Lately, I’m focused on the direct method of painting. The direct method means no prep drawing. I just go straight into the painting and observation. The direct method feels so relaxed and effortless. Using the direct method, I will spot an awkward moment in my creation. I love the awkward moments though.

I joined an outdoor drawing class at North Seattle College! The group of artists are friendly and the instructor Sarah is so calm and knowledgeable. I realized that I’ve never really taken a proper landscape class, and I pleased to be drawing on the North Seattle College campus. The image on the left was done in class with ink.

About \\

I love using watercolor for its transparency and delicate nature.

My name is Alyssa L. Crawford and I create pictures in Seattle, WA, USA. I enjoy creating dreamy and soft beauty. I often recreate the shapes and colors that I find in flowers and everyday life. My wish is that my audience feels compelled to slow down and breath. The artist life to me includes dedication and passion which inspires my lifelong learning. Thank you for visiting my little piece of the internet.
