Process of a Pastel portrait, Big size portrait

- Hello again!!
I wanted to come back with a very special portrait..And having something good to show. To paint this portrait was very intense and emotional for me and it came to me very quickly. Giving freedom to my emotions expressed through the colors and strokes. This is a portrait of a young gifted craft-man who passed away recently...The portrait was commissioned by his mother...
For this work I have used mostly Unison Soft Pastels on dark grey Canson paper, the biggest size available, 29 x 43 inches. Big sizes allows me to be more expressive, something I felt necessary in this case.

What you did here isn’t only a portrait but you’ve brought back to life one of the most important people in the world of a mother who lost her precious child. That’s simply wonderful, she must have absolutely loved this! So good of you to put this much feeling into you’re portraits.
This is the best artwork on RUclips
My! you must paint and draw everyday to achieve that quality! Amazing!
You are simply amazing 👏
very nice soft pestal work 💖💙
Amazing! His skin is so luminous! What a beautiful portrait.
You are amazing!! Beautiful portraits! Thank you!
Such a beautiful portrait of a beautiful human (I'm sure). Sorry for your loss.

Ayyyyeee
YOu have captured a beautiful spirit in that portrait, and it sings with love. How precious it must be to his mother, God bless her! Thank you so much for sharing the process with us. It is such a pleasure watching you do this.
Such a beautiful portrait ...
Beautiful job but I wish some of these painters would name the colors they used and why they used them so we can learn from them.
Do you see those marks on the side of the painting? She's figuring it out for herself. Art isn't paint by numbers. It is practicing and using your eyes, testing your materials, to find the right colors.
@@mercster Hello Mercster, This is absolutely correct. I use a lot of different colors and sometimes I am not really sure which one I need to apply, so I test them on the side of the painting... Thank you for following! Graciela.
@@bograart No problem! Great painting. I'm a beginner, i mostly use soft pastels.
There are so many pastels in a box that naming them all would make a video like this hours long and most of us would switch off. Besides the name of the pastel varies depending who the manufacturer is. Just enjoy the process. Colours really don’t mean much, some deliberately use colours that clash for effect. It’s a great video, just wish mine were 1% as good. Thanks GB for you efforts. Now it will take some time to clean your hands and the floor. A good painting like this paints itself.
So beautiful!❤
Love love LOVE this
Anytime I lose artistic inspiration.. I know I can come back to this video to find comfort and find myself again. Thank you for this.
Fabulous and so beautiful - you have captured his soul. From one artist to another.
What a wonderful portrait. So skillfully done of a beautiful man. He radiates so much joy and love.
I enjoyed this video so much! As usual, it's definitely very well invested time! Thank you for taking the time to show us the magic of your work.
The painter has excellent, very good artistic talent.
So happy, free and colourful.

No words to say 3🏆
So blown away...your technique is breathtaking, totally!
I've been watching your videos for straight 2 hours
loved the way you did the background...with all the vivid colours. Beautiful!!
SO good to see you back! Beautiful work. I'm sure his mother loved this. Condolences to you.
Dear mimmi,
Thank you for your kind words!
Regards, Bogra
Wow, I'm a fan of your work! inspiring!!
It' s amazing ! Watching you...so natural,so relaxed, give us so much confidence and it is really seems so easy to achieve this level, this piece of art. THANK YOU ,IT IS A PLEASURE AND A PRIVILEGE TO SEE YOU AT WORK !!I would really love to know your ways to blend colors, gracias!
It's delightful to watch you in making such beautiful portrait..thank you for sharing the video. 😊
So very happy to see this new video, and wow was it worth the wait! Your art is not only enjoyed and embraced by those lucky to obtain one of your portraits, but also by fellow artists. Whenever feeling in a rut or lacking inspiration for a piece I'm working on, watching you do one of your's, snaps me right out of it. Truly awesome and beautiful work you do! Thanks and look forward to seeing another video.
Wow, that was so incredible to watch...mesmerizing. You are a true master, to watch you draw him so realistically, even before you painted, wow! Then you showed us more magic, using pastels to create, what emotion! Your obvious confidence, your strong, unhesitating strokes with your pastels... Fabulous! I subscribed to your channel on the spot. Now I'm going to watch whatever other videos you've already put up, hopefully I might pick up a tip or two lol. I have pastels but have been a too intimidated to use them so I'm just practicing drawing with graphite pencil. I would just like to add...What an amazing tribute!! It has surely touched the hearts of all who knew him. You have captured the very essence of him, it feels like he's looking out from your painting. My condolences to everyone who loves him (not loved because their love lives on in their hearts). His mother, his family and friends will surely treasure this beautiful portrait you have painted of him. Sorry for long message. Thank you so much for sharing this. Kind Regards, Angela
Dear Angela,
Thank you so much for your wonderful words and for taking your time writing this so long and beautiful message!
Don´t be intimidate by using your Pastels, on the contrary...Enjoy to play with your colours. Do not be afraid to break them neither! They are made to be used, think about them as a colours in your pallet that can be mixed, smashed or erased if you want to...Just keep drawing but with colours. I am sure you will find your own way to express yourself!
You are doing right by practicing drawing since drawing is the base for painting in Pastel technique.
Once again, thanks to you for your nice letter,
Warm regards,
Graciela.
I dont mean to be so offtopic but does anybody know a way to get back into an instagram account?
I somehow forgot my password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me.
@Titus Rodney Instablaster ;)
@Carter Layton thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Carter Layton it did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my account !
I do understand about portraits coming quick but honestly, I try and I learn, struggle, win some lose others, but the way you master this craft must be a gift from God. I just never will be this good. You are an amazing artist. I was born with a burning desire to do what you do but it never is this easy. God bless and keep you theres no doubt you have a responsibility to record life as you see it.
Ohh so beautiful !! I have learned and been inspired more by watching this than anything else I have seen !! Thank you so much for sharing such a personal work for you with us !! God Bless !!

Amazing as always. I loved the slowed down style of this video because every move you make just looks so powerful. Soft pastels really are a wonderful medium and I think you are by far the best in painting portraits with them :)
