What! I can't believe there's a single thumbs down!
Thank you, both of you. I'm so crazy in love with creating art.
I've done the texture thing from the beginning. The beginning was not so long ago. I went with a woven design, etc. just because I thought I was doing something different. OMG! One would believe someone should know better
You my dear Tricia, have taken it to a place where I now have direction.
Once again, thank you so much!
XOXO from a distance!
Dear Diana, what a lovely response! Thank you for taking the time to write and it is wonderful to hear that you are enjoying your art with texture - it is fabulous isn't it! Sincerely
Tricia

Kelcey, what a wonderful reaction to the show - thank you so much for taking the time to write and for your generous comments
I love some of your ideas Tricia, especially the primer and the water technique and texturing the primer, I love working with pastel amongst other mediums, but find the pastel grows quickly and the colours are amazing, can't wait to try different things.
yes Lydia, pastel is so immediate and luscious. I hope you enjoy some of these techniques too
Fantastic episode packed full of wonderful tips & tricks and thinking outside the box. Really enjoyed Tricia’s enthusiasm and excitement showing us her terrific techniques which I will certainly be putting into practise asap. 😃❤️👍🏻
Dear Rhonda,
fabulous feedback - I hope you do try these techniques and that you enjoy them, many thanks, Tricia
What an incredibly talented artist ! I love her technique so much. This channel and 'LearnFromMasters' are definitely two of the best art channels on RUclips!!!
Those paintings titled 'Haven' and 'Of Service' are stunning!!!!
Thank you so much - it is heartening to have you remark so encouragingly on my work
@@triciareust8626 You're very welcome!!
Really amazing technique and artwork. At 6:50 when she was pointing out the importance of planning out the final artwork and making all the necessary decisions before you begin work on the paper or canvas, I have found that making sketches in a sketchbook can be extremely helpful with that.
One can plan out every step and detail in the sketches so that when you begin working on the canvas you know exactly what you're going to do. Someone can make dozens and dozens of sketches and work out every last little detail before they begin.
For example if someone wants buttons on a shirt to be really grainy and made of rough pastel unblended, and the shadows on the side of the button to be soft edged and blurry, that can not only be planned in the sketch but even what exact technique would be used to get that final result can be decided on and practiced on before you get to that part in the finished picture. Sketches can be done in any medium, even pastels or paints themselves. These would all be throw away sketches, their only purpose is how they would affect and help the finished picture.
Too true Robert! Thank you for writing in
love her ideas
dear Robyn, thanks for this - I hope that you can try some !
thank you
I'm so glad you created your channel. Thank you so much for these wonderful videos.

so sorry James, to misspell your name in my previous reply
Pastels are my favourite medium, absolutely love the techniques and textures Tricia demonstrated😊. Also didn’t realise you can spray varnish pastel😮
yes Karen, hope you try working with pastel on canvas and spraying to seal!
Thanks for sharing your talent Tricia, this was fun watching off to watch some more... :)
Thank you Lynette - hope you find all the other videos I have made! And of course, get something useful out of them.

You’re welcome!
Thank you so much! What an awesome video! You have shared such fabulous ideas and techniques Lovely
Thank you Shaazia - I hope you try them out !
Graeme, tu est un très bon animateur , avec beaucoup de grasse un belle personnalité.Cheers du Canada 🇨🇦
Merci beaucoup. Je fais de mon mieux pour laisser les artistes expliquer leur histoire sans s'impliquer. J'aimerais un jour venir au Canada et filmer la série. Merci encore, Graeme
I would love to be able to reply as did Graeme, in your language - and I am assuming that your reaction has been positive! Thank you
I am just learning pastels and I love them! And Thanks for helping me in my journey :)
Dear Sue, they are my favourite medium too - I hope that you enjoy pushing the pastel around with water and other techniques
Really enjoyed this episode I used avoid pastels as I was scared that they can be toxic so this has inspired me to give them a go
Sharon Doolan yes, do have a go, the manufacturers have lots of information available, just google their sites if you have any concerns.
Love this. So many new ideas to try out. Thankyou
So good to read that you are taking some of the techniques and thinking of trying them out
Really great video,...love the magic that is soft pastels !
Beautiful
thank you ! I appreciate you taking the time to write
Very inspiring and beautiful work. Really interesting with the primers and textures. Painting can be done without drawing abilities but pastels look like drawing is needed. My drawing is getting better but lordy, that's a lot of supplies and I'm a bit hesitant having copd and working with airborne particles. Lovely demo. Thank you.
these are certainly concerns with your condition, but some pastellists wear masks and gloves, and there are air circulation/purification machines for use in studios
Wonderful!
thank you for writing your reaction - hope you try some of the techniques
Beautiful art, amazing talent!
Thank you for taking the time to write - I hope you found something of use in your personal art practice!
Beautiful work wow

