    Hi Alain. Looks like you haven’t uploaded to TH-cam in a year! I just purchased your online “expressive mark making” lessons. I love your style and look forward to more videos. I just can’t believe that you aren’t in the “k’s” for subscribers, and I think if you keep posting on TH-cam you will get there! Thank you for sharing!

    I love to see how Alain embellishes the colors from a somewhat dull picture onto his fresh colorful painting. I watch w/o sound to learn more visually watching what colors he chooses to use. Thanks for the lesson!

    Exactly what I’m looking for! Love the wonderful contrast of colors and how they came together together. Loved how you talked about the placement of pieces on the board. Loved how you talked and demonstrated the drawing and reasons you do the 30 minute cor study. Playing and experimenting with colors are things I really enjoy. Love how you talked about and demonstrated as you went. You talked about a neutralized color, warmer colors, cooler etc which is the same with acrylics. It doesn’t seem as easy to get the colors that I want with acrylics as with the pastels. I’m a beginner acrylic painter and it didn’t matter to me that you’re working with pastels. I loved working with pastels many years ago and plan to revisit those pastels. Glad I kept them!

    • @AlainPicard
      @AlainPicard  ปีที่แล้ว

      so glad you enjoyed this lesson. Yes, these concepts will translate to acrylic no problem. If you have some pastels, you should give them another try, great fun even for small works!

    Hi Alain, you are such a joy. I just stumbled upon your videos tonight. I started by watching your very informative videos on the different pastels and papers, and then your autumn tree demonstration. And now here i am on this tutorial. I was relieved to discover i had haplessly chosen a great set of starter pastels, that just arrived! You are very inspiring and i could listen to your cheerful calming voice for hours. Starting to get a bit blurry eyed though. Lol. Have to quit soon. You are a great teacher, thank you for sharing, i feel so much better prepared to play with my new pastels, i was a bit intimidated and will do some of these studies while i hunt down, or make, some of your recommended sanded paper. I feel like i am in art school! Way too much fun. I see a pathway now. I am hooked. Will go back and watch all your videos now. So glad i found you. Love these real time start to finish paintings. Thank you Alain.

What I want to know is why the colors you chose work so well together, and how to plan my own paintings that way. Thank you.

    Hi Alain, have only just found you and pastels - a good combination I think having binge watched several videos of yours this evening! One question please, what difference does it make to the background wash when you use pastel if you a) wash it with water or b) with alcohol or does it change how the pastel goes down afterwards? Thank you :)

    • @AlainPicard
      @AlainPicard  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I frame under TruVue AR glass or Museum Glass, and don't need to spray due to the sanded paper. Sometimes I use Lascaux Fixative for a final set spray and it works excellent, the only fixative I currently trust as a final set

They moved office/warehouse in the fall which likely set their production back in the short term, but in the long term they will be better than ever.
