I have some ideas to help us TAME THE GREEN! In this demo I share my secrets to better greens as I paint a typical summer meadow and trees. I hope you enjoy the demo!

I like you not only because your knowledge, but also for your frank tone.
I have learned so much from watching your videos! You are a wonderful teacher. You explain things so simply and clearly. I'm always amazed how I learn something new every time I watch another of your videos. Your way of sharing all the little tricks and details that go into pastel painting make me an avid viewer. Thank you for so willingly sharing your expertise with us!
You are so welcome! Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback!
Karen, Thank you for this very informative video. Greens can be a challenge.
The dirt and variety of values that you explained bring it all to life! Very helpful!!!
You are so welcome!
Lovely. Really haas that summer day feel
Excellent ! Thank you !
I learned a lot from this lesson! 😄
Excellent! That makes me happy! Thanks for watching!
This is a great demonstration of how to use contrast between the red/green complementary pair to create colors that pop! We love the suggestion to use denatured alcohol- it works with a lot of dry media, like graphite and charcoal, too!
Thank you very much!! I appreciate the feedback from my favorite art store! I just got a new order today and can't wait to try my new supplies!!
Thank you so much for being such a great teacher and explaining so well! Have a fine weekend!
Thank you! You too!
Oh ! I really loved this painting and learned so much.
Thank you for sharing your talents
Wonderful presentation! Stunning painting ! A great inspiration. Thank you!
Thank you so much!
My illustration teacher used to tell us not to worry about how it looks when you’re building up the painting because in his words, “it will suck until it’s done.”
But your paintings never ever ever suck even when they’re at the most basic stage. Even at the most basic stage when you’re creating shapes, your paintings are stunningly beautiful and they just get even more beautiful as you progress.
And best of all you teach us how to develop all this beauty for ourselves.
Watching you create with pastels es so much sense! All the advice about composition, colour values, focal points and what to leave out is priceless! Thank you for your inspiration!
loved this!
Thank you, Karen, for always explaining things so thoroughly.
You are so welcome!
Fabulous, Karen. Thank you.
Thank you!!
Beautiful painting. You make it so easy looking, but for me, they are very intimidating. Still learning!
Thank you so much 😀It is a learning process for sure but keep practicing and it will get easier!
thank you
Very inspiring tutorial!! I have suffered from artist block for years but I can feel that I need to start painting again for my mental well being. I just don’t understand why it’s so hard to get going!! Your tutorials are some of the best 💕
Thank you Linda! I hope I've inspired you in some small way to get painting again! ❤️
@Linda G I have just started on my drawing and watercolour journey and I believe the answer to your question "why is it so hard to get going?" is that it can be a lot of work. I always thought the people that painted well were gifted and that was that. But in reality it's hours and hours of learning, experimenting and practising. Cheers.

THe KEM TL curated florals set I ordered is scheduled to arrive this afternoon and the timing is perfect for trying this demo! I’m in your patreon group also and since you use the set often it will also come in handy there. It can also function as a versatile workshop/class set and fills some important holes in my pastel collection. As always an insightful teaching resource today. Thank you! (Happy to see a reference to the Smokies where the DH and I spent so many happy times in our youth-now in the apple country of New England-no complaints 😊).
Awesome!! I hope you enjoy the set! It truly has become my go to set for just about anything!

@@KarenMargulis ❤️
Karen habemos muchos que te seguimos soy de Chile, traduce los video porfavor!!! saludos
👍😊
Thanks for watching!
Hi Karen. Have painted in every medium except pastel.Have sennelier soft pastels and Jack Richardson pastels. Would you suggest any other. Variety is the spice of life.
Hi Ken you have great pastels. My personal favorite are Terry Ludwig pastels which are a nice square shape and slightly less soft that the Sennelier pastels so they make a great marriage!
Hi Karen, i have a package of green pastelmat. What would you suggest for this color of paper? Thank you for another informative video.
Thanks for watching! I like green paper for just about anything. It is a nice neutral . If I was painting something with a lot of green I would be sure to underpaint with some warmer colors.
Thank you Karen for this tutorial! So inspiring! Which type of paper should I need? I'm used to paint in aquarelle paper. Could I use that? Or you use a particular type of paper specifically for pastels? Thanks again, greetings from Argentina!
Yes you can! Canson mi-teintes paper is also goo and economical. I like to use sanded papers. I am not sure what kind is available in Argentina but look for something that says sanded paper for pastels.
@@KarenMargulis I'll search and see what I can get. Thank you so much for your advice!
👍👍👍👋👋👋😊
Hi Karen, I love your videos. They've taught me so much, One thing: I notice that you cough frequently when you work and I expect it's from the pastel dust. So I hope you are using a mask when you are not on camera. The pastel dust can really be bad for your lungs and I want to keep watching your videos!!! 'thank you so much
Can we use turpentine?
Yes. You can really use just about any liquid. I need to try the hand sanitizer. 😁
Hi. Someone fixed my email. So I should get your patreon emails now. Thanks a lot
I am so happy for this update!!
Sorry I'm still not getting your patrron emails because my email doesn't work. I need to cancel and start again but I dont know how.
