In this lesson, Lyn will demonstrate how to look beneath the complex exterior to build the form first using different values. Complexity is then alluded to by using both negative and positive shapes.

She makes me want to invest in pastels now......my watercolor years may be behind me. What a wonderful teacher, and what dextrous and painterly 'marks' she makes! Another pastelist uses a trough created by attaching a 2 inch piece of painters tape at the bottom of the paper, bending it up at halfway to create that open pocket.

18:31 Rosemary Clark I don't use fixative. Once the work is finished I get it put through a roller (by my framer) with a covering of glassine to press the pastels into the surface. You could achieve the same thing with a stack of books over a couple of weeks. The work is the framed in general with matt boards under museum quality glass. If I wasn't framing, then they simply get placed between pieces of gatorbord with glassine in between each work and then clipped.

15:08 Rosemary Clark & 17:52 Paula Pratt Brands : I would always have Art Spectrum Extra Soft Tinted Whites (these come in 2 sets - a set of 6 cools another of 6 warms); Sennelier Paris Collection (120 half sticks) for brights and Terry Ludwig Intensified Darks. There's a whole host of others - Unison, Girault, Holbein, Richeson, Roche, Rembrandt, Great American - to name a few - that I regularly use. I've found over the years that as long as I have good lights, brights and darks I can do anything.

11:30 Rosemary Clark. Same pigments as in water color and oils, but very little binder

@lyndiefenbach7854 4 күн бұрын

40:22 Rosemary Clark Pastel needs to be used upright on an easel so that any excess dust can fall away. See my comment at 18:31 for what I do after completion

What about the pigments being absorbed by your fingers?

@lyndiefenbach7854 4 күн бұрын

I constantly wash my hands. Some use gloves but I find that I just end up with a glove full of sweat. There is a product called Gloves in a Bottle.

@@lyndiefenbach7854 thank you ever so much - your work is beautiful and I was so inspired by the way you didn’t blend it into oblivion - it was blended perfectly while still having strokes. Thanks again!
