This is a request from a few of my Patreon's so here is the short version. The Long version for Patreon will be on there middle of July 2023.

Here is a list of Caran d ache rich pastel pencils colours I usually use: numbers...
Primary colours...
Reds... 788-060, 080
Yellows... 788- 240, 530, 035
Blue... 788- 145
Orange 788-052
Purple 788-099
Green 788-719
Carbothello pencils are... green 1400/585, red... 305, orange, 221, lemon yellow 205, yellow ochre 685 and white 100. I don't use this brand's blues as some of the lightfastness is poor. so I use Conti a Paris ones for them,... No10, No 06, No 22 and No46. Also the purple red for the deep shadows ... No19
If you can afford it I would recommend buying the sets as the extra colours would be very useful for clothes and backgrounds and can work out cheaper per pencil... affiliate links below.

This is great! It's true that you can never find the right color and I had always been told you can't really easily mix soft pastels. This shows that is very wrong. Makes me happy that I don't have a need to buy new soft pastels, just use what I have. Thank you. Your art is so beautiful as well
Thank you Raelynn, I have always kept things nice and straight forward, colour fascinates me so much. All the very best🙏
Love this
Superb Dave. Thank you 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it... appreciate you watching the video. All the very best 🙏😊
Thank you, will heed to your instructions ❤
You’re welcome Maria😊 🙏
color richness is acheived early very interesting
It was fascinating, the ugly stages was extreme this way, Just had to persevere with the mixing on top with pencils, which seem to work. 😊🙏
I am a recent Patreon member and I so appreciate the “whole experience” you bring to your videos. I also find art to be a spiritual journey.
I am just starting to be interested in portraiture, and I look forward to learning a lot from you!
Hi Amy, thanks for taking the time to give such great feedback, thrilled you are enjoying the Patreon experience and share the connection to the spiritual aspect of the art journey. All the very best with your portraiture. 😊🙏
I am a bit of a snob in the art world, having had both parents deeply involved, even at an international level. Having said so, I would like to express my most vivid compliments for your work sir, I really appreciate your narration as well. You have a new subscriber, cheers!
Thank you so much for your kindwords... appreciate the great feedback. Thanks for subscribing and watching my videos. All the very best 🙏
This has opened my eyes to pastels in a big way. I’ve always tended to avoid them because I usually work light to dark with Magic Markers, then go textural with graphite, Pencil Crayons and other mediums like Gouache for highlights and sometimes watercolours etc. I loved how you explained both the ‘thinking and approach’ required at times when in the act of drawing/painting etc, as well as how to use complementaries to neutralise a hue. This is a beautiful thing to me. I have subscribed and thanks very much!
Hi Pete, Pastel medium is a great way to express colour... the use of the complementaries to neutralise a hue is crucial to achieving a realistic look. All the very best... thanks for watching and subbing. 🙏
Amazing work.. thank you for sharing your artistic skills☺️ I’m an artist but I do pencil sketches but want to broaden my skills using color. This video is very helpful. Thank you
My pleasure Joan. Colour is so addictive... you did right be focusing on pencil sketches first, values are gained and understood in black and white, this really helps with seeing colour values. all the very best.... thank you so much for watching. 🙏😊
currently an art student using soft pastels in class, loved watching your process! thank you for talking about what to do when you’re overwhelmed by all the colors, it happens to me all the time
Glad the video was helpful, I like to keep things nice and straight forward, less colours the better.... thanks for watching... all the very best with your art studies. 🙏
Always lovely. A great lesson for pastel and for life…I always feel more centered and calm after your videos….thank you for the gentle reminders to be kind to ourselves❤
Thank you so much for your kind words, thrilled you enjoyed watching my videos... means the world to me 🙏😊
Lovely technique and presentation!
Thank you so much Carol... appreciate the kind feedback. 🙏
Well done !
Cheers! 🙏
Wow, this is awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Glad you liked it! You are very welcome... thanks for watching! 🙏
Mesmerising as usual! A pleasure to watch your work.
Thank you Cherry, appreciate you watching my videos. 😊🙏
I love your content. I have been on a journey after discovering a hidden passion at 52. Been drawing for two years now and draw mostly people's pets just now. I have just taken the jump to colour with pastels and I'm struggling with colour and colour theory. I feel and am starting a new journey and find you as well as well your content to be very grounded and practical, so thank you for sharing such amazing content. I will be joining you on patreon in the next few days 🎉
Hi Dougie, congratulations on finding your passion for art, which can be very healing and a wonderful way to connect to the energy around us. Great way to start creating is b/w work as this gives good foundation with values. Colour is such a joy and is very addictive. I try to keep things very simple. | studied many of the old masters ways many, many years ago and stayed with their ideas of the importance of a simple palette. I have developed my Pastel technique from what I do with Oils. Look forward to welcoming you to the Patreon community. All the very Best... Dave 🙏
@@DavePortersArt it shows in your passion and. Narration. My sister is the real artist of the family. She was in a coma for two months with COVID and through that time learning to draw gave me a way to feel connected to her. She has recovered somewhat but not able to do her art.
It has brought us so much closer and she is thrilled at seeing my art so can't wait to get some colour to show her.
Thanks for the reply and see you on your patreon👍
You are a wonderful, down to earth teacher. Thank you!

