch ot up a bit. I'm trying to illustrate a picture I drew of a bear sitting on a stole in an old fashioned candy shop. I have my sketch all drawn out. And I was wondering if you have any suggestions on how I could fill the candy jars in the background. I have a gumball machine and it's looking good but I don't have a clue on how to paint such fine details for background subjects. So if you could send me some suggestions on how to paint them that would be great. Thanks again

    Do you find this paint better than gauche? It is more opaque? How does it flow vs gauche? How is the drying time compared to acrylic or gauche? I would love to try this for my children's illustrations. Always looking for colors that are opaque and yet soft. Do you understand what I mean?

    • @allisonaletha
      @allisonaletha 7 дней назад

      Honestly it’s about the same as gouache! Drying time, flow, opacity, it’s all very comparable. I use them interchangeably 😊

    Soaking your paper also removes all of the sizing. Sizing can be beneficial or annoying. It creates a soft barrier between the paper and the paint. Sizing can keep your paint from "sinking" into the paper. Sizing is great for watercolor dry brush techniques. I do like it for gouache the way I work, but I can see how removing it works with your softer style.

      Ohhh interesting!! I’m still learning about sizing (it’s a bit confusing for me 😅).
