Painting Beach Pines and Grasses with Pastels

For another wet underpainting demo of the dune check out this video

Your work is stunning. It reminds me of a couple of other gifted KZbinrs. It’s so helpful to hear you talk during your work to get insight into choices you make and why. Great work and thanks for sharing!

Can you briefly explain your underpainting color selections. Why did you use a pink and purple underpainting for a blue sky and green shrubs.

[@LanaBallot]

If I did not have mentioned it there, I like to use a warmer color in the sky to give it more luminosity, other colors might be from my personal preferences.

superbes couleurs, je suis peintre en pastel et je connais pas l interet de l isoprol, pouvez vous m expliquer ? moi ma premiere couche c est aux crayons pastel polychromos, des pastels Rembrant un peu dur et la finition au pastel schmincke tendre. Quel talent et tant de travail aussi pour acquérir ce résultat

[@LanaBallot]

Merci! Oui, je viens d'établir les couleurs de base que je voudrais voir à travers les couches supérieures de pastels secs. J'aime cet effet.