@@DavePortersArt Thank you for your advice, Dave. I enjoy art but find the process quite daunting at time. I'll certainly give your method of opening the mind a go.
Amazing work !

Great work sir
Nice work! Keep it up! Thank you for sharing. New Sub here..💕👍
Cheers! Thanks for the sub and watching 👍🙏
Dave, this looks amazing. I think the pastel sticks going down first gave it more depth. I need to try this. Every time I try the pastel sticks I get in trouble. Great job
Hi Dave. they are interesting to apply, just keep the pressure very light and be careful not to add too much pigment... that's the key . 🙏😊
❤thank you so much for sharing ❤
I adopt it to my oil painting process ...
It helpt me a lot HOW you explain
I ❤YOUR CHANEL

I learnt a lot from your professional painting videos. However I have been drawing for long years still I face difficulties in paint rinckles. I appreciate if you could focus on the easiest professional way to paint rinckles using pastel?
Thank you for your useful efforts.

Thrilled you have learnt a lot from my video Rasha, here is a link for a video I created just for wrinkles ua-cam.com/video/09nC75_lrmw/v-deo.html All the best 😊🙏
@@DavePortersArt Thank you dear artist Dave for the link you sent. That's very kind of you to reply that quickly. I will go through it I am sure it will be very useful as usual.
Best regards
Very interesting video. Love the application of layers that sort of includes an underpainting in colors and values. The flesh tones are lively and beautiful! I just purchased a large set of pastel pencils from conte and am enjoying watching your pencil work.
Glad you enjoyed it Emily! Conté à Paris is all I used many year ago... great brand and very good value. Thanks for watching 🙏
Stupendo!
Thank you, thanks for watching! 😊🙏
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Het was leuk om te zien, mensen tekenen vind ik precies wel eng. Zoveel kleuren...😮.
Bedankt voor het kijken... zeer gewaardeerd 🙏
One good thing about oil pastel is that it does not stick to hands.
Yes I know what you mean. 🙏
Thanks Dave! That was very helpful! Love your accent too ! Derbyshire? Notts? I work in pastels but have never attempted a portrait so far.
You are very welcome Ros, I from Nottinghamshire, my mother was Yorkshire so I have a mix. All the best with portraiture... thanks for watching. 🙏
I never learned pastel. Wish I had. Saw a bulgarian alcoholic do a portrait of my mother once, in Sofia back in the 80's. Even wasted he made a superb portrait - before being thrown out of the bar by the owner for making a pass at my mother. Can't deny his talent for drawing though!
I bought a really expensive set of pastels years ago, tried for a while but gave up. Maybe one day!
But when I was a lad at school, drawing every week, I made a breakthrough once. Did a homework mission, and decided to do montage page of Motorbike Racing. Central to the composition was a portrait of Carl Fogarty. I spent a long time sketching it, then as I went to colour it (oldschool Derwent Artists crayons), I stared at the reference and I could have sworn ... I see PURPLE there, on his face! And I see GREEN! WHY am I seeing GREEN? I thought....
But something told me to go with it. So layering up from darks to lights, I went from black to purple to green (!!!!) and then started with the creams and yellows and blending it all togehter. And I ended up with a hyper realistic looking Fogarty. That was the breakthrough moment for me, drawing from life / reference was never the same again. I had learned how to LOOK and how to SEE! Putting it down always came easy to me, drawn as a hobby since I was a child ... but once you learn to look and see, you make big bounds!
Believe in your eyes.
