Join me and fellow Monet Cafe' artist, Linda Bishop, as we tour the Mount Vision Pastel Company and get a personalized and behind the scenes tour where we learn just how soft pastels are made. It was indeed educational and FUN! In the video, I share the sets that are great for beginners as well as some of the best selling sets of pastels.

Makes me appreciate the cost of good pastels to see how much care and hand labor goes into making them. Very interesting!

I was blessed by my hubby with a full set of Mount Vision pastels including the 2 iridescent sets (424 total of beautiful, luscious pastels) and these pastels are even more beautiful in person!! I love working with them and I just have to add Mr. Kelly is a delight to deal with! Mr. Kelly I still don't know what the hell I'm doing with them but man I sure am having fun!! Every time I open my pastel box I'm like a little kid celebrating Christmas morning!

Mount Vision Pastels are creamy with extraordinary blending properties with a real "stay" on the paper quality. I bought the entire set many years ago from Dakota Pastels and these are a treasure!

Haha I love it! The little warning just in case, DON'T Eat your pastels :) I love your channel. I am new pastel artist, later in my life finally getting back to art after career and raising my son and your channel is really an inspiration. I love pastels so far and just ordered my first set of higher quality than the student grade I have now. Please keep up the great work and God bless.

I just acquired a new to me set of 100 on eBay. I spent the day swatching them out and adding them to my studio box. I love how creamy they all are. Not a scratchy one in the bunch.

Susan, I loved this. I was lucky enough to buy his complete set, all of them... I didn't leave my house for two days. I just broke them up and organized them. It was the most fun thing in the world. Carl is amazing to deal with and I received my pastels so quickly and they were all in perfect condition all the way from Fl to MN! It was great to see him in action! I hope you got some goodies for yourself? Thanks again!

This is awesome! I just got back into pastels after... 5 years of not touching it as I was busy with university stuff. And still love the Mt Visions, definitely one of the best bang for buck pastels out there. And the statement that it works well in all stages is so true. I managed to layer them on even pretty saturated areas.

A little late here but…… I have the Thunderstorm set & it’s amazing. I LOVE MV pastels. I am glad to see that they are “taking off” because that means that we can look forward to more amazing colors in the future. Thanks for this video. MV pastels are not only beautiful but also made with love and the price can’t be beat.

Please mam tell me he use a ball clay aur not ????
@kimberleycable
@kimberleycable 2 года назад
no he did not, he used marble dust as the base for the pigments. but you may use ball clay, kaolin, or blanc fixe (barium sulfate) as a filler. I've read you can mix half talcum powder (talc) to half marble dust as the base (which is 50% of dry ingredients). The talc adds slip and lightens the density of marble dust if you so desire a less dense stick. The browinsh powder he used was unbleached titanium dioxide, which is a pigment, adds opacity, but is not as harsh or a white than titanium dioxide.

Thank you very much to everyone, I am from the Middle East, I practice pastel painting, I tried hard to make some pastel fingers but I did not know the ingredients, I hope you write me the quantities of pastel industry as you understand from the video because I am not strong in English to listen and be thankful to you

Anybody know what the "unbleached" ingredient is ?
@monetcafe

I wasn't sure what that ingredient was, but I have found a few sites that give instruction on making pastels with just a binder and pigment... theartcolony.ning.com/forum/topics/how-to-make-your-own-soft-pastels-from-scratch
@kimberleycable

which gives the color mix of a softer appearance than titanium dioxide, whilst adding opacity at the same time

What kind of powder is used to mix with the liquid? You are not explaining very well what the mixing ingredients are.
@kimberleycable
@kimberleycable 2 года назад
the powders are pigments and filler (he explained he uses marble dust which is calcium carbonate as the base), the liquid is methyl cellulose solution (15:1). if you pay attention to the shot of his recipes, you can see which pigments and ratio he used for the base (around 50% of dry ingredients). Companies are really hush hush about their recipes

@@kimberleycable , thanks for the nice video! I wonder if the 15:1 proportions of methyl cellulose/water refers to weight or volume?
