They are both fantastic ( I actually thought they were the photos you were going to use for reference when I first opened the video), but I prefer the one on the light paper as it seems to stand out more which surprises as I thought the one on black would stand out better. Thank you for the demonstration.

I can't wait to hold my set of 36 'Emma Colbert Animal Collection' in my hands. I have been on the fence about trying soft pastels and have stuck with possible safer option colour pencils which I do enjoy. But I can't watch from the sidelines any longer. All in, unison pastels and pastelmat paper on order. And hopefully your example of diligence will rub off on me too, so that I will be delighted by the results. Thank you for your generosity in such lovely tutorials. I appreciate the time, care, excellence and willingness to share your expertise.

Wow how exciting! Dive right in, you will love them. It doesn't mean abandoning pencils either as you can combine the two. Enjoy!

Thank you Emma this was an interesting comparison. I enjoy working on black paper with colour pencil and have been wondering about using lighter paper. I can see from your study that the lighter paper gives a brighter glow whereas the dark paper is more dramatic. Both stunning. It is encouraging to see that you just have to stay flexible when working with a lighter/darker toned surface to achieve your desired results.

Thanks Melanie, yes it's still possible to get where you want just by altering what you do slightly. I enjoyed the darker paper a lot! Think I'll be repeating that :-)

What about using plain white pastelmat? Wouldn’t that be best? You could even do your own colour with a light wash of watercolour as the base

That's totally possible. But I was only going to paint 2 of these and took the opportunity to show how the warmth of the paper also plays a part. I don't use watercolour washes on my pastel works but I know plenty who do and I'm sure that would work too.

Beautiful painting. The color and quality of the paper and pigment really does make a difference. The darker paper definitely worked better for the subject matter. I have a question. Do you use a spray fixative on your finished paintings?
