    Emma A wonderful video on practical use of value in pastel painting! Thank you for continuing to educate and enlighten your viewers on how they can make their own paintings better! I believe this has practical value in any artwork creation if it is simply adjusted to any medium an artist is using at any time.

      Thank you! The colour theory series definitely can be for any medium. But it's extra lovely using pastel to demo these things! A rainbow of colour ready to go :-)

    As a graphite artist, I understand values, but I'm having a hard time seeing all the values in pastels. I'm having to learn them by photographing in grayscale and comparing. Yikes! Love your videos! Thank you.

    • @EmmaColbertArt
      @EmmaColbertArt  Год назад +1

      That's a great way to learn to recognise their values! I often recommend grayscaling things to compare. Takes the colour out of the equation for a second. Keep going with colour, it's a journey!

    Hi Emma, just popped onto your website and read through your blog on the panoramic landscape of Mussenden (hope I spelled that correctly) Temple sunset or sunrise. STUNNING! it made me have to catch my breath. In the final pic on the blog you are holding up the pic and I sense you are pleased with it…I hope you are, as one busy pastel portrait artist to another, I find your work ethic, excellent tutorials and, of course, your brilliant art inspirational….You make me get off my backside to work in my little studio. Just to add, I think this painting is your “Dark Side of the Moon”…or “Gone with the Wind”…or “Starry Starry Night”….it’s epic, it’s perfect and I’m totally in love with it. I’m going to keep an eye out for the limited edition giclee and buy it…Sorry if this post is a bit much but you’ve blown me away with this painting, I only hope that one day I can cause somebody to react the same way…God bless…Jim

      @EmmaColbertArt  2 года назад +1

      Jim that's very kind of you thank you! It's a very nice comment to receive and to know someone thinks that of your painting. I was very pleased with this one, but it's always hard to be objective with your own work and normally I'm just happy to be finished and onto the next one so I don't give them a lot of thought! Really appreciate your comment :-)

    Thank you so much for another fantastic video! I once heard " Tone does all the work but colour gets all the credit" and that has stayed w me. I am very new to soft pastels and your advice in invaluable, it can also be applied to other art materials. I once did a leaf in watercolour but it was only when I dared to go very, very dark in some places it suddenly came "alive".

    • @EmmaColbertArt
      @EmmaColbertArt  2 года назад +2

      I love that, so true! Tone is so important. Like I said it's the first thing I think about before anything to do with colour and it is often overlooked. I feel repetitive in my tutorials sometimes saying, you need to go darker in the beginning than you think. The contrast needs to be there!

    How do you buy each pastel separately if it's finished?

    • @EmmaColbertArt
      @EmmaColbertArt  2 года назад

      Most pastel brands sell them individually as well as in sets. For example here are Unisons on Jackson's Art as individual sticks fq%5Bpastel_sticksize%5D=Regular&q=unison%2Bpastels&___store=jacksonsart_en&acc=087408522c31eeb1f982bc0eaf81d35f

    For me...seeing a coloured pastel example....red....it's not instinctive to see the tone ... after your video...I will have to train my eye for that

    • @EmmaColbertArt
      @EmmaColbertArt  2 года назад

      It's more difficult with some colours for sure! Taking a photo and checking the greyscale version is a great way to check and train your eye
