Para mi eres la megor pastelista de estos tiempos y eres una increible artista, amo tu trabajo ❤❤❤

Muchas gracias por tu comentario tan amable. ¡Alegra mi corazón!

[@elpajaroazul9909]

@@GailSibleyArtist me gustaría saber si das un curso en línea o si está en español porque quiero que seas mi mentor, también dibujo con tiza pastel pero no tengo el mismo talento, ojalá tengas curso sería agradable ver tus técnicas pero no sé inglés 😔

I really like that painting. It's amazing how you've managed to bring out such an exciting image from a photo that I would have discarded. It makes me look at things in a whole new way.

Wow! As I was once told while trying w/c, sometimes you just have to make yourself jump! 😱😂 This one sure did! Fantastic! Going back and reviewing your courses, falling in love all over again. Many thanks. Cheers!

Gail....please post more frequently

[@GailSibleyArtist]

Ack. Yes!! I know. I will. I will!!! Thanks for the nudge.

[@kimberlyjeffers1623]

Thanks so much Gail. I only have bright coloured pastels and am always unsure how to use them. I suppose I just have to go for it!

[@GailSibleyArtist]

Definitely play with them Kimberly! Remember you can always tone them down by layering over a complementary colour. Be sure to check out my video on making greys! kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYCTfausi5h1iLc

[@lucyspastels]

This was inspiring, as always. Thank you. I definitely would love to feel freer with color, so encourage you to do more of these if you have the time!

[@GailSibleyArtist]

Thanks Gill!! And yes, I do plan to post more regularly.Thanks for the encouragement 😊 And....I hope it will inspire you to play with colour!

[@setenzer]

Aag! I’m afraid of color! I’m also unsure of layering over brights Thanks for your helpful videos.

[@GailSibleyArtist]

Don't be afraid! The main thing is to stay in the value range. When you say you are unsure about layering over brights, what is the result you are after? If you want to grey them down, use complements. If you want to keep the intensity, use other intense colours over them. Hope that helps Susie 😀

[@shelleybrandon2825]

LOVE IT! Thank you, Gail! I've not checked out your reference photo, but I sure love the dynamics of your rendition! Value does the work, color gets the glory!

[@GailSibleyArtist]

You got that right Shelley! And the more we understand that concept, the freer we can be with colour!
