Beautiful and inspirational!

What kind of paper are you drawing/painting on?

Thanks for the video, amazing!!

Annie used Lana Watercolor Blocks (cold press) for most of the paintings in the video. Later she found Lana had changed their surface to a rougher cold press surface which she didn't like as much. She tried hot press (smoother), but found it to be too smooth for her liking. She's still on the hunt for a new paper with the qualities of the old Lana cold press. Thanks for your comments. :-)

What material is that... ie. What are those pastel/crayons that she can use with the water?

I must find some.

They are:

Caran D'Ache NeoColor Water-soluble Crayons

There's times where I think the best painters and artists are women.

Thanks. This really helped me with some problems I have been having with my art. I think I have been too concerned with commercial success. It has not come, and I start questioning the art! I need to get back to where I am doing it because I love it.

Love this video. I found painting after losing my eldest son 20 years ago and since then it has helped me on a journey to

heal old wounds and reconnect with my soul.

Thank you.Wonderful.I am inspired for my own healing process.I used to be very perfectionist w/ my art or writing to the point few things ever got finished.When I allow it I find the most amzing things come out of me spontaneously ,incredibly powerful & healing in the release.
