Thanks, Matt! 'blocking in colors and making adjustments', and mixing black with other colors to look more natural are two ideas I appreciated hearing, today. Really good reminders.
Excellent… your teaching instructions r spot on. A natural… a soft makeup brush from dollar store works well for removing dust… beautiful… pastel is a lovely medium…
I just finished this tutorial and before I do anything else, I want to thank you for you for this clear, fun, and informative lesson! It’s given me confidence to believe I can move forward. I really appreciate having the opportunity to learn!
Thank you! As a beginner, I followed along thinking there was no way mine was going to turn out...but in the end it did! I'm really happy with the result. Wonderful tutorial!
I used this for my very first pastel exercise! It was ok but, I think my paper was too rough as it showed through even after much blending! But, at least now I ‘ve discovered pastel work. Thanks. Your lemon was great mine it passed for a lemon……just! Big thanks!
Enjoyed this and did my first lemon on oil pastels (also first apple and first time to use oil pastels which I bought today while out of town) I need to practice 30 min a day like you said. Life gets in the way and other projects ...
Bravo, what a talented teacher and painter you are. I find this video very helpful in my learning of pastel drawing. One observation that I have made is that you seem not to be cleaning your fingers after switching from one colour pastel to another, does not mix with previous? colours
I'm new to art this was a great quick practice exercise for me. Mine came out nice for my first time with soft pastels. I see myself using these a lot!
I enjoyed painting this and the result was beautiful. Thank you for this video!! Your tips helped enormously. I look forward to working on more of your lessons. Thanks again!
I enjoy your lessons. I am careful not to blow on the pastel painting to avoid breathing the dust. I work in a vertical orientation and tap letting the dust fall into a gutter due to health concerns.
So beautiful, I would like to know what sort pastels brand your using and also the paper description, my pastels seem too soft it takes me a lot to fill the gabs and achieve such vibrant results.
I didn’t know pastel papers exist . I always used normal sketching paper and wondered why they don’t work . I just did a quickie on watercolour paper and results were good
I have read over and over that we should not blow on our pastel paintings while working, because the dust is toxic. Since you are working vertically, would enough pastel dust fall off the painting without having to blow on it? I'm just wondering about safety - it is SO tempting to blow the excess away while working!!! Thank you!
Nice work, but what sort of pastel use you ? The Yellow is not the same like the other pastel. (le pastel jaune n'est pas de la même texture que les autres...)
dear Matt thanks a lot for the exercises and your instructions. What is the pastel pencil you use for the deep shadow under the lemon? I tried Pitt and carbothello and Carbon but none of them is creamy as yours and tend to scratch the previous pastel rather than blending. Thanks always for your great instructions (I am considering to subscribe, if one it’s you)
are you using Oil Pastels or soft pastels, and what brand do you use, also the pencils..what brand are they ? I have really enjoyed watching this, and can't wait to try it, thanks for posting
Nice tutorial. One problem: professional pastelists do not blow on their paintings/drawings. They tap the edge on the table top to remove the excess dust.
I can spend all day and forever trying to get a perfect drawing and then I sketch a lemon, use chisel tip markers for bkground & foreground texture and form in 15min and I’m more proud of it than the laborious “perfected” drawing…. Go figure . I’m definitely doing these 10-20min studies daily and probably still doing the elaborate taxing ones

This looks just like an oil painting rendition. Beautiful.
This is what I really like about your RUclips channel; you get right down to teaching, without any time-wasting extranious stuff.
That lemon is so good! I can't wait to try this!

Fantastic. I am inspired and will watch again and practice.
Your clear instructions are wonderful. I’ve learned so much already! Thank you 😊
Matt, your style of teaching is fun, informative, interesting...and addictive
Thank you very much! This is my first pastel exercise and I am so enjoying it! Very clear and motivational instructions.
Beginner here ✌️so far loving it ❤❤❤
Beautiful! Mi fai venire voglia di comprare pastelli e matite e cominciare a creare! Grazie
You made lesson 1 so much fun. I enjoyed your slow paced instructions. I am a believer!
I used this for my very first pastel exercise! It was ok but, I think my paper was too rough as it showed through even after much blending! But, at least now I ‘ve discovered pastel work. Thanks. Your lemon was great mine it passed for a lemon……just! Big thanks!
Brilliant 30 min exercise and very enjoyable thankyou.
Super super gréât lesson ! Thanks so much !