Wow 🤩
nice coloring
Thank you Nurun
Thank you
Greetings from Mexico City!
and back to you! Thanks for watching
Love this video series. Thank you for sharing Tricia. So inspiring to see these alternative techniques. Can you use clear primer on black paper to get same effect, or do you have to use black primer.
dear Candice, thanks for your kind comments and no, I don't use clear primer on the black Art Spectrum Colourfix as it does not dry perfectly clear on the black and I want the deep pure black to be under the bright colours with this technique. I have used other colours such as terracotta on terracotta paper etc for different effects, which also look great. Experiment and try different combinations out and you will find the ones that appeal!
@@triciareust8626 thank you for taking time to reply. Look forward to trying rhis technique.
@@triciareust8626 last question, what is difference between using AS Colourfix Primer vs gesso to create texture?
@@candicewoodard8575 dear Candice, differences - gesso is thoroughly opaque, so would completely cover and obliterate anything under it (for example any collage elements, or previous applications) so you would need to use the transparent AS Colourfix primer for that; gesso does not have as much tooth as AS primer so would not hang on to as many layers of pastel as the AS primer. Gesso is fine for the texture technique that I demonstrate in the TV episode because it has the tooth it does, but as you see in the show, it is then covered with pastel. I have an article on gesso coming out in the Australian Artist magazine later this year, and after that is published, it will be up on my blog section of my web site. Best wishes for your success in your art journey!
@@candicewoodard8575 Dear Candice, differences - gesso is thoroughly opaque so would completely cover anything underneath it (collage, previous applications of pastel etc). You would need to use the clear (transparent) Art Spectrum pastel primer in that circumstance of wishing to reveal what is under. Gesso does not have as much tooth as the AS primer, so would not hold as many layers of pastel. In the demo in the TV episode, you will see that when I use the gesso for the texture technique, I cover it with pastel. I have an article on gesso being published in the Australian Artist magazine later this year, ad after that it will be up on the blog section of my web site. Best wishes for your art journey!
Hi, loved your video with all the techniques; I found it fascinating. I was wondering if the pastel primer you mentioned is clear gesso placed onto watercolor paper or canvas? I have that and I have tried it but have found it to be TOO gritty -- chewing up my pastels. I tried sanding it very gently with the finest sand paper but then felt that I lost too much tooth. I can't seem to figure out how to get just the right amount. Do you have any videos on how to use pastel primer in the best way? Thank you.
Dear Renee, the primer is manufactured by Art Spectrum and is what they use to screen print on to the paper to make Colourfix pastel paper - they have it available in tubs. You can purchase a smoother version or the original. It is not clear gesso - I have used that and it does not dry clear enough for me - an important factor especially when I want to pastel over layers of collage and colour. I demonstrate for art societies and at workshops regularly, but I don't have any other videos on using pastel primer, but hope to put together my articles and blogs on that subject together in the future. I am glad you enjoyed the processes and I hope you have success in trying them!
Dear Renee, the primer iI use is Art Spectrum colourfix primer and you can purchase it in th eoriginal texture mixture, or a softer mixture. it is a wonderful medium that I use ofter - I hope it proves to be successful for you
muito bom perfect --- aqui Haroldo - brasil
thank you so much - hope you feel interested to try some of the techniques
I love lots of texture on my pastel paintings. Can you tell me: the collage paintings... Do they meet requirements for pastel competitions since they've been coated with the primer?
Thanks for writing, and the paintings are pastel paintings on a prepared paper. The only medium used is pastel. You only apply the primer over the collage, not over the pastel layer. I hope you enjoy working this way.
How do you protect the pastel on the canvas please when it’s hung ? Do you spray varnish ?
Hi Anthea, yes, I use spray varnish, the Micador brand - it is available in Mat, Satin and Gloss and I use mat - hope you are inspired to try! You just have to get used to which pastel pigments get darker and which ones disappear when sprayed
Thank you so much! Yes it has definitely inspired me especially the texture drawn and scratched in the primer!
A fabulous video x
@@antheablackmore5838 really appreciate you taking the time to write - I will try to answer any comments when I get notice of them
Great video
thank you for taking the time to comment!
Please, What is softened Grafton Australia?
best bet would be to contact Trisha Directly , Graeme
dear viewer, "Softened Grafton" is a pastel work on Art Spectrum Colourfix, where I prepared the paper by adhering a collage and some texture. I painted the background with wet pastel, allowing it to drip so that the effect would enhance the feeling of water. I then applied soft pastel. The scene is the river behind my auntie's home in Grafton, in NSW, early one morning.
