Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much for this video, I have learnt so much from it ♥️
You are so welcome! that makes me happy Suzanne!
Love these. I will be using these this wknd. I Painted a river today with pastels. the foilage is nice ... but i couldnt really get the water to look like water
This was great! Your tips were so detailed. Made me see the light. Looks easy to me. I saved it and will watch a few more times. Thanks
Glad it was helpful! That's what I love to hear Raye!
I started practicing on tiny surfaces to kind of get used to painting again. I started copying some of your paintings; even twice some. At the beginning I was not happy with the results; now I feel more confident and even please with what I have been doing. I felt in love with underpainting. Still a long way to go; but I am getting there. Thank you so much.
I am so happy to hear that! Sounds like you have a persistent spirit, and that’s what you need to become an artist. Keep it up, sweetheart!
This is such a helpful tutorial. I love painting water, too. I've learned some great tips and approaches from this video Thanks, Susan!
Awesome Joyce, I appreciate that so much!
Lol, I have that t-shirt too! 😄
How cool Linda!!!
Wow! Thank you.
You are so welcome!
Great tips, thank you!
You are so welcome!❤️☺️💜
Best lessons I've seen. Thank you. I'm working in acrylic but I can use many of these tips.
Wonderful! yes, many of the same principles apply with acrylics as well!
Amazing 🤩
Thank you so much for these very useful and wonderful tips. It is a pleasure to watch you create magic on paper. Thanks again.
Thank you so much!
I generally use acrylics , taken it up after retirement. But your tips are equally applicable to acrylics . I know for certain as i had figured out some of them after much trial and error .
Most informative video i have watched
Love you comment, Chandana! I often say that my lessons work for multiple mediums. Many of the principles are the same. Blessings and thanks!
Thank you so much for these wonderful tips! They are an invaluable aid to me 😊. Also, I love your little furry friend 🐶I have one that is half French bulldog and half Staffordshire bully. Her name is Lala and she is as sweet as pie 💕
You are so welcome Monalisa! I bet your pup is so cute! I like her name. My dog's mama's name is "Lola". :)
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful talent and tips I am just learning so everything you're sharing I'm soaking up like a sponge. Bless you. Oh I thought you might like to know where I'm watching from, Australia xx
This is so helpful
I actually study physics and I agree with you on that reflection theorie. I think the process of studying an object and then painting it gives you a great feeling on how the world works. You are a great example😄. this tutorial is in my list to watch it later .
Thank you so much! Your comment truly blessed me.
I'm going to the beach soon, and I am really exciting to try painting with my pastels there, but I have never painted water before! this is such a helpful video, thank you!
Yay! That’s what I love to hear Bella! Have fun!
I love your puppy, we used to have one just like him/her, he was a love
I know, Boston’s are the sweetest breed!
Fantastic video!!
Thank you so much, @Emeraldheart1021! Your comment blessed me.
Water is my Kryptonite lol. So I appreciate any tips I can get. I can do oceans ok.. but I have a very hard time getting fresh water color down.. I try not to make it look blue because often times freshwater is more of a dark green or almost brownish but that makes it tough to stand out from the landscape sometimes! I have quite the time with that
OMG Susan! I haven’t even watched the video yet but i see that you have a boston terrier👍One is snoring just across from me… I am going to watch your demo on the big screen later …..
Oh yes Isabel... I love my little Jackson!!! He is literally my best friend!!! Bostons are amazing. A friend gifted mine to me after I went through a battle with cancer. Best gift ever!!!
Your teaching is so intetesting. Unfortunately the text lines cover the work you do. However l think l picked up enough to go try out the tips. Thank you for sharing them 💕
Hello mam.. your videos are very excited and excellent..I like your videos mam
Thank you so much 🙂
Another awesome tutorial 😊 Are the pastels, soft pastels?
Thank you so much, @patriclop2pl! I'm so glad you liked it! And yes, the pastels I use are soft pastels.
WOW!! What a very helpful lesson. I’m new to your channel. Just found you today. Definitely subscribed.?
Didn’t mean to put a question mark at the end of my previous comment
Yay! So glad you’ve become part of the family Betty!
How do you do this with a paint brush?
💓👍👀 2/24/22
What is that blending tool at minute 22:33? I wish you had showed a closeup.
That was a shammy cloth (the kind used to dry cars). I find a little piece is a great blending tool for smooth surfaces. :)
🤟

Isn't it drawing? There is no paint
Many people think that painting with soft pastels is "drawing" because it's a dry medium. But what makes work like mine considered a "painting" is the fact that large blocks of color are laid down to cover the surface rather than linear mark making (like a sketch or drawing). Hope that helps.
Thank you, I really love the tip about the wet sand! I'm curious if you've done a full review of the 500 series charcoal paper? I really like unsanded papers and am curious about how many layers it holds and how it compares to other unsanded papers. Have a blessed day!🙌💕🧁
Thanks and I need to do a review on the 500 series charcoal paper... it actually works quite well for pastel painting.
@@monetcafe Wonderful, I'll make sure to order some 🙌💗 I always enjoy a review 😍
woww it's help's me much...thank's mommy
thank you! it was very useful!