Hi, amazing experience you have had and are having... once you open the heart and let go of thinking about things too much a veil lifts and you see reality as it truly is.... a beautiful, wonderful embracing of colours and energy. I love to spend time in the shadows of trees, blows my mind and magical the feeling is. All the very best... thanks for taking the time to share your experience with the community... best wishes with your art journey. 🙏
@@DavePortersArt Yes, I agree! I think being able to draw - learning how to disconnect your brain from your knowledge and experience and just LOOK and SEE whats in front of you - the colours and the shapes etc, not only does that give you a true ability to draw it also makes you look at the world differently.
Trees (as you say) and their colours, bushes and plants, old buildings, rusty scaffolding, even people - you begin to train your brain to really appreciate whats in front of you, and it makes the world an awesome place.
Pity that most of us (myself included) often fall into the trap of living so fast, always going somewhere doing something, we rarely get chance to stop and look. That's maybe one of the things I enjoy most about drawing, is being able to chill ... and really spend some time looking and appreciating the world.
Your work is stunning, I also do portraits but I can't get depth in very brown eyes. Could you do a similar drawing to this one but with dark brown eyes? Thank you for sharing. I'm going to sub and like! Also, forgive me if you have said, what type of paper are you using?
Great suggestion Charles! will add it to the list of portraits to do. Thanks for the like and sub. The paper I use is Pastelmat dark grey. Thanks for watching 😊🙏
wooooooooooooooooooow
Thank you 🙏
I liked your video. I liked it because you only use the primary colors and some secondary ones, instead of those pastel artists who use hundreds of colors. Can I see your full video somewhere? Maybe on your Partreon channel? Thanks and regards. Raül
Hi Raul, thanks, I try to keep things nice and simple. Please check out my Patreon page there is a realtime video and audio, I give all my approach as I progress. Once joining Patreon you have access to every tutorial on there... here is the link... daveportersart.co.uk/patreon-pastels-and-graphite/ all the very best 🙏😊
😍😍😍😍
thank you 🙏
Have you ever used "greening" for flesh tones as a base layer? I have used it a couple of times and it seems to give a little more depth to the skin. Also, if you use only primary and secondary colors what do you do with all those other colors in the pencil box?
Hi Dan, I have seen this done before with the green... I felt it made the skin tone unnatural tbh in my experience, I do use green a lot to de-saturate the red to give natural looking values, but adding the green for base layer didn't seem to work well for me. I use the other pencils in the box for clothes and backgrounds, then add the subtleties over the top with the primaries to achieve the correct colour blends. 🙏😊
What paper does he use?
Pastel Mat it is awesome to work on. 🙏
Are the sticks regular or oil pastels?
They are soft chalk pastels, my method of colour mixing should work with any medium. Thanks for watching 🙏
is it possible to send me mail a d link as wish improve chalk and oils pastel

Hello, thank you for your help and your videos. I wanted to ask you whether you use fixing spray for your paintings and if so which one do you use? Thank you very much.
Hi Rose, the beauty with Pastelmatt ( the surface I use) is that the pastel pigment clings to the tooth, it is like zero dust. I don't fix my work as it dull the colours, I wrap them in glassine paper if storing them or frame them under mount and glass. Thanks for watching. 😊🙏

