Plein air Pastel Painting (An example on how to interpret your scene) Painting a Tree

This painting was a demo while I was teaching at Tallapoosa School of Art on the bank of Lake Martin in Alabama. Simplifying your scene and using your artistic license can allow you more freedom when painting outdoors. Paying attention to the light and using colors and values to create atmospheric perspective are also helpful. These and many other things will be discussed, as well as how to avoid yellow jackets from invading your demo.
Something happened when editing and I ended up with two audio files at the same time. I am still learning all of this, and I apologize when things don't quite go as planned. I deleted that part of the audio and did a voice over; only my second one. I learned so much this first year of filming and plan to continue moving forward to improve the experience for you all.

Thanks great demo and loved the colours you used

[@KariWaltz]

Thank you; much appreciated your comment and thanks for watching 🙂

[@suzannebenson6587]

I really enjoyed your demo... I love your use of color and your art is simply beautiful... I had to stop painting because of a back injury, and now try to stay inspired by watching these videos, hoping and praying I'll be able to do something again. Thank you so much! Wow! the finished piece is breathtaking!

[@KariWaltz]

Thank you for taking the time to comment. I'm sorry to hear about your back injury; prayers for healing and answers concerning your back. I hope you can find a way to paint again or discover another creative outlet. Is pastel your usual medium?

[@suzannebenson6587]

@@KariWaltz No, but I did take one pastel class before my injury... I've worked on and off over the years in acrylic and some oil too. I'm not a prolific artist by any means, but have always enjoyed it. Was trained as a graphic artist years ago.

@@suzannebenson6587 I hope you find your way back to some form of creating. Best wishes!

Thank you so much for watching! Let me know if you have any questions.

[@josephineherrera8508]

This is a really good demo. Albert Handel would be proud. Thank you for doing this. And I didn’t really mind the voiceover. Monetization kills the creation, I think.

[@KariWaltz]

Thanks for your comment and for watching. If you need the final painting posted for reference, I can now put it on my community tab page.

[@LeeKnight22]

Calk or oil pastel

[@KariWaltz]

@@LeeKnight22 not the oil

[@KariWaltz]

Chalk type is what I was using
