Reflections in the creek

One of my favorite aspects of MR. Allan’s work is that the beauty is not overworked. He doesn’t detract from his vision with too much detail. I love the balance. Thank you.

Wow! I have never been so mesmerized by a pastel painting! Thank you so much, Tony Allain. You are truly a master, a reference and an inspiration! Time to pick up my pastels and do some painting again! Love from Portugal ❤

This is fantastic, Tony. So glad I found you. I am still learning pastels. This gives me an insight into what is possible.

Lovely as usual

Amazing. Wonderful illustration of the role of values in the composition of a painting

[@simonapalosan3208]

This technique of juxtaposition of values and hues is one of the many valuable things I learned from you. Thank you.

So lucky to have found your channel. Would you mind telling me what type of paper your are painting on? Thank you.

[@tonyallain272]

UART black 400 grit

[@mattvickers10]

Tony, What type of pastels are you using? They almost look like diane townsend terrages or maybe the pebbles from sennelier but they seem to be softer than sennelier. I just noticed that both the light purple and the earth brown you were using were large pastels of a somewhat odd shape. Any info would help a young pastelist looking to learn from your infinite wisdom! Thanks for all that you share.

[@ElizabethBattle]

I would like to know this as well!

[@simonapalosan3208]

Absorbed every stroke! Beautiful. Do you mind telling how many pastel sticks, on average, you use for one painting?

[@tonyallain272]

Thank you Simona, I probably use a maximum of about 15 different pastel sticks of various colours and values.
