This is great! What is sugar paper? Where can I buy some?
@damiancallan5 ай бұрын
in any UK art shop - it's an inexpensive pastel paper: What is sugar paper UK? Construction paper, also known as sugar paper, is coloured cardstock paper. The texture is slightly rough, and the surface is unfinished. Due to the source material, mainly wood pulp, small particles are visible on the paper's surface. It is used for projects or crafts.

Taking the adventurous route, I see! Looks great. This is the part of my art I try to hone in on myself. It's ill-rewarded but it's the kind of work that keeps me going. Thanks for the video.

Nice bird. I like your paper technique. I was just wondering is the glue diluted with water? And, can you only use the PVA glue or will Elmer's glue work too?
@damiancallan10 ай бұрын
Thank you - no, I used the PVA undiluted - it's stronger and quicker that way. Other glues would probably also be fine!

Just wondering: why is that called still life? They might be still, but they are not lives. Also, you draw with your left hand, quite remarkable.

I just recently got interested in ink drawing. Went from micro pens to nib pens to a bamboo pen. The black of ink is a complement to the white of the paper, so crucial to watercolor. It's not something I'd do exclusively but is a way to refocus, for me, on the shadows, so important for depth and perspective in painting. Chalk and charcoal are also welcome substances as you demonstrated so well. Thanks.

Hi Damian, it´s very inspiring the way you approach the drawing with those techniques (smudging, erasing, etc.) in a loose way and watching how such a drawing can change each time, great!

I was taught to never blow soft pastels. Spreads dust into the air, full of pigment and medium, not healthy. Vertical positioning of the work surface, gentle tapping, good ventilation. Cringed with every puff. That being said, I enjoyed your instruction, will paint a cyclamen this aft using this method.