Me encantaría que sus videos estuvieran subtitulados en español,podría ser posible? Su trabajo es fabuloso y me estoy perdiendo su conocimiento,es un artista😅
Hola, es posible... primero selecciona el ícono de opción de subtítulos debajo del video en la parte inferior derecha. luego haga clic en el ícono de configuración (parece una rueda). Luego haga clic en Subtítulos/CC1 Seleccione traducción automática... luego elija Español. Si la traducción automática no está disponible como opción... haga clic en configurar resaltado en azul en la parte inferior y cambie su configuración para incluir subtítulos generados automáticamente. Espero que esto ayude. 🙏
Muchísimas gracias,ya puedo aprender con usted, he conseguido ponerlo en español, gracias, muy amable.
Thanks Dave. Learned a lot from your clips. Was wondering if you stick strictly with Rembrandts for skin tones. I usually start with Schmenke or Sennelier and use my Rembrandts for background saturation as they work great for blending while keeping the brilliance in pigment. Do you keep it simple or do you add other pastel sticks? Thanks Dave. Love your work!
You are welcome, thanks for watching... I haven't used many brands with sticks only Rembrandt, here are a couple of links where I have used premix colours in the tutorials. ua-cam.com/video/GHnbOp8-ao0/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/OX2uLjoeSlM/v-deo.html All the best, thanks for loving my work. 😊🙏
How do you do olive skin?
Hi Barbara... check out this video... ua-cam.com/video/vEwWXIlKqVY/v-deo.html
Brilliant, I always learn something new from you and have made my understanding of shadows using secondary colours easy. Thank you Dave
Hi Jan, thank you... thrilled you are getting value from my videos. You are very welcome. Thanks for watching! 😊🙏
magnificent work!
Thank you! Cheers! 🙏
Enjoyed watching your video Dave thanks for sharing 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thrilled you are enjoying watching my videos... you are welcome. Thanks for watching 😊🙏
Really enjoyed this video.. First time I’ve heard a pastelist use primaries and colour theory to neutralise colours. Been learning more about this because I love watercolour. Hasn’t stopped me buying 75 tubes though! Now I’m trying to use a more limited pallet across the board with all the mediums I paint with.
Glad you enjoyed it Robyn! I got the idea from my Oil Painting technique I use the same pallete no matter what the medium is and it seem to work. Perfect for watercolours. 😊🙏
edjack here.. great vid.! youre technique tho is still awesome. i think the mistake i use to make with sticks is i would try to nail the colors straight away and then manipulate them andthat dont work. but your way will work like your pencil way i believe
Thanks Edjack, It is the same way for sure that I use with the pencils for the subtleties. It as interesting to add the rich colours down first. 🙏😊
Excellent as always, love your videos.
Hi William, thank you so much, appreciate the love for my content. Thanks for watching, much appreciated. 🙏😊
Really enjoyed your video. I wanted to see someone demo pastel portrait painting and was very interested in your combination with pencils. Very instructive and was surprised at how totally the combination blends the pencil and the medium soft pastel. They even even layer well. Thank you for sharing this information.
Glad it was helpful for you Emily! You are very welcome thanks for watching! 🙏😊
Love your honest narration. You always inspire me. Thanks so much. Keep them coming ❤
You are so welcome Lynette, it is great to know my work inspires you... more to follow for sure. 🥰🙏
c'est magnifique, délicat . Merci pour cette vidéo
Merci pour les gentils mots Med. vous êtes les bienvenus... merci d'avoir regardé 🙏
Love, love the presentation! I am new to pastels - so helpful.
Thrilled you love how the video come across Diane. All the very best with your pastel journey... thanks for watching 🙏
Thanks Dave, you make it look so easy! Will certainly give this technique a go.
You are welcome Trevor, I just flow with the moment and just observer. I keep out of the way. 🙏😊
Sir which papers do you use?
Pastelmat 🙏
