Hi Emma. This is Mary Anne from Southern California. When I saw your first (stationary) image, I knew I had to see your videos. I live in a motorhome, too. She’s 40 feet long & about 8 1/2 feet wide! I’m working on turning her into my art studio. Seeing you has given me a strong push. And I also have several fur babies: 2 small dogs & 2 cats. They’re my family. I am looking forward to watching all of your videos. Thank you.
Hi Mary Anne! So great to hear of other artists in other parts of the world having similar ideas! We've spent the past almost 2 years living in ours. She sounds a lot smaller than yours! You can definitely have a good studio in there. Thanks for visiting my channel here and good luck with your studio transformation!
Aww what a way of life !😍 free spirits👍 love your partners guitar playing too! X
Thank you Lynn! Lucky to have a free jingle/soundtrack writer :-)
So interesting and relaxing to watch!!! From the quality of the work I would not have expected that you work in a motorhome because we tend to assume that great artists have big spaces, but you do it so well and make it look so charming. Keep up the amazing work!!!
I'm spanish. Very beautful country. Thank you for your videos Emma!!!
Una vida pacifica cuando encuentras la persona para compartirla, un abrazo!!!
Gracias Janet! Un abrazo :-)
Livin the dream! Awesome. Your art is amazing
Oh! I love it so much!!!
You are wonderful , all the best to you!
Good guitar playing! Excellent artist! 💖💖
That's amazing 😍
Your house on wheels is adorable! What a free and easy lifestyle! I too have a very small studio space so I love to see how other artists deal with that. Your work is beautiful.
How inspirational. Thank you for such a beautiful video! 🎨☀️
Thanks for watching Angelica!
Emma, I am so impressed by your use and organization of your creative studio space! The depth of your work is breathtaking taking. So many Pastel artists prefer to keep their art extremely stylistic. My grandfather taught me that there can be a world for a style between the two. He also told me to allow my subject dictate the style I should use. Your work, your style is so inspirational...Thank you!!! In this troubling time, it is so wonderful to find an artist who makes my soul sing with joy!😊
Hi Kathleen, what a lovely comment. Small spaces train you in being organised. I do look forward to a bigger studio some day soon hopefully :-)
what a wonderful life and good luck with your patreon channel..I will consider joining,,I am sure it will be excellent
That was really well done Emma!! Good luck with the new venture on Patreon.
Thanks Jim! Hoping it will grow into something really good!
I loved this little glimpse into your life and studio on the go. Looking forward to tutorials on your Patreon channel.
Thank you Joan! I'm really looking forward to sharing lots more and hope the tutorials will be very useful to you :-)

I signed up for your Patreon. I recommend it to all. Excellent videos. I love your way of teaching pastels. Nothing left out. Fantastic. Have a wonderful week.
living my dream life
Hi Emma! I admire you so very much! Your paintings are breathtaking! :) P.S. I just became your patron on Patreon! Can't wait to start learning! All the best, Kate

Emmo I'm also a painter, I have to write something you are just beautiful I like to watch your youtuby and you are often disarming I can not speak English very well and so we do not talk but you are definitely a great inspiration for me .
Thanks Zdenek, your English is very good :-)
Hi Emma, I’ve just discovered your channel and I love it! It’s exactly what I’ve been looking for. I suffer from a condition which doesn’t allow me to do art for long periods of time and pastels, as you say, are ideal to pick up and put down. I’ve completed a few portrait pieces and animal portrait pieces but they were more trial and error than knowledge based about techniques etc. I’ve learnt so much from just watching the video of the little girl you uploaded about a year ago. It was beautiful, by the way, and I love the way you teach. Your voice is very easy to listen to and your teaching style is very calming:). I’m going to watch all your videos and maybe will follow you on patreon. Are your lessons on pardon in real time? Thanks for sharing your tips and expertise. I’m looking forward to learning:)
Hi and thank you for the amazing feedback! I think pastels sound perfect for you as I love how immediate they are. Of course there's a learning curve like with anything worth doing, but it can be fun to see yourself progress.
Definitely have a look through all the videos I have here as I also have some real time videos to get you started. The videos on Patreon are mostly in real time except when I'm doing something extremely repetitive, then rather than cut it all out, I speed it up by a small amount. Most of what I make is in real time, but there is a speed painting video to accompany each project.
Happy pastelling!
Emma
Hi Emma, thanks for your lovely reply😊. Take care
Great work love it. Just started in pastel and enjoying them so much. Will be joining your patreon . Can you tell me what the containers you store your pastels in are called? Many thanks Emma.
Hi Janet, I see you already joined me on Patreon, welcome! If you visit this link you'll see a whole video about my storage containers. th-cam.com/video/0IyRop6PwQg/w-d-xo.html
Hi Emma, I realise this is an old video but it seems so perfect to find this considering my current plans for the future.
I would love to be able to make and sell my art whilst on the road (aiming to buy a camper van). Did you find it difficult to package and send off your art from a van? how did you manage to scan your drawings if you did? And finally can you think of some ways besides online to market and sell your art on the road? I had thought of attending craft fairs for this purpose. Sorry for the many questions and any help is much appreciated 😊thank you.
Hello Emma, I like your work and video's. I also have not much space in my 'studio'. I see that you use such handy boxes for your pastels. Can you share with me where I can buy that boxes.
Hi Tjaard, the boxes are made by Prym. Search Prym craft storage, they have a website but you can also find on Amazon, Ebay etc. Another video showing these boxes better th-cam.com/video/0IyRop6PwQg/w-d-xo.html
@@EmmaColbertArt
Thank you, Emma, I was able to buy the boxes in the Netherlands. So I'm going to use them to preserve my pastels by color.
I would love to learn more from you. I don't have soft pastels, only nupastels, pan pastels, and pastel pencils. Would I be able to use the same or similar techniques with those supplies through your patreon channel?
Yes a lot of the techniques I'm teaching are about colour and how to build up the painting looking at composition, backgrounds as well as the main subjects. I don't think all Patrons are working with the same materials as me, although you will of course find it easier to work along if you are. If it's tips to apply to your own work that you're after then I would say you can still learn lots.
Bit jealous now 😂
Hi Emma, I enjoy your video's and art work. What type of Video camera are you using to produce these lessons? Thanks Izzy
Hi Izzy, I started out with a very old camcorder years ago for the first timelapses. This video was done a few years ago now using a Go Pro. Now I use a good quality Panasonic camcorder.
@@EmmaColbertArt thanks
hi, thanks for this nice video :) may I ask you, where did you find those stackable trays in which you store your pastels? greetings from Italy, Luca
Hi Luca, thank you. You can see all about my storage trays at th-cam.com/video/0IyRop6PwQg/w-d-xo.html.
@@EmmaColbertArt thank you so much :)
Those pastel containers are awesome! Where do you get them from?
They're made by Prym and are actually craft storage. You can see more about them in this video. Best bet is to google search to find where you can purchase
th-cam.com/video/yZ16ATbhTl4/w-d-xo.html
I have googled them. Not available in Australia 😔
Where did you get those nifty containers that you have your pastels in?
The containers are made by a company called Prym. They're actually for craft but they work great for pastel. You can see more about them in this video th-cam.com/video/0IyRop6PwQg/w-d-xo.html
Prym have a website but also try googling these storage boxes or Amazon sometimes have them too.
Emma I’m so bummed... your $30 month Patron Sold Out ?
I hope your able to add me ?
Aww Renee! I'm totally shocked that all 3 were snapped up by this morning! I'm guessing that people won't continue it every month so these slots will open up again I bet. But if you really wanted this for this month I could squeeze in another :-) Let me know and I'll add a 4th slot
