  • Just in time for Spring! In this video demo I show you how to use the power of mark making with pastel to paint a bird's nest. A nest is the perfect subject to practice and utilize a variety of marks.
    This video was originally released for my Patreon Page for our exploration of Mark Making with pastels. Check out my Patreon Page for weekly videos and much more. / karenmargulis

    Ha ha ..... "think like a bird". I totally get that. So tell your camera "guy" that your subscribers say, "tweet tweet". ;)

    I’m always amazed by what appears to be a mishmash of color suddenly becomes so clear. Great demo of the different types of marks. It makes more sense to me now.

    Love the little nest! But... when looking at the referens photo and the perspective of the painting I don’t think the sky should be there.. sins you are looking almost straight down. Now in my brain, it looks like the sky is under the nest were the ground should be, tipping the nest over! Otherwise it’s great, and so much useful info! Thanks for sharing!!! ☺️ I love all your videos!

    • @KarenMargulis

      Thanks for your feedback! Yes for perspective it shouldn't be the sky but it could be the hint of distant blue green foliage! Thanks for watching!

    Excellent video. I learn something new with every video I watch. Not quitting at the ugly stage was number 1. Putting in all the shadow colors first...then building to the highlights. ❤❤

    You put so many layers round the nest itself but they did not go muddy. How did you do it? Did you use fixative?

    • @KarenMargulis
      @KarenMargulis  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for watching. I often use fixative to build layers but I didn't in this painting. The trick is to use a light touch until the end then press much harder for the final marks!
