Hi Kerry great teacher Could you please do a dog in pastel ?

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

Hi there Paul, thank you first of all for watching my video and for subscribing and leaving feedback - truly appreciated. With regard to your request, did you have a breed in mind? xXx

[@paulwhiting1648]

Kerry Newell - Professional Wildlife Artist Hi Kerry thank you for your reply I have been asked to paint a portrait of a dog that has a black face with lots of blues and violets in it and I've already had two attempts at painting it in oil and failed so I'm going to try again in pastel but some advice from someone who knows what there doing would be a great help

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

I've created a video regarding black fur, please see if this helps you: kzbin.info/www/bejne/emfKgIuPgdd-pJI Best wishes, Kerry xXx

[@korrinabastion87]

Love this Lemur. Beautiful work. I looked at unison pastels a while ago but they are next level expensive. I’m thinking pan pastels might work as well. If I get good enough then they could be something I’d look at in the future.

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

Hi there Korrina, thank you for taking the time to watch my videos and leave comments for me - it really is appreciated ☺️ Your pastel choice will mainly depend on the surface you want to use. If you're going to use velour then I'd choose Unison, but if you're going to use Pastelmat etc then I'd choose Pan Pastels. I hope this helps with your future purchase decisions. Stay safe & stay creative xXx

[@margaretbrownhill1193]

I’m going to be watching this and the macaw a few times, I’ve mounted my velour on a board ! Ready to start the otters for my daughter and her fiancé. I’m so lucky I have unison pastels and caran d’ache pastel pencil, also carbothello and FC Pitt, although I find them a bit on the hard side. I must admit I love all all things caran dache their coloured pencils and waterco,our pencils too. I shall take it slowly and steadily, with light layers for the base coat underpainting, this is a bit nerve wracking but it will be so good if I can pull it off

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

All the very best with your otter project :-) You have quality products so hopefully they'll play nicely for you. Happy pas telling xXx

[@lunafehlan1644]

wow what a beauty. May I ask you how you keep the finished work clean and store it and do you use any fixatifs. Thank you.

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

Hi there Luna, thank you for watching my video and for taking the time to leave such a lovely comment, truly appreciated ☺️ Regarding your question - I either frame and hang my paintings, or if I need to store them they are laid flat in a draw with a sheet of glassine paper between paintings. I only use a light layer of fixative on paintings that are to be sent abroad to clients. I hope this helps xXx

[@amalbensaleh]

Thank you for this video, I ‘m just starting with pastels, trying pastel paper and exploring and learning. I love the texture of the velour paper, do you use a pastel fixative on it once your painting is done ?

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

Hi there Amal, I'm glad you found this video useful. With regard to pastel fixative, I do use this but only occasionally. If you're wanting to use a fixative for your own work then I suggest the one made by Winsor & Newton. Thank you once again for watching my videos xXx

[@amalbensaleh]

Thank you, your video are amazing, very informative

[@SathishKumar-pw9fu]

extroadinary !!!!!!so which is better pastelmat or velour i mean for fine details?

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

Thank you for watching my video and for taking the time to leave a comment, truly appreciated. In answer to your question - I've found that I can create adequate detailing on both velour and pastelmat. However more layers can be applied to velour so achieving more depth to a painting can be achieved a little easier in my opinion. Having said that I've found I love both so will be switching between the two from now onwards. I'm just filming my next video of a leopard in pastel on Pastelmat and hope to release this by the end of next week. Bye for now xXx

[@rosered8234]

I have caran d ache pastel pencils.. they are definitely a compliment with pan pastels & pitts . Gr8 picture , love to see animals come alive on paper . Especially when the eyes are done .. ❤

[@mommyzethartcorner7685]

wow thanks for uploading video aboit velour. Im a newbie in pastel and just bought this paper. may I ask what do you think is the best white soft pastel(aside fr unison for they are so expensive) and pastel pencil(bought white carbothello and its not that opaque)? I hope youll come up with more velour tips! it will be highly appreciated!

