another inspiration piece by Frank Stella 

thanks as always Minna! After this episode I realize I still have so much to learn.

Ha ha , it's like learning how to ride a bike all over again. ❤

😮

I think it would make fantastic scribbles that way!

thanks! will have to do tests.

Thanks for tip. I need to try it. I love experimenting.

Thanks for watching!

great idea!

I apologize that this video was not more informative re: pastels. Back to the drawing board!

I still enjoyed it. Thank you.

Yes I watched that! Great unbelievable results.

I'm going to try the pan pastels, too!

Thanks so much! 🙏💖🙏

🙏💖

I watched a great demo by Yeates Makes with pastels. The results are unreal!

Yes Mark Yeates explains the process very well! Glad you saw his video.

Thanks, I was wondering how to do that!

Yes, me too ❤

That's a great idea!

thanks so much! I know his style of work is not for everyone. It can be rather "difficult".

I would love to be an assistant in his studio!

@@artwhisperer88 I’d work for free, and live in my car. I worked with him for a very short time on a project in the 80s. I was museum staff, so I was paid.

@@superfly2449 you were so very lucky!

Thanks so much!

I got the hang of it here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qTt0Hs9QT48.html

@@artwhisperer88 I will watch this next!

@@artwhisperer88 oh, also - my late Aunt and her husband owned a Frank Stella sculpture and a print. Love his work.

I finally figure it out! Thanks to my viewers suggestions. Please watch ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qTt0Hs9QT48.html

Thanks mate!

Thanks so much!

thanks as always Carol!

thanks so much!

You'll be surprised at Mr. Stella's latest work, they are really out there, really wild and crazy, that's why I love it.

I want to encourage you to explore, not necessarily do what I am showing you. Every artist has their own wavelength.

I made a mistake, still learning how to do this! I pulled it off in a later video ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qTt0Hs9QT48.html

But I can't leave well enough alone. You should know that by now! It felt like getting lost in the woods and trying to find my way out. And besides, who gets to decide what's "needed" and what isn't?

I agree. I often find myself wanting to say, “stop now,” when I watch print videos.

As to who decides, it’s subjective, I guess. It’s also a question of finding balance and depth. I just think it was better and had more depth before the last layer of hand painted fill.

@@minnahumble2294 I like this piece though, it is a learning piece. These are the pieces that I keep for myself as reference. If I always decid e to play it safe there is no point in having a teaching channel.

Yes. I agree. Mr Fulton is very a talented artist with much to offer people (art afficionados and amateurs, like me). I like hearing his own critique and I should’ve posted my comment as a question because for me it’s interesting if there is a dialogue about the finished piece. I also like hearing his thought process as he works. It’s pretty enlightening. Great channel.

not in this case, my plate is stuck on a sheet of plexiglass and moving it is a real pain ! I want to keep the borders as even as possible, but that's just me. 😎

Hi, AW, you can draw with pastels on anything. Scrap paper included. I like to use brown craft paper, the type with lines. The two sides give different effects. But I have tried all kinds of paper. Butcher paper works well too…. Then transfer it to the plate by rubbing. It gives really lovely results, and the peculiar thing is once you have transferred them to the plate they do not rub off on your hands and will transfer with the original texture of when you first drew them! One of my favourite additions to the other mediums I use. You can also use charcoal in exactly the same way. You get exactly what you draw too as effectively you transfer the image twice, so you do not have to worry about reversal. Directly drawing on the plate is not that great, and you risk damaging the surface. I think the results are very like the same look as lithography. You can also make marks very expressively and the plate will catch it all when you transfer the image. Clean up with oil is of course very effective afterwards.

@@lindyashford7744 thanks for the tip Lindy! Looks like an exciting addition to my list of tools. I'll have to practice on my little plate (5 x 7) first.

I do think your print is in the spirit of the inspiration piece. My favourite however in this session is your third print, the ghost of a ghost. Lovely colours.

Yes, that's the way to do it. Surprisingly the colors are more intense when done this way.
