For dark skin these extra pencils I use... burnt sienna /655 Browns /640, 635 I don't use this brand's blues as the lightfastness is very poor. so I use Conti a Paris ones for them,... No10, No 06, No 22 and No46. Also the purple red for the deep shadows ... No19
If you can afford it I would recommend buying the sets as the extra colours would be very useful for clothes and backgrounds and can work out cheaper per pencil... affiliate links below.

Thank you! Cheers! Pastels are a great way to learn to mix colours. 😊🙏

[@mandypoole6828]

Hi i just stumbled on your channel. I enjoy art so much. I would say i am ok at drawing but recently i have taken up adult colouring as a hobby. In particular portraits. I find your tutorials on skin invaluable. Just knowing how to mix these colours are helping me so much. I want my portraits to look realistic. Your teaching skills are amazing and calming. Its not art as you would see it but. I really appreciate your work. Love from the UK.x❤☺🇬🇧

Great portrait again. Can you do a tutorial on Pastels and the color wheel as that's what I struggle with.

[@DavePortersArt]

Great suggestion! will add that to the list of videos to do... cheers! :-)

[@makailajohnson1035]

Hey Dave, I absolutely love your work! Thank you for providing amazing tutorial videos and sharing your knowledge here on KZbin with us fellow artists😄. I'm curious to know, how long does it take for you to complete a pastel painting?

[@DavePortersArt]

HI makaila, thank you so much! you are very welcome... thrilled you are enjoying them and getting value from them too. To complete a Portrait in pastels can take up to 20 hours at the easel, depending on the amount of work involved. All the very best with your art endeavours 💕🙏

[@makailajohnson1035]

@@DavePortersArt Thanks, Dave! 😊 Wow, 20 hours is pretty quick. Thank you for taking the time to reply to my comment and answer my question. You have inspired me to invest in pastel pencils and give them a try. Them seem like loads of fun! It is going to take much practice for me to get on your level, but I'm willing to try something new. 😄
