A different way of working with "dry" media. Did you know that you can blend chalk pastels, soft pastels, and charcoal with.. water?!! This was a game changer for me!

When I was in grade school in the 60s, my teachers used to keep a glass of water near the blackboard to dip the chalk in before writing important information on the board. That’s how the marks lasted longer than usual. To finally erase it, they would use a wet cloth or sponge. That’s how far back I learned that water definitely changes the quality of chalk/pastels.

It's neat to think about those days. I grew up in a transitional time period where, when I first started school, we still used traditional blackboards, but by the time I graduated high school, we were using whiteboards! Crazy to think about!

Try it with gum Arabic; a watercolor binder. It turns it into watercolor and stabilizes the pigments so you can do layers.

I recently saw a pastel artist use her prisma color nupastels with water for her portrait background. I have a whole set of those. I’m in the middle of doing a watercolor of a lighthouse overlooking the sea. I hauled out my nupastels and used a wine colored pastel on the little houses for an under painting then burnt sienna over the walls and burnt umber over the roof. I loved it! Some of it washed out but some of it stayed so I got texture on the walls and roof. It just looked more interesting. I’m going to be using them for this now.

I wish I never broke my shoulder last month, because it prevents me from painting with my right hand/arm. Someone suggested I try pastels with my left hand since it doesn't take much muscle action and now I'm learning a new medium, which is costing me time and money too. Although many my friends are clicking on my Amazon wish list and sending me supplies and books so I can learrn about this new medium. NOw I've found your channel and you've now created an art monster that wants to play with new toys. Damn I never should have turned on RU-vid to find videos about pastels. And you my dear are a bad influence to someoen who loves to create art. :) lol

I was just learning pastels and I was doing a drawing of the step pyramid at Seqqara. I wanted to do the rubble since it was very prominent in the picture I was working from. I just couldn't get the pebbly rubble the way I wanted it. Then I got the idea to use a chewed up bristle brush and water. I used my stumpy worn bristle brush by dipping it in a small dish of water then dragging it across the pastel block of the color I wanted, then "stamped" the wet brush on the paper, roving it around randomly. IT WORKED!! I continue to use this method on pebbly/rocky beaches and other things where I want a rubble look. I don't use pastel pencil for this. I use the soft blocks.

Derwent actually sell watercolours made out of charcoal. I want to try them some day, the colours are very muted that could be perfect for landscapes (Tinted Charcoal Paint Pan Set) from what I understand the China ink, especially the type that comes in a little block you have to rub with water and brush - is made of charcoal too. Not sure if charcoal is considered dye or pigment though, I think it's dye. So it makes sense to be the base of the China ink. I guess I have to Google that. But yeah, you could also add linseed oil to any colour powder and turn it into oil paint. Some of the oil masters were panting the first layer of their oil paintings with aquarelle. Perhaps will work fine with soft pastels too. Mixing different stuff is awesome hah.
@CautionArtistatPlay
@CautionArtistatPlay Год назад
I have been wanting to try the Derwent Tinted Charcoal Paint Pan Set too! It looks really intriguing!! I don't know if they use dye or pigment to tint their charcoal either. It's not something I have looked into yet. Hopefully, it's pigment based, so it has more of a chance of being lightfast.Thanks for the info about adding linseed oil. That could be fun to play around with, too! I agree. It's fun experimenting with things!

@CautionArtistatPlay
@CautionArtistatPlay Год назад
Yeah, I have used odorless mineral spirits with soft pastels, and it works. There are a few options out there. I love using OMS for oil and wax pastels where you can't use water to blend. For soft pastels, though, water definitely does it in a pinch, and it's a safe alternative to solvents. Thanks for watching!

Great video, I knew they were all water soluble but I've never actually tried it before lol. I see you have some of the derwent pastel pencils, are they softer then the pitt ones? I have never tried them but I also have the stabilo ones which are softer so wondering if it's worth trying the derwent ones?
@CautionArtistatPlay
@CautionArtistatPlay 2 года назад
I feel like they are somewhere between the Pitt Pastels and Stabilo as far as softness goes, if memory serves me correctly. I haven't done a full piece with pastel pencils for a while though so it's hard for me to remember the qualities for each. I do remember really liking working with the Derwent though.

I had never heard that pastels, soft pastels and charcol were water soluble! this is something amazing for me. Now then... its probably to have changes in there chemical composition, for add water? It will affect the colors of your artworks in the long term? I wonder that. I know, they are pigments, but, I'm concern about this.
@CautionArtistatPlay
@CautionArtistatPlay 2 года назад
I haven't noticed any changes in the ones I did in school. However, I'm not sure the long term effects. I will say, that it seems to be the general consensus with any regular water-soluble media, that if a pigment is lightfast it won't fade with water, however, if it's already prone to fading it will fade faster if watered down. But unfortunately I can't answer this 100% for sure.
