Soft Pastel Demo - Canyon Walk
Here's a demo of painting a canyon scene using soft pastels. I started out by sketching in my composition using a dark purple Great American pastel and an isopropyl alcohol wash to set it. Once that dried, it was time to play with soft pastels!
Supplies used:
*UArt 400 sanded paper
*Synthetic paintbrush
*Prismacolor NuPastels
*Soft pastels (various brands - I typically use Great American, Richeson, Terry Ludwig, Unison, Blue Earth, and Mount Vision)
*Isopropyl alcohol (you can also use water)

    Thanks for your video! I have a partially painted that has developed some bumps and ridges that I would like to smooth out. Do you think I should apply gesso to the areas first or just sand down the ridges without adding gesso? I would like to retain the texture of the canvas if possible. Thanks in advance.

  • @gideonros2705
    @gideonros2705 2 года назад

    I think sanding an acrylic gesso is waste of time. You really aren’t going to sand it because its such a rubbery surface. Thanks for sharing.

    • @meerabakshi2676
      @meerabakshi2676 Год назад

      I have not used liquitex gesso, but someday will give it a try. I love to do portraits and for portraits having such a smooth surface would help a lot. Once I got canvases pack of 6 that were too shiny and no color would stick to the surface and it took very long time to dry. Don't know what I did with those canvases. I might have thrown away! 😀 I did not know about gessoing at that time! Well, if that happens now, I would definitely try gesso!

    This tutorial is a few years old, but thank you so much for making it! Canvass texture is one of the things that irks me the most when painting, and I've been contemplating something like this for a while (especially after seeing the up charge for the barely smoother ones). Its a lot simpler than I thought, so it looks like I'll be trying it soon!~

  • @MANOFKENT149
    @MANOFKENT149 2 года назад

    Blick pastels are like gold, you just have to find them first. The only sure way would be to find an outlet in the US, but even that has it's limits, but I'd be prepared to pay extra with shipping. Unless anyone has a better option. What do you think, Melissa? I would get either a 15 or 30 set.
