I remember five or six years ago when I first was interested in becoming an illustrator, I discovered this video. After this, I was obsessed with painting little worlds in jars and got hooked with water color. Now I am in my junior year of college (for illustration!) and just rediscovered this video... this brings me back! :)

Why is everyone is so tied up in the animals being in a jar? It's an art people. Love this.

You have one of the most easy-listening voices I've ever heard. So rare these days so find someone that appears so comfortable and relaxed. Best to you!

@NikaBoyce 4 года назад

Hollywood4Fun you must have a great affinity for vocal fry. I appreciate her commentary but her voice makes me want to clear my throat, continuously 🥺

@Iamalwaysgodschild 11 лет назад

@jimilapointe5336 8 лет назад

I LOVE this technique. I also would like a print of this. So imaginative.

@catchnrelease8528 4 года назад

Alison, you crushed this vid. Great job.

@RevK777 10 лет назад

Very beautiful, you make the leap to illustration feel easier for an artist that has never had exposure to it.

@kathyvangogh4034 6 лет назад

Oh my gawd I love you! I have never done illustration but I want to write a book so I looked this up. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!! Your work is sublime.

@GaySingleMulatto 7 лет назад

You made that look so very easy. I like that you mentioned that's how it works: intuitively and what you feel you want to see on the page". I started with pen, and did pretty well considering, but now I know that a pencil is best to rough sketch things in. Thanks.

@honeyvalenciarose5000 10 лет назад

your illustrations are so beautiful. They remind me of some really cute books I used to read as a kid.

@DeeWaterlily 3 года назад

Mind blown! I didn’t ever try the grey-wash with diluted ink. Great tip about the ink brush too. Beautiful, fanciful drawing.

@AlittleSprite 11 лет назад

Just today I said to Hubby I would love to get into illustrating.. Alison you have inspired me to start.. you are awesome and I love your style. Thanks so much for this video.

@arthappyneko 9 лет назад

Wow. That is so beautiful. I guess I gotta first learn how to draw with a pencil before I can get to inking or coloring.

@guigondi7671 9 лет назад

***** don't be afraid to try inking and coloring,you'll learn by doing it.

@palacinkasmarmeladou 9 лет назад

It's like riding a bike. Practice, practice & practice. You'll get where you wanna be 😉

@foxkocreates 10 лет назад

amazing, thanks so much. Your style is awesome. For people asking why the characters are in jars, welcome to illustration, where images tell a story. Use your imagination!

@mera2494 5 лет назад

Wow!! That was amazing and so easy!! I'm a artist and I've always wanted to learn how to do illustration art, but it was always hard for me since I'm into realism a bit more. And I'm such a perfectionist i can get a little frustrated at myself lol but i really like to learn this new skill. Fantastic job!! Thanks for the video!!!

@williamcopic817 3 года назад

This is a great video! I love watching watercolor, and use them a lot on my own channel!

@stephaniefuller262 9 лет назад

Thank you Alison. Nice to see a fellow artist's work. Being an artist myself I find it hard in what direction I would like to go and where I should be heading with what I can do. Any advice for a struggling painter? I prefer oils and acrylics myself. I continue to ask myself where do I see myself in 5 yrs and try to plan, but La s change.

@SarahMariLucas 8 лет назад

This was really awesome! And inspiring! Gave me an idea that I should start framing my artwork!

@gneaux1 10 лет назад

great demo, you successfully pointed out the basics, while pushing on some of the more intermediate and advanced processes. I recently graduated with a BFA and still found this very useful, also, pointing out the specifics of the products your using is always a plus, as it is so important. Thanks! great vid

@danab172 10 лет назад

oh my gosh, I really loved this. I really want to switch over from the kind of fine expressive artwork that I have been doing to something with ink and water. Oh dear, I cannot afford to take classes right now but really want to learn. Can u tell me if illustration classes primarily use pen and water? If they did then i am totally interested.

@camilochaj2823 8 лет назад

This video makes me want to try watercolor and ink, I haven't used them at all only color pencils and markers. Great video!

@XMusicxXxSoulX 8 лет назад

Loved the video! Having followed many other illustrators I can upon one that used a large range of inks I was unfamiliar with. I love ink pens but find it very tedious at times, so it was great watching your videos and getting introduced to a different style of ink. :-)

@MegabyteYou 11 лет назад

Excellent video. Although it doesn't go in-depth on illustration techniques, it really gives us some insight into it. Alison, could you do the underpainting of this sketch with Raw Umber / Burnt Umber so we could see how it compares against the black ink underpainting?
