[@calithilel5588]

You are so inspiring! I love your art, your personality and I love all the care you put into your paintings, people always look down on me for choosing art as my life path but when I watch your videos it makes me feel so much better! Keep up the good work!

This is just beautiful as always Colin, thank you. Tell me, are you using the smoother side of the Ingress paper on this project?

[@colin1940]

No I always use the side of the tooth, however the later Ingres paper sheets we supply in our packs does seem to have a slightly smoother touch. Thank you for your kind comments

Do you have any videos showing how you draw a picture as well as colouring it. Your artwork is amazing- I've never heard of pastel pencils before- now, I can't wait to buy some, you make it all look so easy and fun!
Thank you so much,
Please continue doing what you do best:)

Hannah's Colouring Creations We recommend the use of our ‘Square Drawing’ system for creating the line drawings we show at the beginning of each project. There are clips on TH-cam at the moment, just search for ‘Square Drawing’, but we are in the process of filming a new hour long programme which will be out soon both on TH-cam, our Facebook page and our website. Thank you for your kind feedback.

[@Hannah-xn4st]

Hi,
Thanks so much for getting back to me, will definitely check that out. I look forward to the new video as well!
I've only just found your channel and website and I look forward to signing up. I've always wanted to learn how to colour realistic animals and landscapes but always find most videos on TH-cam are sped up via time-lapse and as a result, are hard to follow, I love how yours are in real time, and explained really well! I never even new online art classes existed- they're a great idea!
I'd love it if at some stage you would do a tutorial for a Ragdoll cat (like my profile picture) and also a sloth!
I can't wait to get started with your videos!
Thank you once again:)

Amazing what do you use for reference for the robin and his/her plumage ?

[@colin1940]

MEH NAME I used three different photographs to complete this picture, two for the Robin, another for the rustic Handel I used my imagination for the snow and background, thank you for your interest.

Colin Bradley Art Welcome (= I've been drawing live birds recently and it's tough work. I'm studying art and they want first hand stuff they make us follow the rules before we can break them.
Are you an illustrator ?

[@colin1940]

No, I spend my time providing all the video art courses for our online art tutorials.

[@mehname8597]

Colin Bradley Art That's awesome I subscribed I find your videos really helpful (=

[@stefos6431]

Mr. Bradley, Is it me or do ALL the pastel artists I see portion out the color on the subject?

[@colin1940]

Thank you for your feedback

[@udohelmts3884]
