I'm Sandy Allnock, and I love to paint! Traditional watercolor is closest to my heart, whether sketching local nature or urban settings, creating larger paintings of landscapes, seascapes, and wildlife - few subjects are off limits. I also play with other water media - gouache, watercolor pencils and pens, and more. Join me on this artventure and paint with me!

Don't miss this one on Saturday. I know, I know, it's grey. But you might get ideas for what you can do with it.... :) See you at the premiere at 8am Pacific....you did know we can chat there during the first play, right?

OOPS! Correction, in case I said the wrong thing in my video Saturday: this is not a primatek. In my tired/recovering from illness brain, I just thought lots of granulation = must be a primatek, and I might have called it one in the video. I definitely did that in the members video, but can't remember if I did in the public one. So no, there's not a primatek "version" of Potters Pink. https://youtu.be/kPpQZ3WkVIU

Pop over to my old channel today - this is the epic piece that took forevvvver to do, and you'll see the watercolor portion right here on this channel on Saturday. But this is good context for the purpose of it: https://youtu.be/qPF34DNvk50

I start gathering art supplies about two weeks before a trip, and by a week out I'm usually pretty well decided. Is that weird? See what I'm taking: https://youtu.be/eQK9Q4lcX5s

Saturday's Livestream! The tulips won the poll but I couldn't figure out how to paint them in an hour, so we'll go with choice 2. I simplified the window--you can make it even simpler by skipping the window and going for a good of color--or no background at all. Get your sketch ready! 8am pacific daylight time on Saturday the 21st❤️
