ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 ม.ค. 2025
- Come with me on a trip to the beach as I teach you how to paint a Tropical Beach Scene in 30 minutes or less. I've been enjoying the tiny painting series this month and while the paintings may be small.... the tutorials are loaded with pastel painting education.
In this lesson, I feature one of my FAVORITE underpainting products.... Golden Fluid Acrylics with a golden glow. It's perfect for landscape or seascape paintings.
So, grab your painting supplies and let's take a virtual beach trip!

I love the smalls. 🥰 it’s not so overwhelming,and I don’t worry about wasting supplies. Thank you for sharing your talent.
YAY!! Thank you! @karenleah1477 Comments like this are part of why I do this. I love insiring others, especially in their art journey! Thank you for your sweet comment! I agree. Sometimes a big canvas can be overwhelming! I like thise littles, too! Happy painting!!
please don’t listen to those people. we love to hear you talking 😍
Oh goodie!!!! Because I obviously can't shut up! LOL!!! Bless you sweetheart.
@@monetcafe Susan, I told Karen M the same thing about her videos: you talk because you are a teacher. By explaining to us your thinking you are scaffolding --building us a scaffold from your knowledge we can climb on-- and it is a very powerful teaching tool. I have an MAT and that was one of the first things I learned in teacher's college in my graduate program. Keep talking, your students appreciate what you have to say.--Thom
I started by looking up one of your videos that was on a subject that related to what I was currently painting, to play in the background while painting. Then, not wanting to touch my computer with pastel covered hands, just let it keep playing on whatever other random videos on your channel after that. Though the followup videos didn't relate to what I was painting, and though I only occasionally looked away from my painting to check the screen, I found that just listening to you describing your process was wonderful to keep me in a painter's brain. I hadn't planned on painting so long today, but just listening was inspiring.
Disclaimer: When I'm not in the middle of a painting myself I do actually WATCH your videos, not just listen. And I LOVE watching them. Just thought I'd better put that out there to be sure no one misunderstood my comment that I found even just listening while painting inspiring.
Well, that is such an awesome comment. I love that my commentary is pleasant for you and I'm so grateful that you also like watching my videos. Thank you so much for sharing that.
You are a wealth of resource information! Thank you!
Susan you are wonderful, great teacher, brilliant artwork... we love you, I love you just as you are. Your forever student Michele T. In Oregon. Blessings ❤🐕🙏
Beautiful videos. ! Calming voice ❤
Oh, thank you so much! I’m so glad you found it relaxing.
Wonderful! Thank you for sharing. I'm on my 6th day of painting every day for 20 minutes for 20 days. I've been doing 9 X 12, but I love the idea of tiny paintings. I think I'll try them.
Keep it up! Small painting is awesome!
I dont think you talk to much. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and your expertise. I have learned so much from watching your videos, Many many thanks.
Loving all your paintings.
Wish you could do demonstration

I really enjoyed the mini painting. Beautiful.
Thank you so much, Nancy!
Thank you so much I just found your channel and loved this video. I have ordered some soft pastels and can’t wait to learn. I also have tried to join your Facebook group.
Hi Sharon... I"m so excited for you and I just accepted your FB request for the Monet Cafe' group. Have FUN!
Thanks lov your work
Hi Susan…. I REALLY enjoyed watching you paint this. You continue to inspire me and I appreciate how much you share your talent and knowledge. ❤️. PJ
I love your channel! Thank you for sharing your talent, expertise and your experience 😊
You are so welcome! My Pleasure Joanne!
Hey susan i looked up the reason for the dark line on the horizon of ocean. I was curious also. The answer is were the land drops off making water deep.. there is no land close to the surface to reflect the light back up. Not sleeping at night?? Try singing hyms ( in your head so you dont wake up the one sleeping next to you😅) to the Father and to the Son. Its what i do and it relaxes the my brain in focusing on Him.
I love the idea of these cute little paintings and tell Jackson hes cute too😂

Praise Jesus! Thanks @jillcherrick3113! I can't help but shout praises to my Savior!
Lindo !!!
I have been waiting for this one! I have been so busy I have not had a chance to paint. Getting my taxes done will be easier when I have the reward of being able to paint.
Oh honey... I know what you mean. Just got my taxes done myself. Whew! Glad that's over.... now we can paint!
this is going to seem like a stupid question but what does it feel like using the pastels? i've never used them. it seems like it would be like chalk on a blackboard. the thought sends chills down my spine. really hooping it isn't like that at all.
Ha ha... I've actually heard that from others, and fortunately, no... it's not the same consistency as chalk. Quality pastels are much softer and buttery. There can be a bit of scratching sound if you are working on a sanded surface, but it's not the same sound as chalk on a blackboard. ;) Great question.
Love it! And thanks for sharing your story! I've been thrilled to find excellent instructors on Patreon like you Susan! My friends all remark how quickly I'm learning. Of course I can't help but think where I'd be if I'd had this level of instruction 23 years ago when I first discovered pastels...oh well, there's no time like the present right?! Love love love
Amen Melody! No time like the present! Keep learning and having fun!

Your videos have seriously helped , can u explain the purpose of under painting
Great question Deborah, and one I get all the time. This is a lesson from a 4 part series I have here on TH-cam call "Pastel 101". In this part I go over the reasons artists use underpaintings. Hope it helps!th-cam.com/video/SJ3crLW8lis/w-d-xo.html
@@monetcafe omg thank you so much I am learning so much from you ty
Absolutely lovely!!! Small is super pretty too ; )
How do you seal this medium so it doesn't drip
Hi Raye, I never spray fixative on my final pastel paintings because it darkens the painting. I sometimes use fixative during the working process, however, to darken and area or add a bit more grit by spraying fixative in specific areas. The workable fixative I use is Blaire Low Odor Fixative.
To protect my final painting for shipping or storing, I place them in a clear plastic bag I get from www.clearbags.com. I buy the bags a bit larger than standard sizes so I will have room for the painting and a piece of foamcore board cut to the size of the painting. Here is a video of my process:th-cam.com/video/4XD4SezFyBg/w-d-xo.html&t=209s
Susan, take care and rest well. I'd some anxiety issues and can't sleep at night a few years ago. Recommendation from psychologist : 1. Try some slow and deep breathing exercises before sleep. 2. Try some exercises, too. (I think when one is physically tired, one will sleep better =) 3. Do something you enjoy, just for fun. For me, art is therapy, it is healing.
Bless you sweetheart… I agree with your recommendations.
Too much advertising, bored 5 minutes in..
It’s a free video, and since this is my only source of income I think it’s understandable that I can promote certain things at the beginning to help me keep doing this for free. you can skip forward.
