Thaxxxx for the upload. Been wanting to learn how to create with soft pastel thanks for the spray adhesive tip.

"the trees are more darker?" "a lot more thicker?" Pay attention to your grammar if you want viewers to believe you have any intelligence at all.

This is inaccurate and somewhat only explained at the very end. Acrylics are made with a polymer which dries permanently and cannot be removed. True gouache layers (as opposed to acrylic gouache) can be rewet if the additional layers you apply are too wet. This can be a disaster if the layers wet each other and those colors blend! Gouache can be wonderful IF you know about this potential problem and learn how to control the paint's wetness and thickness. Do check other "how to" videos to learn more specifics.

ive always used colored pencils for my art, i just tried some oil pastels on regular computer paper and it looked horrible, i couldnt blend well, they look like crayon smudges.....what am i doing wrong?

This is a flawed video. I personally would not recommend it.

Is it easier than oils?

Well actually I'm a good artist I am also good at using marker and pencil colour's but oil pastels was quite hard for me also acrylic paints are also hard for me 😅......

Hi! Thank you for your videos! Is the smooth paper you are using regular cold press watercolor paper on the smooth side? Thank you!

Can you blend with paint brushes?

I can tell you're an acrylic fan 😅 acrylic fans bash oil but oil fans dont seem to bash acrylic. Weird.

I love your videos, I been watching them since I was little they have helped me improve so much! ❤

The picture of the two frogs at the beginning is why I chose to watch this video all the way through. No real reason for saying so, just wanted to put that out there.

What I like here is the term 'dry pastels'. I here many artists talking about 'chalk pastels'. There is no such thing as a chalk pastel, and to me, it's lazy nonenclature and confusing to beginners. Pastels are pure pigment mixed with a binder to give them form. No chalk involved. PS, I never spray, I keep my finished work in glaasine until I can get them framed behind glass. But if spraying works fo you that's great.

If you were like me and were told almost nothing from your art teacher in a vocational highschool about oil paints, please do you own EXTENSIVE research. Man, that teacher made my life hell and in the process a lot of my clothes got destroyed with oil paints. Though I love that consistency of that thick ass paint and how nice is to just mix and even paint with it with a palette knife which is so cool. Really nice if you have the space and ventilation for it.

I got my first set of oil pastels and I'm overwhelmed. I am grateful for this video, it showed me a few extra tricks to get things just so. Thanks!

If Don't Have 1 Of Those Erasure's You Can Use Bluetack.

The oil pastels don't blend for me for some reason when I use my finger or anything at all.

I have been doing pastels for quite some time now. Didn't know the difference between soft and hard pastel. Your video taught me a lot. Will visit you often

Bro acrylic paint is water based paint. But it does contains a plastic polymer emulsion as the binder.

It's just different tools to make life a little easier. Plus honestly tracing only gets you so far to a finished piece.

very direct and to the point. thank you.

Your voice is perfect for voice over ads 😅

And what difference in if us soft pastal

what are best quality oil pastals a s cost

That is adorable! My grandson is a huge Gengar fan. I’m thinking about trying to make him one. Thank you for the great instructions and not placing so much on perfection. I tend to overwork things to try for perfection and you did a great job and had fun. I can definitely learn from you. For the eyes and teeth, I think with, I might try using a fine tip micron pen or marker. I couldn’t imagine trying to paint the lines. Have a great and creative day. ❤

I meant to buy oil pastels. I was disappointed when I opened the box. So here I am. I will give it a try.

I just had my first experience with chalk / hard pastels thinking it was SOFT PASTELS as the packege was saying and didn't like it at all

From the video, it seems a lot of people would prefer acrylic paints, since they can be directly used.

Lol whole video was about oil paint being bad 😂

I use water-soluble oil paints. No more problems with turpentine. No odour. Washi brushes in water. Huge convenience.

Thank you for that

After many ye observation and research, acknowledgement of your biased opinions on oil paints, i have come to the conclusion of going out and purchasing oil paint purely on the analysis of Bob Ross' achievements, thank you.

Thank you! A friend gave me a box of dry pastels and they've been sitting in that box for over a year. I'm more drawn to three dimensional works and 2 dimensional artwork is not my strong point. Sometimes I just want to play with color though to just relax...and now , thanks to your video, I feel I can handle those pastels easier. And I need a fixative spray. Thanks for that tip. Enjoyable video and cute cat!😊

I'm now 68. I remember using dry pastels in the 2nd grade. They were messy. 😂

If you’re wanting to get a certain color mixed with your acrylics you can place the paint on your board and add some water to blend the colors together to make another color. I like the idea of keeping the painting spritzed with a little water bottle so you can continue to blend on your canvas, that’s awesome!

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Great job ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Great information, thanks a lot, thank you soo much.

I hated acrylics its not that satisfying like oils , water colours are just out of control

So...is it alright to use bond paper with this?

If acrylic paints and watercolor paints had a baby, the baby would be waterproof. Gouache is not.

RIP Prismacolor selling nupastels individually 😢

Ty I'm 72 want to learn this. It came out gorgeous

Thanks for the run down. I've only recently messed around with them. Thus far, what looks all bright and crisp with watercolor, looks moribund in gouache, but again, just learning how to use it. I really like this medium, so hope to be proficient with it before long. 🎨

The background sounds are super distracting. We don't need them. Why are they even there? We all don't have crippling ADD and don't need background music and sounds.

Can i post your video with my country language translation on facebook?

Few points worth mentioning: 1. long handle vs short handle - long one is (mostly) for 'on the easel' painting - you don't want to smudge the painting with your hand while painting - and it's useful in i.e. impressionism if you don't need a lot of control 2. there is a difference between cheap and expensive brushes in quality of materials - and as an old saying goes: the cunning man loses twice - you can spend much more money buying cheap brushes and throwing them away constantly...

It bothers me he didn't make the balloon string wrap all the way around the whale, he forgot to extend it down to the belly 😂 but other than that this was very helpful

Excellent video! I have recently seem this word popping up and i had no idea what it was - except it was some kind of paint! This explains it perfectly! 😊
