Love the shave and roll magic! And all your work. Thank you!

I loved the abstract nature of the dandelions! What a neat trick at the end, grated & rolled pastel. I found the background music really soothing, which is good for the soul ❤

Amen and amen! Nothing like our beautiful Savior. No piece of artwork could compare to what he has done to save us! Bless you sweetheart.

Very cleverly done, Susan. When the Holy Spirit is a part of you; the imagination creates that which is good. ❤️

Amen brother! What a beautiful Savior we have who gave us such an amazing palette for creating art.

Awesome work Susan thank you so much for sharing👌.

Did you place the pastel paper horizontally on a table before grating the pastels and rolling the can to press the dust in, or is the surface still vertical?

[@monetcafe]

I laid the painting flat on a table before dusting the pastel on it. That way it wouldn’t fall off.

[@PaigeWelch-cm8jn]

I have this orignal painting from you❤

[@monetcafe]

☺️☺️☺️☺️❤️💜❤️

[@sharonadair6417]

Susan, do you only paint smaller paintings or do you paint all different sizes?

[@monetcafe]

I actually like to paint in larger sizes but since I’m doing so many teaching videos the smaller sizes are definitely faster to produce. I like work in a 16” x 20” size but the largest Pastel Painting I’ve ever done is 36” x 24”.

[@ElizabethBattle]

​@@monetcafe I would love to see that painting.😊 I love to work large, but I have a wee studio (no complaints -- I am grateful to have a studio at all!).
