It was lovely watching you work. I just "met" you yesterday. Back for more today. :) Thank you for the encouraging & uplifting scripture.
Just wanted to add some info for anyone interested in oils. Golden’s site has some guidance about when one could possibly use oils and acrylics together. As another person noted, acrylics cannot be applied over oils because they will ultimately peel off. I’m not sure how that would be different with an oil wash because, as i understand it, the acrylics won’t adhere to oils. I think a better option for texture would be using cold wax with oils and applying them with a speedball roller and palette knife. Also, the cold wax speeds the drying of the paint, which would be done in a couple days. In the meantime, one can work on something else. I usually have several going at once, so that there’s always something that’s dry. The dry time is also valuable because it allows you time to study or observe what you’ve done, which invariably informs whatever is done next. Also, walnut oil is the slowest drying oil of the oils used. Linseed oil dries faster. Lavender Spike Oil (which is lavender oil) was used by the masters through today. It speeds drying, thins paint, and is a substitute for turpentine (it can be used to clean brushes). Invaluable information and products (including spike oil, which is use) can be found on naturalpigments.com (i have absolutely no association with the site beyond loving their products and the abundance of information they post about all mediums). I would also note for beginners that it’s important to ensure the oils are applied to a primed surface so it will bind. It’s also best to use separate brushes for oils and acrylics. Thank you for your videos. I’m enjoying them very much as i learn more about acrylics.
Beautiful work very informative.😊
❤!
Stunning painting! God bless you Susan.❤🙏
Nice video. ´thank you
Beautiful painting!
❤⚘️⚘️beautiful painting. Love the red color in the treeline at the back and that sun . Lovely red flower's. 😊
Beautifully painted , thank you ! .
thanks so much for sharing your art process, you have well invested so many hours in your art, is a delight to see you combine colors. Best regards!
wonderful technique, kudos!
Susan.. that painting is absolutely beautiful! ❤
My little secret i use wallpaper lining paper to paint on pastels works for oils as well love the channel ❤regards from over the pond
Wow, that’s incredible! 🌟
Marvelous ❤❤❤
Just sooooo pretty,and i love the poppies,my favourite flowers.The sun just peeking over the horizon is beautiful,and the warmth it adds as it hits the tops of the flowers even moreso.I really love watching you do these pieces of art.
Thank you very much
WOW!!! Is that chalk?
soft pastels
Love it!!!
Beautiful painting ! Lovely colors ! Thanks a lot !
I always learn something new from you. ❤. Thank you.
I purchased some pastels last year and even tried to get that glow, but with no luck. But this piece does not look too complex, so I am going to take it slow, watch this video a hundred times and hopefully achieve that glow. Thank you for breaking it down, so that even beginners can find success.
@@eloradanan1837 you can do it! I didn’t know anything when I first started painting with pastels so it’s all definitely learnable. And I learned virtually everything I know from watching online tutorials. Have fun, sweetheart!
Pastles rule but use a dust sheet lol
Beautiful color combo!
Thank you so much! I loved the worm glow of this piece. The underpainting really helped.
For those who cannot afford the nice sets of pastels, what colors do you recommend for this painting? Or cheaper pastels
I recently discovered a set of pastels made by colour block. They’re very affordable and quite effective. I used their 100 set and you can find it on Amazon.
"Lavender fields" never get enough😮😊 Thank you for what you do.
My pleasure!
Thank you for sharing ❤
I am glad to see you on my channel! I did not know that you do Water Color Painting!!! I do have the Insta Gram Channel. I have been missing your Videos.😢
I have not seen you in a long time. I enjoy your work so very much. I am glad that I was able to get you on my You Tube Channel!!!😊
Welcome back! 🤗🤗❤️😊
This is an excellent technique Susan. I got the Uart 400 paper and it seems to rough. I order a sheet of 500,600 and 800 for me to compare. I went to Blick and the only had 400 in stock so bought 1 sheet. This is a beautiful painting.
Thank you so much, @marytesta3003! I'm so glad you liked it! Happy Painting!
Wonderful demo, I’m primarily an oil painter who is becoming more interested in pastels and I really like this painterly technique.

🎵🎵🎵🔥🎸 beautiful work, another step forward
I was an elementary art teacher for almost 31 years, and using oil pastels were among my kids favorite things to do. I knew enough to help them, but I always did oil paintings. Awhile back, I had an accident, and have been unable to stand at my easel and paint my larger canvases, so I decided to try oil pastels. Well, it’s not as easy as you make it look, and I soon realized I was clueless about how to proceed, so I was happy to accidentally find you on uTube. I knew they washed off my hands, so I knew they were water soluble, so I naively started on my journey. I was scribbling something on a piece of paper, and started with a very abstract image, which ‘wept” so much that I had to tape my mouth shut! I have started a still life, , but……. It is not nearly as easy as oil painting. but I will get up in the morning and see if I have any alcohol. I didn’t mean to write a letter, but I wanted you to know how great full I feel to have found you. Maryann,
YAY!! Thank you! @maryannshaw-uc1ke Comments like this are part of why I do this. I love inspiring others, especially in their art journey! Thank you for your sweet comment!
