Plein Air Pastel Painting with Susan Kuznitsky

Follow along with Blick Featured Artist Susan Kuznitsky as she breaks down her approach to plein air painting with pastels. Choose a sturdy easel to work from, then quickly sketch out your composition with big positive and negative shapes using a charcoal pencil. Lay in flat areas of color with pastels, then brush over the colors with a solvent to turn them into a paint-like pigment. Continue to add details and shadows, being sure to layer your lightest colors last.

Do you use any kind of spray to protect the painting when finished ?

We'll see if the artist has a reply based on her individual practice, but in general, a light coat of fixative is a sensible measure to control dust, especially in a frame using plastic glass, which attracts dust through static electricity. Most pastel painters try to avoid excessive use of fixative because saturation can darken colors an alter the image.

I use gambling solvent-free gel to paint with sennelier oil pastels and even with it with sennelier oil paint. It's better and safer because a lot of oils people use is really dangerous and people need to wear a mask. I've ordered a 2-pack 20x24 canvas and new gambling solvent-free gel but I'm a little afraid of the size of the canvas, makes me feel like buying more paint before painting on them. 5:37
