I am wondering of what I have is best to use. I have Mungvo but they are oil pastels, I also have chalk like pastels, Nupastel , but not as a pencil. I have Derwent Colour Soft. 2 stablocarbothello pink and yellow ochre. Many of my coloured pencils are polychromos, albrecht durer by Faber Castell and Derwent Inktense and Berol Prismacolour. I only have 2 pitt pencils which are brown and terracotta plus conte. also is Strathmore 400 series paper good? thank you

[@deborahdarcy6268]

hi I am still wondering about the same question before starting.

[@nerllybird]

@@deborahdarcy6268 Why don't you use the CarbOthello pink and ochre for the rose, and the Pitt pencils for dark values? Using the correct medium is more important than having a large palette.

i guess I am kinda off topic but does anyone know of a good place to watch new movies online ?

Really like this tutorial, shows how varying mediums can make good results. Also showed me how to use my Pitt pencils. Also not to be anxious about pastel mediums. Thanks. Later same day. Have just finished my copy of the Pitt pastel rose. Enjoyable. Thanks.

Thankyou very much for this study. Have just recently retrieved my pastels as haven’t used for approximately 15yrs. Found this very interesting.

I loved the first rose more 🌹

[@jackiegoodwin2332]

I am just re-watching this - forgot to say thanks for a really good tutorial. I went on to do a painting that I’m really proud of 👍🏻

[@yufenghuang9958]

I wad wondering what to do with my soft pastels. This gave me idea of what to do with it. Thanks for the detailed tutorials.

[@angelakilroe3271]

Brilliant, out come my pastels again. Thank you.

[@TheHobokenArtGal]

Great job. I have mungyo pastels as well as the carbothellos which are similar to the Faber Castell that you own but theses have a variety of assorted colors including red, pink etc.

[@kathryndohring5481]

Thank you for posting this. Very helpful!

[@norarae4427]

With good pastels your drawing doesn't disappear when you spray fixative.

[@marilynamy2007]

Great video thank you very much

[@tookiecookie2266]

Awesome!!!

[@GauravSingh-wl8el]

Wow!! More soft pastel please......

[@johnnysolow]

Thanks Phil, that was interesting!

[@sujanithtottempudi2991]

I feel pastelmat and UART sanded paper are the best .... mostly used now

[@CaroleRodrigue]

I agree, and pastelmat is what I use the most now.

[@nerllybird]

This is really helpful, thank you for sharing. One point, though - having paid a fair amount for my Canson paper, I'm going to use the honeycomb side and use ordinary watercolour or drawing paper if I want a smooth surface. Although using both sides of the Canson would make it better value 😁

[@risenshine2783]

Inspiring thanks!

[@macclift9956]

That bright pink is Opera Pink in watercolour paints.

[@janvelazquez2473]

Thank you for this video ☺️

[@wizzebiz]

Super mooi ..een echte Artiest

[@rmc9076]

Why not use a deep green in shadows of red rose , complainant.. of the reddish brown I would think . Beautifully done in your limited pencils . 👍

[@joycolville3438]

Thanks enjoyed

[@tetianamomot2160]

Hello! Thank you for the lessons! I have a question. How to prime paper with Golden pastel primer? Thank you!

[@colletteledsom2148]

Is that a scouse accent I detect? Love this tutorial you explain it so well and make it sound so doable,

[@artgeometrix6346]

So thorough. Really great tutorial. It's a shame you were unable to match the pink perfectly

[@edenisok894]

The pastel set on amazon is $22.99 and the sets of 32 and 48 are out of stock right now

[@juanasstudioofart6115]

I have many pink pastel pencils so what colors should I choose

[@serenas_art]

Thank youuuuuuuu

[@PhilDaviesArtist]

You're welcome Serena

[@catcat1526]

Why did you use purple and yellow to base the color of the red rose? And you drew red on the shadow. I cannot see the red in the shadow. Can you talk more about these? Thank you.

[@libellula3313]

Thanks for the video. It’s pronounced “me tant” like can’t, no ‘s’

[@sujanithtottempudi2991]

For the second rose....is dark green more appropriate as cast Shadow? Complentary? Yes....this rose looks stunning though

[@PhilDaviesArtist]

Try it

[@gildaalmeida5589]

❤❤❤❤😊

[@sujanithtottempudi2991]

I got really frustrated using this paper during my early stages...sorry that's my experience 😔

[@OrioleBeagle]

Faber Castelll Pitt and Stabilo Carbothello pastel pencils are the easiest pastel pencils to sharpen with a pencil sharpener. I refuse to sharpen anything with a knife.