Blowing on the pastel painting
These are two things that seem to be pastel taboos on other channels. Good work!!
I enjoy your lessons. I am careful not to blow on the pastel painting to avoid breathing the dust. I work in a vertical orientation and tap letting the dust fall into a gutter due to health concerns.
Great job! Your voice is soothing, your style encouraging....

Molto bravo
Which pastel set should I buy?
So beautiful, I would like to know what sort pastels brand your using and also the paper description, my pastels seem too soft it takes me a lot to fill the gabs and achieve such vibrant results.
It's in the description, Canson Mi Teintes paper and Rembrandt soft pastels.
Lindo!!!!!!!! Parabéns!!!!
There's a big shadow edge missing in front or it's way too light.
Hi! Beatitul demostration. Which brand of pastels are you using? Looks kind of creamy
He's written in the description that they're Rembrandt soft pastels.
What kind of pastels do you use ?
May i ask you a question.can i draw this with oil pastels ?
Wonderful
Can I do this with oil pastels??
Well done! Just wondering about you blowing all the excess pastel. Must make your studio and maybe your lungs dusty?
What was the pencil used for sketching? Is it a pastel pencil?
It’s oil pastel
@@guanxiongli868No, he used a "Conte à Paris" pastel pencil.
Love it:)
Beautiful

Nice 👍🏻
Good
Will it look nice if painted on black sand paper?
I am very very new to pastels. Were you using oil pastels or soft? This is definitely I am going to try. Thank you
Do you always use your fingers, or will paper towel ing wotk? I am a baby beginner in pastel. Thank you.
You can use a chamois, paper towel, or blending stumps to blend.
Nice work, but what sort of pastel use you ? The Yellow is not the same like the other pastel. (le pastel jaune n'est pas de la même texture que les autres...)
Please what kind of pestil use.
Do you like sandpaper or textured paper? If so why is it?'.....I love meteintes touch sandpaper....although world loves pastelmat....please comment
Cool👌

It's a "Conte à Paris" pastel pencil.
Were those Rembrandt Pastel Pencils, or some other? I really enjoy pastel drawings, i find it so much more flexible than just colored pencils!
ferdouse - in the description!
@@music-sc7eg Thank you, I am familiar with the Rembrandt rounded soft pastes, but saw you using pastel pencils. Cheers
@@FerdouseThe pencil is "Conte à Paris".
hola haber si puedes hacer una cesta de frutas
Could you please distinguish whether you are using oil pastels, or (chalk-like) pastels?
these look like soft chalk pastels
Che tipo di carta ai usato
Canson Mi Teintes
are you using Oil Pastels or soft pastels, and what brand do you use, also the pencils..what brand are they ? I have really enjoyed watching this, and can't wait to try it, thanks for posting
i see now above me your list of products...thanks...except for the pencils, can't quiet make the brand out...
@@hearviewb123ontargetThe pencil brand he used is Conte à Paris.
Looove
is this oil pastel?
No, soft pastel.
Nice tutorial. One problem: professional pastelists do not blow on their paintings/drawings. They tap the edge on the table top to remove the excess dust.
Like the lessons,but I never blow the pastel.
I just tap it out every now & then in a trash can. Bad for the lungs to have all those dust flying around 😀
Matt. You should not blow uour pastel dust. Please wear a mask.
Or he can use a mini vacuum with a HEPA filter. Long term inhalation of pastel dust can cause COPD.
This was very good but the blowing was super distracting.
I can spend all day and forever trying to get a perfect drawing and then I sketch a lemon, use chisel tip markers for bkground & foreground texture and form in 15min and I’m more proud of it than the laborious “perfected” drawing…. Go figure . I’m definitely doing these 10-20min studies daily and probably still doing the elaborate taxing ones
The top looks fuzzy.
Wooooooooooq
