At first I thought "26 minute video? Who has time for that?" but now I am grateful I did take my time to watch it. Very helpful video, I recommend it. It's more than worth the time.
Having watched many instructional videos on pastel painting, I found this one the most helpful. I liked your teaching style and appreciated all the tips. After working in other media, I'm just starting out in pastels, and will try to copy this painting using the approaches you showed. Many thanks!
This was so good. For some reason I totally forgot about pastel artwork LOL. I used to even fiddle around with it when I was younger. Your personality is wonderful and I thank you for sharing your talent
I enjoyed your way of creating this painting and talking through your thought process. The drawing-in of the outer border left it with even more character in the end, so I'll stop taping the sides on every thing. Just a delight seeing this come together. Thanks!
thank you for sharing, enjoyed the video, liked your music selection during the speeded up times, thank you for mentioning fixative and when it's appropriate to use it, really liked your instruction!
I love your work. I heard you say this photo was taken in Monument, Colorado. I just live very close to Monument so it made watching you do this pastel work even more enjoyable!
Man! This is such an amazing piece, and very inspiring. Now I will definitely have my hand at pastels, I love landscapes and have never used pastels properly it seems.
I watched this video few days ago and loved it, thought today I would watch it again and thought i must leave a comment only to scroll down and find out I already did! What can I say I love this video so much, it's way more useful than many others I have watched. I'd give it a 100 likes if I could! Thanks again, have a great day :)
So beautiful. You are incredible...and actually funny with the way you talk to the camera hah. Thanks for the inspiring video, it's amazing to see it come alive.
You are a very good teacher, I have enjoyed this so much and learned a lot. Thank you so much sense I'm just starting out doing pastels. I usually do watercolors but pastels are so fun... watching the shading of the colors come alive I have fallen in love with it. Now I need to Practice a lot !!!
Extremely good tutorial! I just bought some pastels the other day and have been having fun with them. This video was very informative...hope I can find some others that you have done.
Beautiful picture,and great information. I love the way you are so relaxed and tell us what you are doing as your painting the picture. Very inspiring. Looking forward to more of your pastel tutorials.Thankyou.........Lynda from New Zealand
Hi, loved this tutorial. I am having a hard time painting prickly pear cactus in pastel. I love the impressionistic style of painting but just can't seem to master it. Would love to see you paint a prickly pear cactus with blooms, that would help me a lot. Thank you!
Thank you for a lovely demonstration. I've just started dabbling in pastels and this was a great introduction. I use many of the basic theories you shared with acrylic painting and so this was in line with some of what I already do. Loved watching the evolution and easy to follow instructions. Great demo!
A painting is done when it sells...🤣 I just do art for fun and relaxation. I watched the whole video. Very nice artwork. I have pastels. I'll try to do some artwork with it.😊
