Portrait In Pastel by Rob Wareing

[@Xplorer228]

Not only am I impressed with the painting, but I'm amazed that a little girl is willing to sit for that long!

[@videoware]

thankyou she was an unusualy good model

[@artbycheryl]

+WareingImages hi

[@sarayumeewang4125]

I’ve been watching this again and again and again. Always my favorite Pastel Portrait. Really love your painting.

[@videoware]

I have survived makeing a living for more than 40 years and can honestly say that I wouldnt have lasted one year if it were not for painting from life

[@MsShreya1991]

Wow. Looking at your work I realize every little stroke has the power to take the portrait to a different dimension

[@videoware]

the pastels I use are a combination of nu pastels rembrandt and unison

[@hymntonight]

I absolutely love this man's loose, energetic approach. It's so inspiring to watch!

[@marionsway]

Brilliant art! I adore using pastels, and your work is absolutely inspirational!!

[@DiabolicalAngel]

I love how sensitive and whimsical your lines are! What a sweet little girl and an excellent model.

[@susanna6978]

This was interesting. The little girl seems interested in the process as well. She did well to sit for so long . Thank you

[@ThePriyatama]

oh my..I love your work..I did pastel portraits for many years myself.I admire the lovely result you have achieved.Thank you!

[@Kazishairslikesoradd]

she didn't say much but her wide smile at the end shows how much she loves the portrait!

[@meierstudio]

I can't think of a more pleasant way to start my day. 'Love to watch you work so intelligently. I see your jaw moving ; I imagine you're talking your way through the decisions of which marks/colors to put down. Thanks for this video.

[@spat727]

Not anything typical. This is truly a masterful artist!

[@jorgeernestorodrigue]

Gracias por dejarnos ver todo ese derroche de talento, en verdad lo felicito. Captó Usted la expresión de la Niña. Excelente.

[@videoware]

[@skwidvishus1188]

Outstanding! Educational. Inspirational. Motivational. Now I must go and paint...

[@paulyfontejon822]

..it is God-like. Watching your hands move with natural ease is like watching God's grace in creating the universe. truly a master at work:). Mabulay!

[@carolynharper8331]

So much fun to see the topography of the human face rise up from the paper, however her lower lids are much fuller--making her eyes smaller than you depicted.

[@1000TomSawyer]

I love your work. It is a work that feels very warm nostalgia, and, gently.

[@jekaterinanemeth3052]

Super! Очень живописный портрет! Спасибо за видео! 🤩🤩🤩♥️♥️♥️😊🌹🍀🎁

[@olesyap41]

Awesome job! I couldn’t wait to see the little girl’s reaction to her portrait.

[@shaddayah]

Stunning! Enjoyed every bit of this video!

[@videoware]

thank you

[@gertrudebrinkman5266]

That was awesome. Love watching a master at work - made my day.

[@videoware]

Thankyou for your comments I use fabercastell pastel pencils for the drawing the snguine and the darker one is sepia dark I favour nupastels to begin and finish with rembrandt rowney and unison pastels

[@karenpiukkula2582]

You really captured it...love your work and also what a nice little girl to work with

[@joselarah629]

Excelente trabajo de Rob Wareing con el retrato de la niña al pastel. muy motivador!

[@videoware]

thankyou for your comments and yes Jessica was a remarkable model

[@winksartistt3817]

The portrait glows - beautiful

[@counterstrike89]

Yes I agree with that, I also think its key to be able to draw just as well from imagination, this strengthens your ability like you wouldn't believe. Many jobs come from people who want there kid or pets done, and even though one may do a fantastic job, still its hard spending so much time on a picture realizing there are other guys out there just tracing the pic with a projector. So are you saying most of your work is done from life and not photos?

[@iagobroxado]

Fantastic work! Cheers from Brazil!

[@hanmurasaki8427]

that's why I like use pastel.. inspring me.. thank you Mr.Rob

[@juanlambda27]

Very nice work! I like your process! I see that you use pastel sticks but can you recommend any brand of pastel pencils? I use mainly charcoal and do some oil painting but I've only recently started pastels. I've tried derwent pastel pencils but find them too hard/rough.

[@GwynethSleuth]

Nice painting. Does the DVD have a photo of the model, or show her at times during the painting so we can see what the artist is actually looking at when he puts down the strokes?

[@leninha-carioca]

Your work is wonderful. I am thinking about buying some of your dvd. I am wondering if you explain the work process on the tutorials.

[@RockDove5212]

Could you tell me what pastels you used exactly. They looked much more precise than the sticks. beautiful drawing. I loved it best unblended so the strokes are visible. Really wonderful.

