  • Hi, loved your work, may I ask you a question? I'm painting on a pasteboard, using only white soft dry pastel and pencil colors. So, like I so in your video, you used white pastel to give light in the eyes, in my drawing I can't make that pop, it's like the pastel fades in the dark color of the eye. Funny thing is that yersterday in my other painting I was able to give the light in the eyes, I really don't know why I can't repeat it. Help please!

  • @2909ism

    Your problem is pancil collors. They have kind a oil iside. Like oil pastel.. try to collor small surface with pencil collor, then on top of that try adding soft white (or whatever collor) pastel, and it just won;t apply. Its because small amouny of oil inside the structure of pencil pigments. So the solution is to use soft pastel (like your white soft dry pastel) collors in a rough drawing, as detailed as you can, an use pencil collors LAST, for small details.. on finishing.

  • @spirkox Dont use pencil collors as a base for dry pastels, because they willl just slip over the pencil leaving nothing behind. So work with dry pastels as long as you can..an use pencil just on top, for finishing, or... leave empty space without any collor and in finish add dry pastels on that space (its dificult)

    I hope this was helpfull

  • are those oil pastel? or soft pastel

  • @baloots4ne1 what spirkox trying to tell you is 101 % is correct..we have a same technique according on what he explain here...just hold any picture you want to draw, much better if u post it to the wall or in easel, just remind you do not sketch while the photo in on the table, you look will be vary..copy exactly the size of the eyes the line if. and the rest,,,just copy what exactly u will see....but careful about the eyes, eyes is the key to likeness

  • direct blending is very nice, but in an expensive brand of pastel, i use dry brush, dust..

  • amazing and... um sexy

  • lol asian.
