What makes your videos better than others is (for me) that you constantly give hints about why you choose a particular color (warm, cool, near, far to start with). That's the most complicated part of painting and you are really helping.

Hi Karen thanks as always with your generous instruction. This painting is lovely...you are a genius with color progression. I also love spontaneous, free response painting sometimes. Just to dial in on the essence of what you want to say with a work of art. Great video!!

Great video! I often paint without a plan. Sometimes it's the only way I can paint -- too much planning & I start to lock up and doubt myself. My goal is to make my paintings - planned or not - look as cohesive as yours.

Just discovered you Karen. I live in Australia and have been painting pastel and watercolour for 20 years. Thank you for your great video it has given me a different way to start my paintings. I usually paint still life which I set up myself and have been very successful but I will try doing more landscapes now that I live in a coastal town called Yamba N.S.W. I will certainly be following you with great interest. Thanks again Jan Hudson

Karen you a wonderful teacher ,you are so easy to understand I'm a very newbie with pastel sticks and so anxious to learn it is because of you I finally "got it " with the values, I'm 79 and anxious to put what I learn to action. Know you are appreciated . I purchased a set of Mungyo pastels wondered if you are familiar with them and what you think of them. Thank you

Hi Karen, love your video! Just a question about something that always puzzles me when I hear a pastel artist mentioning it: why do you call this 'painting' instead of drawing?
@turalpiriyev
4 жыл бұрын
Hi Karen. I adore your videos. Thanks for your work and helping us. I was drowning before with charcoal and want to try colors. You told in your videos that the first layer must be darkest colors and only after you can put light colors. But I cannot do it, and this is exactly in opposite to charcoal. When I put dark colors, the light colors on it, is not visible. I see how nice you do it in your videos, but I don’t know what I am doing wrong. I understand that the reason can be: pastel quality (not enough bright) or paper quality (doesn’t keep other layers) or of course wrong technic. I use soft Rembrandt pastel and mi teintes pastel paper. Thanks in advance.

Can someone tell me if you use a new chunk of pipe insulation for new paintings? Does the insulation shred on sanded papers? Does the insulation pick up any of the pastel? Why doesn’t it just collect and spread the pastel?
@KarenMargulis
4 жыл бұрын
I do use a clean side of a chunk for each painting. The pipe insulation comes in ling tubes and is vey inexpensive but you can also put them in the wash if you want to reuse. I use medium grit sanded papers and the foam does not shred!

I use several small pieces on a painting.It doesn't shred on the sanded paper much.You will get the feeling as you go.I use it all the time.I get it at Lowe's or home depot.I tend to blend more than Karen.

A completely off topic comment from an ex-English teacher ; Thank You for pronouncing foliage correctly ! Mispronunciation throws me off and my attention starts to wander from the subject. __________ Now, about the fixative; It does say low odor. But I don't know if that means less toxic. When painting with oils, my solvent is called 'Odorless Mineral Spirits'. But I don't believe that the absence of a noticeable smell means that the solvent isn't giving off dangerous fumes. You don't seem to be wearing a mask or anything to keep you from inhaling fumes. And I can't tell how well or poorly ventilated your studio is. It all concerns me.
