Your color test pages are practically paintings in their own right! We think upgrading from hair spray was a good move, too. Thanks for a glimpse at the grounds around your home that inspire you. Your kitchen is so charming! (But now our stomachs are growling) These videos truly show how making art can bring joy to life!

Blick, I'm so glad to have you here in this community - it's fun to see what you think of the videos! I LOVE color swatching and color charts :). And yes to the fixative upgrade - I got rid of my hairspray!

This was a great video! I loved your painting, so much texture, and the colors were so cool. I really enjoyed watching you do the swatches, and all those beautiful blues and green just caught my eye. I have never tried pastels, ever. You have just inspired me to give it a go. I also really liked the way you edited this video, it was soothing. I was waiting all day for you to come on. Loved it all!! I was a little down today, so thank you for making my day!! 😉🤗

@labcat647 Год назад

I see pure joy in your field study. You might want to experiment with Clairefontaine Pastelmat paper. Made for pastels, but it can take wet and mixed media. For an underpainting, I use some sort of wet media, or pastel washed with 70% alcohol (dries quicker than water)... and then use my soft pastels on top. It comes in different colors, but I like white, and it has a soft feel to it. It's a bit pricey, but worth trying if you are using soft pastels. Instead of single sheets, I buy the pads.

@sandihester Год назад

Good tips! Thank you!

@lightwavz Год назад

I saw that roll of pastels and my immediate reaction was, "Cool! Sandi got a BOOMERANG!" Then my secondary reaction was, "woah. that would be bad." (I am the duchess of clumsiness so I think I was projecting) But now, of course, I have to move those graphite bars up my list. I adore a chunky drawing tool too! Thanks for taking us along into the fields! That painting was AWESOME!

May I just say this: your landscapes are becoming something I want to roll in! They are so inviting to simply be and enjoy in every single way. No matter how I feel, your landscapes make me happy, and that says a lot because I rarely feel that way when looking at a work of art. When you’re an artist, art teacher, and an avid student of art history you tend to form a ridiculous critical eye that makes it hard to simply enjoy a work of art. Somehow, your work manages to free my eye from its constant critiquing and allows me to take it all in with gusto. I need to send you something I’ve been holding onto for a while. If your mailing address is something you would be willing to share I would like to send it to you.

new subscriber and literally obsessed! Your art process and just abstract art in general really steers me away from perfection and to create art to create. and I really love that because my 2022 goal was to have a more daily creative process and really have an "artist" daily life and your videos inspire me to create even if it's "shitty art" in my eyes. Even if the year almost over and I'm finally getting what having a "creative art life" actually looks like on the daily and not just creating to complete a finished piece

@tiaroxae9902 Год назад

I have to say I love the way you do your swatches, it's actually my preferred method as well! The tidy boxes or stripes I see so frequently (for swatching) always seems like it doesn't give a good sense of any given medium's capability, and how it'll play in general or together. Especially when one works mixed! So vibrant and exciting to see. You've been one of my favorites for awhile now, I'm just comment-shy, haha.

@michl6688 Год назад

Hi Sandi, another great video, thanks! Just an FYI on your 2 Spectrafix fixative, you are likely aware that you bought 2 different ones, but wanted to let you know just in case as they may act differently. (it may not make a difference depending how you use it). The smaller one you bought is their "regular" fixative and the one in the larger spray bottle is their new "final" fixative, they are marketing it as a potential replacement for having to frame soft pastels under glass. I have not tried it. Thanks for your great sense of humour and colourful videos!

Lyra graphite sticks also come in a 6B and 9B. Lyra also makes the graphite sticks that are water-soluble from 2B to 9B; so much fun! Oh, I thought you might like to know that on the graphite scale the lead gets darker as the number increases; so a 4B would be lighter in value than the 9B, which is the darkest one. 😉 🥰
