Margaret's Bird
"I can’t believe that I did the whole 10 Day Watercolor Bird Challenge by @allisonlyonart!
I can say that this bird is the hardest to paint among all those 5 birds. But this bird is a good exercise if you want to paint better wings/ bird feathers."
-Margaret (@margarettahalele)

Haana's Bird
"Third birdie of the #paintbeautifulbirds challenge kindly hosted by @allisonlyonart ~ a European robin.
This little guy took soooo long, but at the end I think he turned out alright."

You dream of creating art you can proudly and confidently share with your loved ones.
You crave to express your admiration of nature and animals through your artwork.
You strive to become a better artist quickly and are willing to do whatever it takes for how long it takes to become better.
But when it comes to improving quickly, you're stuck.
Sometimes it feels like your art is going nowhere.
I want to show you there's an easier way!
After helping over a thousand students of my challenges and classes, improving your art comes down to one thing.
Consistent practice.
Consistent practice takes work and self-discipline, but I'm going to make it easier for you!

Hello there! I'm Allison & this is Leo, my assistant. We welcome you!
I believe that nature deserves our adoration and attention.
I believe that we need to admire our surroundings and reminisce the beauty that surrounds us.
I also believe that flowers and nature show us that there is good in this world ~ we just need to stop the hustle and appreciate the fascinating wonders of nature.
One of the ways I express my love of nature is with watercolor painting.
My goal is to help 10,000 nature-loving artists learn watercolor, so they too can ignite their love of nature with watercolors.
And I'd love for you to be one of the ten thousand.