[@videoware]

Sorry, I just saw your comments now. My name is Elaine. I manage the WareingImages channel. Sadly Rob passed away recently but , as I managed his career & ordered his art materials for many years I am familiar with his techniques. For the initial drawing he used Faber Castell Pitt pastel pencils, then moved on to Prisma Color Nu-Pastels. Then added softer pastels as he went along using assorted pastels from various manufacturers notably Unison, Rembrandt, Schminke & Sennelier. Although did use Rowney soft pastels as well at one stage, they changed their colours & consistency a few years ago and he did not like these so found alternatives from other manufacturers. He did bring out a video set “Capturing a Likeness” which you can download or live stream from our Vimeo channel vimeo.com/ondemand/robwareing . We are also planning a book on Pastel techniques retrospectively based on Rob’s teachings. If you would like to be kept informed about this please email [e-mail]

[@rababtamim4833]

Wooow..That is really pure talent ...

[@southwoodside]

Great. I haven't worked on a pastel in years and only then they were still life ones, but just tonight I tried a couple of portraits. Drawing was good but pastel infill was rubbish. Then I found your vid. and I can see how I went wrong. I got bogged down in complications instead of keeping it simple like you, adding nice touches here and there. Thanks for the demo. I am looking forward to my next improved effort. (BTW I CAN do portraits, having done them in pencil and oils.)

[@videosmark7]

¡¡ EXCELENTE, ES LO MEJOR QUE VI EN RETRATOS AL PASTEL !! ¡¡ FELICITACIONES !! SALUDOS

[@davejf1949]

[@lauradurrant3065]

[@smtopshelf]

Utterly Amazing! Thanks for uploading!

[@crashoverride1000]

Simply gorgeous work.

[@MrWeiden1991]

amazing. amazing. i live in birmingham , how i can learn it from you this technique.please let me know. what is better way to do pastel. any way nice calm and cute model and you did a great job.

[@carlosgamboa23]

This was beautiful to watch.

[@videoware]

thankyou the painting is painted from beginning to end from a live model and there are continual references to her throughout the video

[@Rsramko]

How could i buy Your dvd´s please, if it is possible for my region - Czech Republic? I need to know all about :) thanks

Wow, that's an amaizing piece of work Mr. Wareing. Really like how you build the colors. Wonderful skills. Here's a simple question. Do you work with a specific brand of pastels, or just pick the colors you need from any one? Greetings from Colombia.

[@irenegurley]

You are awesome! Really inspiring. Thank you for the video.

[@videoware]

thankyou for your comments

[@easleweasle]

This is very inspiring! I hope I can reach this level oneday! Thanks for uploading! :)

[@xDaringMotive]

what colours r u using if u dont mind me asking? ive just started doing portraits & I'm 17. Great video it was very helpful. thanks!

[@flamingorock]

hey,....who painted that painting of the kids by the shore on the wall???

[@cuernomuerto]

Q: Its painful draw like that? I mean, checking the proportions constantly.

[@isaian2e]

All that some art instructors care about is modern art. They dont focus on the importance of anatomy. Your art is ispirational. I wish i had profesors that would focus more on this.

[@elgordineo]

great work, i have just made the transition to pastels from using pencil for the past 5 or so years, how long would a drawing/painting like this take you to complete Rob?

[@lgoopio]

Im so glad I stumbled to one of your videos

[@LimsanelyHilauraious]

This is wonderful! :D Thoroughly enjoyed watching this.

[@gaetano503]

hello. the pastels can be used on the canvas?

[@SuzieLady]

What a lovely drawing of a patient sweet girl

[@josepilozo3178]

Excelente técnica... un gran artista.

[@videoware]

[@videoware]

thankyou for your comments

[@159tony]

@WareingImages you did? i've seen that one at our school, but i never knew who the creator was, or if it wasn't that one then it sure as hell looks like it

[@MayaNovak89]

I like your style and how kind you were to your model. when i was little an artist painted a portrait of me but he kept shouting at me not to move and it was very frightening. :) but i'd love to have you draw me.

[@angelgabriel7628]

what a wonderful artist

[@lanayashina]

Can someone please please tell me which pencil the artist uses after the sanguine? Is it charcoal? A pastel pencil?

[@videoware]

Hi it is a sepia dark pastel pencil [faber castel]

[@lanayashina]

Thank you so much! I love your work!

[@NatsuBurgers]

[@JAMES69605]

Essa saida da garotinha sorrindo, ficaria magnifico estampado na tela... Parabéns !!!

[@counterstrike89]

Its difficult whether to make a career out of this because so many guys out there trace the photos, how do you compete with that if you don't want to trace. But its nice your drawing this girl from life.

[@iain30jam]

Great work, I have a few of your drawing books and they are all great, well done John :)

[@eleonoralallai7662]

Fatto benissimo tecnica ottima....ma la bambina era diversa non sorrideva e nn era così magra e il taglio dei capelli diterso! Poi X capita prospettiva dimensioni perfette!e colori usati egregiamente! Bellissimo complimenti

[@heycarolineday]
