Once I finished drawing and coloring it, was amazed by how neat and realistic it looked, thank you. (I'm a kid)
I'm glad it's working for you! 😊
Thank you for posting this. I'm new to pastels and found lots of very useful tips in your commentary. Can't wait to have a go myself.
Glad it was helpful!
I couldn’t agree more with the details!
Amazing as always: artwork and tutorial. Thank you so much!
Thank you 😀
Super tutorial Kirsty very informative thankyou
Beautifully done Kirsty!
Thank you! 😊
Lovely Golden Retriever... so cute ! well done !
Thank you 😊
Gorgeous dog the background is beautiful color goes perfectly with dog
Thanks so much 😊
Excellent. My personal preference for tutorials is to see an inset image of the reference photo while the work is being done but as an absolute beginner to this medium I have enjoyed and learned from this. Thankyou.
I would love to put both (the finished art and the reference photo) but there is only limited space!
If you are a member on Patreon, I provide the downloadable reference photos so you can open them alongside the tutorial or print them out if you wish 😊
I love that you do all types of medium for art. Can you hint at when you may be starting a Patreon for tutorials, cause I will definitely be signing up!
Thankyou, I'm glad you find them useful! 😊
I'm not 100% sure on the timeline yet... But it will be based around the amount of following I have
The time I will put in to Patreon has to balance out financially for me - so I can continue to spend time creating the tutorials - hopefully that makes sense!
But I definitely will be doing Patreon in the future, hopefully sooner rather than later, depending on my TH-cam growth and following 😊
Tnx for the tutorial. Really clear explanation. Love iT and the drawing also 😍
Thank you so much 😀
Wow🤩🤩
Beautiful work
Thank you so much 😀
Thanks for this amazing tutorial. You make me wanna buy pastel pencils & try this out 😅
My pleasure 😊
Fabulous!!
Thank you 😊
Great job!
Thankyou 😊
Great stuff👍
Thankyou :)
Thank you for all your tutorials! You have the best tutorials for using panpastels. Can you explain the use of the panpastel medium coarse and fine? They come in black and white but I never see any artists use them, so I can't figure out how they would be used
I actually have no idea! Haha
I should probably look into what they do but I also don't really know what I'd use them for either 🤷♀️
Beautiful art work. I'm staring my pastels journey and would like to know...can I use soft pastels as base instead of the pan pastels? Where I live it is almost impossible to get pan pastels. Thank you for taking the time to show us how to start! You're amazing
You're welcome 😊
You can use soft pastel sticks, but it is definitely much harder!
It's difficult to control how much pastel you are applying with the sticks, so you have to apply very light pressure and it can become very uneven! It's very easy to add too much pastel with the sticks which can fill up the tooth making it very hard to add pastel pencil on top
You can still use them, but it will take a lot of practice/blending to work out how much you can apply
If you are struggling to get Pan Pastels, there's a store called Jacksons in the UK which ship worldwide! I actually buy a lot of things from there and ship them to Australia because they are sometimes cheaper than the stores in my own country (so it's worth a shot!)

Pan Pastel also have a store locator online so you can check if they have them in a store locally to you

Hope that helps!
@@KirstyRebeccaFineArt Thank you so much...I'll take a look.
Kirsty, this is so helpful thank you so much! What colors of the pan pastel collection did you use for the sky here?
Thank you 😊
It was so long ago, I really can't remember!
But I think it was violet, pthalo blue tint, white 😊
@@KirstyRebeccaFineArt Thank you so very much!
Fantastic. I'm a beginner and don't have pan pastels. Would I be able to do this painting using soft pastels instead? Thank you.
Thankyou 😊
You can, just make sure you use them very lightly and blend them quite well between each layer!
Hi Kristy, I am wondering what fixative you use, or how you prevent smudging when supplying the drawing to clients? I used a spray fixative for pastels once and it ruined my drawing! 😢
Hi there!
Unfortunately, most fixatives cause more problems than they solve!
Your artwork can end up being darkened/discoloured or the fixative doesn't actually "fix" anything
Most pastel artists don't use fixatives for that reason
If you use the techniques and supplies that I use, there's no reason you need to fix your pastel paintings because there's very little dust fall off, it's archival/lightfast without it, and if you store it correctly and/or frame it properly then you won't have any issues 😊
What pencils are better: cathello or faber castell put pencils for a beginner using Pastels?
They are both great, I use them both equally 😊
What a gorgeous pup! This makes me want to bust out my pastels.
Thank you! 😊
You should!
ty6
I use maskingtape/film... so you can work even quicker on the background 😉
That's a good idea, I'll have to try that one day! 😊
Hi Kirsty,
What color pan pastel did you use for the base coat? I understood from the video that you chose a color slightly darker than the final details. I’m having a little trouble getting started with the base coat. This dog is similar to the one I’m trying to do. Thank you!
I'm honestly not sure (I didn't keep track of the colours for this one) but I'm guessing it's a mixture of Burnt Sienna, Permanent Red Extra Dark and Raw Umber 😊
@@KirstyRebeccaFineArt thank you! ❤️
Hi Kirsty which transfer paper do you use?
I use the Saral brand transfer paper sheets (but I'm sure there are better options out there, to be honest!)
I'd try and find one that isn't graphite based if you can 😊
Going to try this out this weekend because best girl Tess died last week😢🥺❤
Sorry to hear 😢
I hope you enjoy creating her portrait!
@@KirstyRebeccaFineArt thank you😊🥰
Which transfer paper did you use?
I think this brand is Saral but I actually recommend rubbing some Pan Pastel over the back of your reference photo, then tracing over the reference so the pastel gets imprinted onto the Pastelmat (it's the same effect as transfer paper - but you're using pastel instead because some transfer papers are a little shiny/slippery and can mess with your artwork 😊)
Hope that helps!
@@KirstyRebeccaFineArt thanks! I do have one problem with that method. When i do that, there will be inclines on the paper from the traces made with my pen. Not sure if im doing it wrong (using not enough pastel or just pressing too hard maybe)?
@@larissaderks4358 It could be a combination of pressing too hard and not putting enough pastel, but it could also be the type of paper you're using for the reference
sometimes using a thinner paper like tracing paper to trace your outline onto.. then use pans on the back of that can work quite well
If you want to get some transfer paper, try and find one that doesn't have graphite in it (the white transfer papers are usually okay but you may need the darker colours for lighter paper colours)
I hope that helps!
@@KirstyRebeccaFineArt thanks! I just print my reference on printer paper. Not sure if that’s a bad or a good thing tho.
This is so true, you need to have the correct paper, because, some papers, do not allow many layers, it's happen to me, it's very frustrating. I use the Fabriano paper, I don't recomended this paper.
Yes definitely!
I use Fabriano hot-pressed watercolor paper for some coloured pencil work, but not for pastel 😊
I just joined your Patreon and am extremely frustrated. I want to this dog you are doing now. This time last is of no help, too fast. So I don’t see this one there? Should I cancel?
