  • Paint with me and see how I make decisions, fix problems, overcome things going wrong as I sketch. I also show you how I make a change in one of my oil pastel drawings that's really easy to do but makes a big difference. In the first painting I use my new Caran D' Ache Neocolor II wax pastels and in the second painting I use my Senneilier oil pastels. At the end I share several paintings and sketches I've done in oil and wax pastels.

    Sandi, what adorable and amazing works of art. Thank you so much for showing us your technique as well as being bold enough to screw up while filming yourself, and then crawling back out of it. Thank you so much, for being so real!

    Sandi,just got a Derwent inktense outliner pencil,it’s soooo useful,I tend to use it to look like inaccurate guidelines,it is waterproof and lays down either a lightweight line or heavy just as you want,I can go over it with Matt acrylic and it doesn’t budge,a welcome addition to my art stuff x

    • @katherineallsopp2687
      @katherineallsopp2687 4 года назад +1

      Sandi Hester not at all!! I think it’s the little decisions we make in our process that are automatic, even subconscious sometimes, during art making that are hard to articulate and often the most interesting to others. The little tips and tricks are so useful too! Great demo 👍

    This was so enjoyable...learned a lot and loved watching the process...I have really started letting go of " being precious" , and I've stopped focusing on the result. It has made being in my art room exciting and fresh. I feel like I was in a rut and your content has awakened and enlivened my approach and attitude. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for you HARD work and many hours of yourself that you share here.

    I saw your tip with the past hours of how to remember which ones you’re using or thinking about I thought I was the only one that did this. I flip mine in the opposite direction for the ones that I’m using. I don’t feel like a crazy person any more.

    Sometimes the kind of fear of making mistakes inhibites the joyfull process of making art, so thank you so much for making this video. I can really use your tips. 🙏 And then I also love the face and the process of making it. 😍

  • @MSKCCooke

    I love watching your process! And I love your pieces! Would you consider making a video teaching us, from your point of view, about composition? I ask because I liked the strawberries. I felt they helped tell the story. BUT I liked it when they were gone, too. Not more or less- I liked it both ways. Or should I just go take a class?! Lol! I really enjoy re-watching your videos because I see things differently the 2nd time. I am learning so much and yet, am I? Your studio and watching you create is so calming and comforting for me. I hope it is for you, too!

    • @sandihester
      @sandihester  3 года назад

      Wow - well, thank you so much for ALL of this! I'll consider that as a video (on composition) - there's a LOT to composition and I do take it into consideration but I also use my eye and what looks good and feels right to me. Looking at other artist's work and using their composition is a good idea too - take a painting you like and then set up a scene with your own stuff in it but lay it out like they do. It will also teach you a lot as you look hard at the painting and consider things.

  • @AWonderfulSheep

    I like the tip to decouple from the idea of colors and focus on values. I'd like to try that next time. :D

    • @sandihester
      @sandihester  4 года назад +2

      It’s really helpful with mediums that you don’t have a large range of colors. I’m thinking about rearranging my pastels into value instead of my color like I have them now.

    • @katherineallsopp2687
      @katherineallsopp2687 4 года назад +1

      @@sandihester I arrange by value too and I find you can actually come up with surprising colour choices.

    I just watched this again and drew a face right along with you. As I was writing, "all my faces look the same," you showed us even more at the end. They are so different! I am going to keep going and see if I can get the variety you do! 😆

    Thank you for showing us this process! It was so helpful and encouraging to see this part of "messing up" with art. One boy (A) agreed with you on taking out that second strawberry. Also, he was floored that your first red pencil portrait sketch took 3-5 seconds. :) He just finished doing timed sketches in his art class so he had some context. G's comment: Maaaaybe she's exaggerating. :)

    • @sandihester

    Hey Sandi. On the drawing where u took out the strawberry’s I feel it needs another yellow mark near the white mark on the table on the right of the bowl it just looked a bit empty I mean you don’t have to do it but I feel it would make the white mark happy 😊 good work tho. Love the videos although I am having to rewatch a ton caus I ran out of your videos to watch. Xx 😘

    I bet you could add extra layers on top of neos w your oil pastels. :-) and sometime, give neos a try with water- they’re lovely water soluble too!

    • @sandihester
      @sandihester  4 года назад +2

      Good tip! I may try that when I need to fix something and I can't add more layers

    Just love those pastel renderings. How do you store them? wax paper in between? then where do you put them. I live in a very hot humid climate all year and would love to buy the pastels as I really love sketching in that medium but fear storing them. Also do you seal them? Thanks Sandi