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

Hi there, thank you for watching my video - truly appreciated 😊 Unison soft pastels can be bought as ‘open stock’ so you could just purchase one white, it really would be worth the price. Rembrandt would be another soft pastel brand I’d recommend. As for a white pastel pencil - the most soft and opaque pencil I’ve found is by Caran d’Ache (again these are available open stock if you want to only purchase certain colours) Hope this helps. Stay safe and stay creative xXx

[@mommyzethartcorner7685]

how could I thank you! ill take note all of this. luckily they are all available here in Philippines(its just they are so expensive lol) youre right I guess we really have to invest on good qlty pastels. God bless and good luck!

[@johanneremillard263]

I work in pastel, oil, acrylic and colored pencils 🙂

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

Hi there Johanne, I hope your keeping well. Stay safe and stay creative xXx

[@jaydee177]

Would Rembrandt soft pastels work on velour paper?

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

Hi there Jay. Yes you shouldn't have any problem with Rembrandt soft pastels. They wouldn't be my first choice as they're a little harder but they'll still work. So no excuse for you not to get creative :-) xXx

[@carleyanneart8068]

Can I ask how you sharpen your pencils? Which brand of sharpener? Thank you 🙏

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

Hi there Carley I hope you are well. Thank you for watching my video - truly appreciated. In regard to your question - I use a stanley knife and a piece of sandpaper to sharpen my pastel pencils xXx

[@lottielouiseart]

Your art is just lovely!! How do you fix your drawings when they're finished?

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

Hi there Lottie I hope you are well. Thank you so very much for watching my video and for taking the time to leave such an encouraging comment - truly appreciated. With regard to your question - I don't usually use any fixative for my pastel work, but occasionally when I feel the need I use a pastel spray fixative by Winsor & Newton. A light spray before applying my final highlights. I hope this helps xXx

[@lottielouiseart]

Kerry Newell - Professional Wildlife Artist thank you for your reply 🥰🥰x

[@julieg54]

Hi I just tried velour paper and it was nice but I found the pastel came off a lot with any movement , do you have any tips on this ?

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

Hi there Julie, I'm glad to see that you've tried Velour paper with your pastels. With regarding to the falloff - make sure that any initial base coats are thoroughly worked into the tooth of the paper. Additional coats will then have more of the tooth to adhere to. Working top layers in pencil, apply slightly more pressure thus ensuring that all layers are pushed into the tooth and not left simply laying on the surface of the paper. I hope this helps xXx

[@ArtandKitchen_]

I tried applying pastel pencil on top of soft pastel on velour. Not sticking..why?

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

Hi there Mara, sorry to hear that your pastel pencil isn't applying as it should. My suggestions, without personally seeing your work, would be to make sure that the soft pastel base coat has been applied evenly and that you have blended it well into the tooth of the velour paper. Secondly make sure that you are using a pastel pencil of the softer variety e.g. Caran d'Ache, Derwent, Carbothello or Daler Rowney. Let me know how you get on :-) xXx

[@ArtandKitchen_]

@@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist yeahh, it sticks now but it's like it's just pussinh the soft pastel. Then it's not working if applied directly on velour (the pastel pencil)

[@fauxurfancy]

@@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist to teach on Patreon you said you can’t go live? I don’t understand? You can teach in videos without being live. All you have to do, to my understanding, is have a Patreon channel, add videos while you teach doing them and post. You have to set up your prices and have videos available like this one. People sign up and money is deducted monthly. Most people who have a Patreon channel set up a only members facebook page and you can answer questions and keep your followers up to date. I’m interested!

[@kerrynewell-wildlifeartist]

@@fauxurfancy Hi there Victoria, thank you for your response to this thread. Regarding Patreon - I have set up a Patreon account but haven’t had the time to do anything with it yet. I’m currently building a new studio (a garage conversion, doing the work myself). As soon as the new studio is ready I’ll be moving everything over into there, complete with a new filming set up. Once settled in I’ll begin to add tutorials to my Patreon channel.
