Can you do a tutorial on how you do skin tones/shading? Like, how you know which colors to use in different spots and what colors to use for them to not look awful when blended together?
he’s basing the placement of the colors on their values (how dark or light a color is) like he wouldn’t place a very light color somewhere where he wants shadow. and plus complementary colors, when mixed together make a black, so for example he wouldn’t place a purple right next to a yellow unless he wanted that area to look very dark. just learn about how different colors blend together and values.
I remember him saying in one of his vids that he kinda just puts them where he feels they should go, there’s no certain order he just picks a color he’s feeling and if you don’t like how a certain area is looking u can always scratch it off and do it again but better bc you’re the artist ❤️
Yes, the general rule is playing with the value.. With this, you can certainly play with every color combination you like, but ultimately the colours in his works are based on what he likes so that's the reason his works looks unified
OH MY GOSH WHEN I FIRST GOT MY PASTELS FOR MY BIRTHDAY I SAW A PIC OF THIS EYE ON GOOGLE IMAGES AND IT WAS THE FIRST THING I EVER MADE WITH PASTELS. I DID'T KNOW THAT WAS YOU. IDK WHY I AM SO EXCITED
I'm so fascinated on how you haven't done any sort of rubbing to smoothen anything out and layer the oil pastels instead. Truly impressive. Really enjoyed this
i blend with tissues when i saw how great you are i started looking at my art and just realized how i have been blending oil pastels with my fingers and tissues and people just draw with them they make it look so easy like i'm shook O.O
Same I also blend me tissue but I think that’s another technique for other kind of art. His art is amazing but it is actually very difficult. Also if I try doing thing then I will run out of my colors in just 2 days.
its good to know that theres another person who blend oil pastel like that. I feel ashamed of myself after someone laughed at my technique and eventually stopped doing oil pastel arts.
No this isn't the same thing you get at Pizza Hut. Those are wax-based crayons while these are oil-based, which blend more smoothly (but also are more susceptible to damage to the picture afterward).
Thank you so much for all of the help. I have been so frustrated by this medium and how to get decent results. You showed me that I need to loosen up and play so much more. Be brave and dive into the process. I also love the scratch out technique. Whole new world. Love what you are doing and your videos are so entertaining and a joy to watch.
I’m blown away. I never knew how wonderful pastels are. I couldn’t understand how you could make details with a thick crayon. I lot of layers. Love the scratch tool. Going to try. I just got a few trails from my sketchbox
If I remember right the oil pastel stick was invented because Picasso wanted something better to draw with. He would paint walls and stuff and wanted an oil pastel stick for big areas.
It’s been 10+ years since I have touched my oil pastels. Real life and being burned out took art away from me. I watched this because I want to get back on that horse. You’ve made me so excited! I LOVE color! Thank you!
I love and adore and appreciate this video. It’s definitely inspired and aided me in this time of quarantine. Oil pastels are a new medium for me! And thank you so much for sharing ❣️ I look forward to more videos
You're a great teacher! I found a bunch of oil pastels in my kid's room recently when they decided to clear out the clutter. Your videos are giving me confidence that I can maybe turn them into useful art supplies that I can use. Your work is absolutely gorgeous.
@@BlackBeanCMS yes yes i've done the eyes for my painting already now I crave for your whole face tutorial. I didn't have the courage to do it myself I'm afraid I would mess up
Just picked up pastels (nupastels and oil) after years of hit or miss with watercolours and acrylics. This is the best, most comprehensive demo using oil pastels I've seen. You are great! I hope you makin some money.
My eye rocks!!! Wish I could put a picture. I just love your love for color! First try I nailed it. I can’t stop looking at. Ty Ty Ty for sharing your gift with the world!
Oh wow I'm so happy I found this! I have had some oil pastels in a drawer for the longest time and I've been hating them because I had noooo idea how to use them (I use gouache mostly) but I really do want to love them and add some texture to stuff ;A; THANK YOU!
Spent this whole video with my jaw on the floor! You are sooooo inspiring! During the pandemic I have been doing one or two, sometimes three, oil pastel pieces a day. I totally agree - staying creative is key to mental health during lockdown! So many new things I want to try after watching this! Now I need to go back and watch all your yt videos!
You are an AMAZING teacher! You make sense. I’m coming from the land of soft pastel and didn’t realize that oil pastels want to be used completely differently.
Thank you!!! I followed your excellent tutorial and I made an eye that is recognizable to sober people as an eye! Seriously, you penetrated the thick brain fog that was preventing me from understanding how to shade and blend these oily little sticks to make pretty stuff. Thank you!
right off the bat, i love the distinction of "this isn't the right or wrong way, it's just my way." that's an important one that i can certainly tend to forget especially when it comes to art.
You are a master of color theory ❤❤❤ I’ve been searching for some good oil pastels tutorials thank you so much for this, btw your work is absolutely stunning!!!!
Thank you for this video!! I just started learning to draw and I picked up oil pastels thinking they would be fun and easy, but I was really struggling with them. So after a couple days of frustration, I came to youtube, found this video, went "OH I GET IT NOW" and drew a lil postcard-sized practice picture that I'm really proud of, following along with you on the blue eye. Turns out i just needed to break my fingers a bit and really scrub in those colors! I've watched a bunch more of your videos now and I hope you keep doing them, your art is so beautiful and your style is so strong and unique! I love your use of colors :D
i found this vid bc im totally new to oil pastels, and im rly impressed by how good you obviously are at this. despite how you said to choose a random color, the colors you choose and place on every particular position of the eye feels like youre keeping in mind your values, as well as overall composition, of the whole piece. you certainly dont forget variety and keeping the viewer (of the piece, not the video; but the video, too) entertained, either, as you add in different colors every time you feel "there's too much of (a color) here for my taste." regardless of your simple sketches, both your eyes turned out amazing, and it really makes me think i should trust the process a little more.
Dude....you are an absolute genius with these oil pastels! You have renued my faith that my students absolute can create masterpieces with this product! Thank you!
NOT BORED! RIVETED! Thank you so much for this. This acrylic painter felt pretty lost with pastels, even though they kept nagging me to pull them out and try them...AGAIN. I finally feel I have a better path to making them work for me. You rawk!
idk what it is with me and eyes but i am ALWAYS drawing eyes! you have been helping me get out of my creative block with your videos. i have been subscribed for some time now just havent been on youtube in a while. i'm glad that i took the time to visit your page.
Holy God, you’re inspiring! As a gift from my son for my 50th BD, I got myself a set of oils pastels as something fun and new. I’m a ceramic artist currently, and have worked with nearly everything under the sun in my life, but NOT oil pastels. I came here to find tips and found you. You inspire and make things look gorgeous in seconds. I’m starting a painting now and have confidence thanks to you. THANK YOU for sharing your gift! I plan on watching all you have shared. It’s fun to keep trying new things at all ages. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🙏🤜🏼🤛🏾
love that "this is not the right way or the wrong way, this is just my way" comment. so many youtube artists always talk like they're the be all end all and it's super frustrating! This was incredibly helpful, though, too- it really makes me want to pick up a pack of pastels for myself and go at it hehe
I've been working in oil pastels for almost ten years but never blended them together. Very much liked your video and your art. Thanks much it's a great introduction to the leap that is mixing pigments. Keep painting
I tired oil pastels for the first time…was cramming to finish up my final for a drawing class, and I ended up rubbing off the skin of the back of my finger from intense blending 💀 Overall, would try it out again! Got great critiques, and finished off the term with an A🤟 PS: I’ve now watched your reviews for oil pastels, and I came to realize that my first attempt at oil pastels unfortunately came from “SHE WHO SHOULD NOT BE NAMED” brand 💀💀
I love how you blend the colors on their faces. I've seen art like this before. Does this art style have a specific name? Lol and Im commenting before watching your video.
I've been quarantined too long but on the plus side, I've renewed my interest I fine art! Besides discovering that I now quality for a senior discount at Michael's, I have discovered the BEST teachers are on TH-cam! I really like this channel because of your calm and no nonsense technique with a bit of humor thrown it! I actually learned something new with oil pastels color blending! Keep up the good work.

