I used to do pastel work at High School 20 years ago and I am attempting to get back into it all these years later as I am getting bored with computer graphics. You are one of the best pastel artists I have seen and really inspiring. WOW!! I hope to do many myself with your inspiration. Thank you for sharing.

[@jeancledera7509]

Hi, love your video. I don't usually comment, but this is wow! I wanna be like you. I'm just 16 and the only medium I'm good at is Charcoal. I would also like to make something with color but I don't know if I can, really. I was thinking on going for digital art, because of a friend. But when I see traditional arts it makes me feel so...real :) it has life, every stroke of color is wonderful. And thank you for the video love it :D

[@bograart]

Hello Jean, if you prefer the charcoal it´s great because this medium is very rich and you could use it in many different ways... If you work a lot with charcoal, you´ll start to master the other techniques too... Best, Graciela

[@amgozo2007]

Graciela Bombalova hi there, your work is outstanding i loved it! i have the same problem as that Jean have : good at charcoal and also ok with everything not relating to colors like pencils or ballpoint pens , but my problem with pastel and all colored mediums is i that have very little experience about how to mix many colors to get the exact one I want, or the exact tone! Should i do like you said and stick to the charcoal until it helps my to overcome this problem or keep trying with colors?! Thank you!

[@amrita4057]

It's awesome

[@eliezerviloriocruz7339]

[@VikasAwale]

[@antoniosnow4971]

[@ulkualparslan3634]

Şahane👏🇹🇷👏Bende pastel yapıyorum fakat portre ye cesaretim yok sizi izlerken etkilememek mümkün değil. Gerçekten büyük yeteneksiniz.kuru kaleme benziyor pastel mi yoksa karışık boyalar mı kullanıyor sunuz ?

[@martialcortes3704]

Bonjour. Magnifique. Puis je savoir quel support utilisez vous ? Pastelmat ? Papier velours? Pastel card ? Svp. 😍👍

[@bograart]

Hello, Thank you for your comments and following! It is not included in the videos but I use Fixative at the end of the work... :) Regards, Graciela

[@priyachakravartty6286]

This is very beautiful ,what pencil did you use to sketch her outline

[@kristiandonarquiza563]

Hi Graciala, Your work is amazing. Can i know what are the tools your using? canvas and other tools your using for the detailing. Thanks

[@bograart]

Kristian Don Arquiza Hello Kriatian, I use Canbson paper...And for details you can use some pastel pencils like Conte, Pitt paste CabhOtello, etc.. Bogra

[@MsBa0ba0]

Awesome !!

[@cre8tive_one]

I love watching your video's, I am curious what is the pencils that you use that almost look like they could be mechanical? I have been a water color portrait painter but am now crossing into pastels and in the stores near me I do not see anything like you are using . Is there a website that you purchase from?

[@bograart]

Tania, It is a Lead holder that can be found in internet. It´s a Koh-i-noor lead holder. Regards, Graciela.

[@artsandra5]

Woooow

[@meitalshahar1]

I love your paintings! what colors do use?

[@amandaswetmsp6424]

[@danipintus8511]

Hello again you are really a good artist!!!!!!!!!!!!...what kind of pastel do u use? thanks for your answer in advise daniela

[@bograart]

+Dani Pintus Hello Dani, It depends on what. Skin, hair, dress, etc. But I really like Schminke pastel. I also use Unisons, Rembrandts, Seneliers, etc. Best regards, Bogra

[@danipintus8511]

Thanks a loto for your answer. Dani

[@paolobertoncini6147]

❤ Complimenti per la tua abilità artista Io amo il tuo stile aristocratico Ti volevo fare una domanda Che carta usi per i pastelli secchi? ❤

[@cristianpucci5866]

excellent!!

[@angelaequd5583]

More than fantastic Do you use any fixative after the work is done?

[@bograart]

Angela Equd Hello Angela, Yes I use fixative at the end of the work to protect the painting.. This could dark a little the final work, Regards, Bogra

[@sayantansaha3427]

Thanks for this learning video... Could you please suggest whether febercasel pit pastel softpastel pencil can be used for the fine/ small work in portrait? Pls suggest.. thanks as always..

[@mial7383]

Hi! I love your drawing so much. I wonder the tools you used. Are them all soft pastels? Did you use any oil color pencil or something else? I just started learning soft pastel. But the soft pastel always create a lot of loose power on the paper, and color cannot stay. It ends up to have a lot of very light color. How did you make color so bright? Thanks a lot!

[@bograart]

Hello Mia, All of my pastels are soft pastels like Schminke, Unison, Rembrandt.. The soft pastel is the most pure pigment color that you can work with...but I can understand why you loose power on the paper.. Maybe the brands you use are not good enough..Or maybe you are using right brands in the wrong paper.. Regards, Bogra.

[@mial7383]

Graciela Bombalova Thank you! I will try more brands.

[@sushildeokar7183]

ok, i wii try to get it, thanks

[@inesaugusta]

[@priyachakravartty6286]

[@elyefrily2730]

[@juliettedemeeus4233]

I think they are stabilo colored pencil but I'm not sure...

[@agungugmsp4537]

after you finish do you need varnish or fixative?

[@u-nis]

How long did this take? I want to get into pastel art because i hate painting but i am curious how long pastel art like this takes vs painting.

[@akanshakapoor4446]

[@bograart]

Ronai Carvalho Hello Ronal..You could start with a small set (of 8) from Unison...They have special sets for portrait, so it is a good start and then you could try different brands, or buy one on one...Regards, Bogra

[@mariadelmaravila8864]

What is the best color for portraits? I bought the ivory canson mi-teinte but I would like to know which one you use to buy it
