Pastel painting techniques and an amazing tutorial with Lyn Diefenbach I Colour in Your Life

[@jess65963]

I have watched this particular video I don't know how many times I just love it. It is now September 4th 2024

[@babconsoli5655]

[@windrider5845]

Stunning art and the most delightful lady! Thank you!

Such a gem 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️❤️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@cynthialoza6295]

She is such a happy person. An amazing artist!

[@vegasrenie]

It’s been 100 years since I’ve picked up anything art related, and I recently went back to watercolor. I don’t know why I hadn’t learned the methods that I am learning now, but I am loving it. I had always thought of pastels as clunky, messy, and muddy. In my opinion, there are many pastel artists who weren’t nearly as good as they think they are. And then I ran into this lady. OMG. She has made me completely rethink my opinion on pastels. I’m talking about 180° sea change. Her work amazingly beautiful. And while I have very little hope of reaching her degree of skill and talent, I have recently purchased the first pastels I’ve had in over 40 years. I’m going to sit down and practice. After that, I have no words.

[@dougg1075]

She is amazing! Beautiful art.

[@ArtyUnz]

Thank god! Finally, a show that not only showcases Australian artists but also showcases the best medium known to mankind- pastel! What a delight to watch, listen and learn from Lyn; to see how she creates her masterpieces and share her extensive knowledge and skill to us all. I am an artist of 20 years, I work in dry media (mainly charcoal and pastel) and I absolutely agree with Lyn- my art is my spiritual haven and I too love to share and teach others. Thank you Graeme/CIYL for bringing art, artists and pastel into the spotlight!

[@ColourinyourlifeAu]

Thank you Ainslie, I'm so glad you like the series. We have done it about as tough as you could imagine to bring this to the world and that is now what is happening for all of these people. We have had no support from any department any where, but have slogged away for four years to put this together. Spread the word for us, we will do our best to keep it all going for you guys, Graeme

Lyn, your lovely personality as an instructor is excellent AND your work is so outstanding. I loved the three dimensional effect that your work exhibits. I kept waiting for the two gentlemen to come out and see your beautiful rose. Thanks for another excellent video. Thanks to Grahame, he always picks the best artists. I couldn’t believe your two men were a portrait. 👌🏻👩🏻‍🎨

[@mchameleonm]

This is my first time seeing Lyn's work.. I traveled here via interest in soft pastels, and seeing the astounding thumbnails of her work... I was entranced and soaking in everything she had to say. Thank you for sharing her work with us, and to her for sharing her knowledge. Wow.

[@sitinuriatistudio]

Wow! I've finally found my own pastel 'mentor'. Lyn is amazing and her pastel paintings are gorgeous. Thank you for featuring her.

[@edmundosherrera]

i like her style of applying pastel

[@louisedubois7375]

I have been working with pastels going on 5 years now but have deviated, trying acrylics, watercolour and alcohol ink. This video definitely has motivated me to get back to pastels (I have a collection that would likely be the envy of many). Absolutely stunning work, Lyn. Hopefully someday you will come to Canada or another visit to the U.S. where I could travel. What an inspiration you are....

[@yeggneswararaojammalamadak6084]