Recently found you on TikTok and just love your artwork, and so delighted to find even more of you and your artwork on TH-cam!!! Watching you create is the best anti-depressant!!! And the glimpses you give into who you are, which make you real and relatable, are the cherry on top!!!
Seeing you use the crayola instead of the expensive oil pastels is so great, cause I was over here feeling like I was never gonna make great art cause I can't get the expensive stuff right now like all those other artists on youtube. I was feeling like just giving up on the oil pastels all together, but you showed me that I can make great art without breaking the bank. And your use of color is something I havent seen much of in other videos, its so inspiring. I love your style of blending too. thankyou so much.
Jeez. This is the first time I’ve seen this guy’s tutorials and I swear I blew at my iPad within 5 mins, trying to remove the pastel fragments. That’s when I realised he was so damn good I felt like i was there - so I subscribed... ;)
I've always loved art but fell out of touch with it for a long time. In January, I started a coloring addiction and went bananas buying coloring books and art supplies. I mean, I was decent in high school drawing still life and portraits but its been so long. This is the style of art that inspires me and motivates me to create. I bought coloring books to practice for my own art but now I'm scared to mess up the expensive coloring books with random color that doesn't work out. So, I've been watching random videos on blending color for a fantasy style. The layers just kept going. I'm a fan of yours now. Can't wait to see more.
This really makes me wanna use the set of oil pastels I've had lying in my room for about five years 😂 what type of paper would you say is best for oil pastel? Xx
You are an excellent instructor! I'm old and gray but I'm going to try to take my nemesis...EYES!!! I'm so glad I found your tutorial! Blending WITH eyes!!!! Yay!!!
i just came home from purchasing oil crayons (i think that's what we call them in europe) and found your channel. thank you for a lovely tutorial - so interesting! subbed quickly!! would never have thought about scraping...good god i love the internet haha! that'd be a great technique to add texture in eyebrows! and don't worry about video quality/equipment, it's the content that counts and it's lit 🙂
You're such a good teacher!! Its my first time with oil pastels and I can honestly see me getting good at it thanks to you!!! Please make more videos. Edit: wow just found your tik tok and Instagram. How could I have not found you before 😝 please dont delete any of your videos. Also yes subscribe and followed. 🤗

