A Pastel portrait demonstration by place du tertre artist Agnes .mpg 

The portraitists of Montmartre are drawing everyday.There is no time to make mistakes.Agnes is a serious Pro,and there is much to learn from her pastel technique.Thank you for your comment.

Thank you for this commentI just found her today , I Guess I Will apply same principle as you and I wille continue to watch her Artist rendition until I stop picking up a new hint. God bless you for the beautiful observacion When I Saw the eyes how fluid and Fresh it's beautifully done 👌 I was saying the same thing. Wow

Thank you for your kind words Scott.Indeed, time flies! Most of the portraitists who have featured in my videos are still working at Montmartre,including Agnes.We are not getting any younger but the magic of the place du Tertre will always live on.Covid has affected everyone this year but restrictions have been lifted and hopefully things will be back to normal before long.Best wishes to you from Montmartre!

The fact that your art is created on the street,does not reduce the value of your work.I've seen truly great portraitists in nearly 40 years of time spent drawing 'tourists'.Tourists are human beings.They all have behind the eyes a spiritual reality.I am not drawing souvenirs,and the best of us are searching to de-mask the sitter.And when you manage ,in a few minutes to capture the man or woman behind the mask ..and everyone who is a spectator is saying " very good" etc...there is no way the client can impose their "image" of themslves on you.If you want to make money,it is not a good idea to be an artist.Most artists died poor .Even Rembrandt. Van Gogh sold one painting.he was supported financialy by Theo. his brother .Read his lettters to theo and you will realize that this man who had a passion for art that neither ridicule or poverty could kill.I want every kid who is dreaming of 'starving in the attic studio' ,getting the the girls and one day becoming famous and rich...this is hollywood crap.If you are prepared to work and work and work,be prepared to live on next to nothing through cold winter months,if you can handle being treated like a beggar when you are trying to get someone to sit down and pose, don't give up.If ,however,this 'street life' is killing you then leave it.If you don't enjoy the ups and downs and only want the best day to happen every day,leave it.Only passion,real passion and dedication will give you the strength to climb whatever mountain you wish to climb.Rememeber ,though,you have only one life.Try to live your dream.

Davy Lim That was an excellent and insightful comment you made. 👍🏽

@@DavyLimvideos i applaud you sir.

Davy Lim I appreciate what you said, but I still hope that artist will not at least worry about food or shelter when they draw... I don’t think it is necessary to prove true passion of drawing by suffering from no food or shelter. It is too crucial to artists!!
