Bethany, it's nice to come to your channel and watch you make such nice art after having to deal with such ugly subjects concerning our nation. Keep up the great work!
Thank you Bethany. You're videos and the information is greatly appreciated!! I'm just starting out. I'm learning a lot from your channel! Wishing you continued success! ~ Angelica
Hi Bethany, your video has saved the day as I was trying to take a pastel drawing to Gozo as a birthday present but it was way too big to carry on and too big for my suitcase...and then I found your video so was able to take the paper out of the frame and pack it up as per your video! So thank you so much it is amazing!
Hi Bethany, Love watching these videos and how you work all ends of the artists life. I was curious about the care and handling sheet you place in your paintings for the collector and could not find your blog post on this. Could you help me out? Thanks again for sharing your working process.
Thank you, Bethany. So helpful, instructions on care for pastel painting such a great idea to include with painting. do you attach such instructions on back of painting when hanging in a gallery? Ruthie K
Thank you again for a great and very informative video. My question is what kind of info do you send exhibits . Surely they would know how to care for the great pieces. All of this is new to me . Thank you for replying.
Yes, they do know! Sometimes they ask you to send any bio information about yourself or details about how the painting was created or the story behind the painting. Stuff like that. :) Thank you for watching and asking!
Well, I just emailed you about the care and handling sheet you mention. I guess this would have been the proper place to inquire. Love watching your videos and appreciate all your tips and advice!
Do you ship your sold paintings in the Airfloat boxes and ask for the box to be returned? Or do you build the cost of the Airfloat into the final price? Thank you. I use Airfloat and love them. So easy! So easy on the other end, too, once your artwork arrives at a show.
I never ever blow on my pastels and have a tray below my easel to catch any dust. I also only do wet cleaning in the studio so I don't disperse the dust. :)
Yes, I do! But when I ask, I always pay for the return myself so they aren't out of pocket. I include a return label on the inside of the box just as I do for exhibitions. :) Thank you for asking!

HI John! I will email you again! Saw that it didn't work out for you...
I had no idea! Thank you!
Happy to help!

I don't but offer them to my gallery contacts for them to give to clients who purchase a piece! :) Thank you for watching and for the comment!
Hi Bethany...thank you for the information. I’d like the crib sheet re the care of pastel paintings please. Sue
So helpful! Thanks for posting this video. Can you do a video on how to frame pastel paintings?
Great suggestion!
Could you do a video on how you got started getting your paintings in a gallery/exhibit? Also could you provide a pdf of your pastel care sheet?
Great idea! Thank you! Email me or use the contact form on my site here and I will send it to you! bethanyfields.com

Hi Bethany, can you provide information on where you purchase your boxes? Thanks so much!
I use boxes by Airfloat Systems! :)
Do you ship your sold paintings in the Airfloat boxes and ask for the box to be returned? Or do you build the cost of the Airfloat into the final price? Thank you. I use Airfloat and love them. So easy! So easy on the other end, too, once your artwork arrives at a show.
When I ship in Airfloat, I always include a return receipt so I can reuse the box. :)
How do you deal with pastel dust regarding toxicity as well as catching the remnant particles?
I never ever blow on my pastels and have a tray below my easel to catch any dust. I also only do wet cleaning in the studio so I don't disperse the dust. :)
Question for you! When you send a framed piece to a client do you request them to ship the box back or just for exhibits?
Yes, I do! But when I ask, I always pay for the return myself so they aren't out of pocket. I include a return label on the inside of the box just as I do for exhibitions. :) Thank you for asking!