it’s refreshing to see a professional artist using crayola pastels. i’m used to so much pretentiousness surrounding which brands people use.
frfr it shows that you can use pretty much anything to make art you dont need fancy materials
Ik this is old but i use Pentel, theyre old af though ive been using them for like 3+ years.
Get over yourself and use whatever brand you want. They're fucking sticks
Agreed! In my opinion, it doesn't matter what brand or kind of material someone uses, all that matters is that they're happy with their work ❤️
The water soluble ones are cheap and good for practice even if you're in university

Oil pastels blend together almost very easily so as long as you know your shadows and highlights you can use any dark or light colour to your choice

@MajorBirdeaux for me, blending oil pastels with fingers or stomps makes my art dirty and it struggles me doing that >_
I hope you started again. Your art is art... be proud, don’t care what others say, and just start doing it... ;)
i love that he uses crayola- proving you dont need expensive tools to create great art
I HAVE BEEN LOOKING LITERALLY EVERYWHERE. I FINALLY UNDERSTAND. I CAN MAKE COLOURFUL DRAWINGS. MMMMMMMMWAH!!! I LOVE YOU SOOO MUCH!!!!
Can we just be happy with the fact that he did all that masterpiece only with basic crayola pastels that you could get for free from any Pizza Hut 😂
No this isn't the same thing you get at Pizza Hut. Those are wax-based crayons while these are oil-based, which blend more smoothly (but also are more susceptible to damage to the picture afterward).

I did the same 🤣😂
YES🤣
Amazing and unique process from an instantly likable artist!!! Thank you now I don't feel as frightened of mixing color as I did before!!!!
hey, what are the pastels you are using? Mine are shit comparing to these ones. I am very curious. Cheers :)
I've always loved art but fell out of touch with it for a long time. In January, I started a coloring addiction and went bananas buying coloring books and art supplies. I mean, I was decent in high school drawing still life and portraits but its been so long. This is the style of art that inspires me and motivates me to create. I bought coloring books to practice for my own art but now I'm scared to mess up the expensive coloring books with random color that doesn't work out. So, I've been watching random videos on blending color for a fantasy style. The layers just kept going. I'm a fan of yours now. Can't wait to see more.
This really makes me wanna use the set of oil pastels I've had lying in my room for about five years 😂 what type of paper would you say is best for oil pastel? Xx
I just used normal printer paper and it came out great xd.

@@anatellez4102 nope printer paper any paper worked for me
this is late but I use watercolor paper.

You are an excellent instructor! I'm old and gray but I'm going to try to take my nemesis...EYES!!! I'm so glad I found your tutorial! Blending WITH eyes!!!! Yay!!!
Me watching him draw the eye: oh wow that looks really good.
Him changing it every second:
Me: ._.
i just came home from purchasing oil crayons (i think that's what we call them in europe) and found your channel. thank you for a lovely tutorial - so interesting! subbed quickly!! would never have thought about scraping...good god i love the internet haha! that'd be a great technique to add texture in eyebrows! and don't worry about video quality/equipment, it's the content that counts and it's lit 🙂
You're such a good teacher!! Its my first time with oil pastels and I can honestly see me getting good at it thanks to you!!! Please make more videos.
Edit: wow just found your tik tok and Instagram. How could I have not found you before 😝 please dont delete any of your videos.
