I 70 and just started painting 6 months ago. Didn't realize I was that hard of hearing. I've been shouting to much. Thanks, I enjoyed your lesson on whispering. I'm eating ,waking, and sleeping pastel painting. Not too late to the table of painting.
I whisper, I call and then I shout! Love your result, as always! You're a great teacher and have helped me immensely with my own touch in my work! TY!!
Wow Karen, all of your content is great, but mark making is so vital to successful painting, and it's not talked about near enough by artists. Whispering and shouting, I love it. Thoroughly enjoyed this one (and all of yours) This one really drove the point home for me. Thank you so much. p.s. you should add one of those "Thanks$" buttons above so folks can make on the spot donations! Thanks again!
I have been watching your videos for over a year. I haven't been able to work with my pastels for over 30 years but I love them. You have been such a good teacher and inspiration to me. I don't know if I am able to show you my first attempt or not, but I wanted to thank you for your demo's here on UA-cam.
I have learned so much watching you paint and teaching us so much with your varied lessons. I would say in between the whispers and the shouts are statements. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
Thank you Karen, a wonderful painting and an extensive demonstration of creating just the right marks! It looks like inside voice is your middle ground mark name! Thank you for sharing this amazing video with us.
"Shouting Marks" and "Whisper Marks"- brilliant descriptions- Marks and layers really contribute such a huge aspect to the finished painting- color light and darks, etc- are important, but marks i think really speak to an artist's capabilities and understanding- Variety in marks is also very important- I love a mix between Realism and "Impressionism"- or Even "Abstact-ism" (is that a word?) of the 'shouting marks'- mixed together with realism, it really gives he eye a treat and workout pulling the viewer into the scene more i think- The photographer Peterson used to call it 'Screaming Babies", (IE Bright jarring instances within hte scene that immediately draw attention away from where the photographer wants to viewer to look) but his idea was to avoid them in photography because it distracts- He stressed looking at the whole scene thoroughly to eliminate them- However with Art i think it adds much to the painting when done judiciously- as it also displays the artist's mastery of the media when done correctly-
Thank you so much for this fantastic tutorial, Karen! ⚘️ I have used about the same pressure the whole time, and no whispering at all... And no shouting at all - just some kind of "talking" ... 🎨 Think you just solved my biggest issue with mark making! 🙏 Time to try this out! 👋 Love your videos! ❤️
That was another fantastic video Karen, even after so many years I still have to hold myself back to whisper when I start a painting, I’m getting there ,! this months Patreon is excellent as always. So would a ‘ murmur ‘ describe the in between mark, keeping to a vocal sounds.
between whispering and shouting, "conversational"? ;). love watching your painting demos and need to take a class with you! Inspires me to go to the Lavender festival in WA state this month!
Love your very latest demos Karen ! And new directions as well. Want to find your Patreon channel can't find link...? (have been 'stuck' for a week) and with you feel the slow process of become unstuck - today! You are such a fantastic teacher and glorious paintings to watch you create - what JOY !
Another beautiful painting and great instruction. It seemed that the trees magically became trees. Landscapes are a challenge for me but in my sorting of reference pictures last night I came across a number of photos of fields of flowers that reminded me of you. Inspired by this video, i plan on giving them a try. I think my biggest challenge is struggling with knowing what colors to use in the underpainting.
Hi Karen .. do you have a video on using different sizes and small broken pieces of pastel to create different marks. Fir a beginner who has a whole load of full pastels it’s difficult to know whats best to do ?? Love your work 😊
@@angiegouldster8724 Awesome! We spent two months on mark making so be sure to visit the home page and do a search for mark making. I don't have a specific video on using small pieces but there are over 300 videos available so lots to discover!!
Hi Karen! Love your videos as always but can you make sure your editor is reviewing the video pre and post uploading? Especially for those who are wearing headphones, the range in volume is greater than the difference between your whispers and shouts when using pastels. A little ironic. Haha. Please have your editor regulate the sound out put. PLEASE. Thank you.
I will have to look into sound regulation. I do the editing and I only know the basics. This is the first time I have heard there is a problem with the sound so I will need to do some studying on how to regulate the sound. Thank you for letting me know there is a problem.
I used to show it but I got a lot of negative feedback for using fixative inside the studio. It is easier to do it off camera outside due to moving cameras and lights etc. You can watch some older videos to see me spray. Basically I give a very light spray. You don't want to get the paper wet with the spray so keep the can moving!!

I've been shouting to much.
Thanks, I enjoyed your lesson on whispering.

Not too late to the table of painting.
a whisper, a shout.... and the in-between is a 'remark'..... This is such a gorgeous painting. Remarkable!
Thank you very much!
I whisper, I call and then I shout! Love your result, as always! You're a great teacher and have helped me immensely with my own touch in my work! TY!!
Thanks for your kind words!
Love your work andAnd you’re a great teacher
Thank you very much!
you're the master. In between a whisper and a shout coule be called "inside voice" lol
I love watching your videos and always learn so much! What about humming? Whisper -> Hum -> Shout? Have a great rest of the week! 😊
Great suggestion! Thanks for watching!

Noted! I appreciate your feedback and support!! Thanks for watching!
Hey Karen
I love your painting !
I think the difference between a whisper and a shout might be a “ Note “ of color.
Beautifully done. It is so helpful to hear your reasoning behind what you are doing in terms of color, touch and composition.
Thank you so much! I appreciate you watching!
As a devout purple-worshipper, this makes me very happy! 💜
Yay!! Me too!
I have been watching your videos for over a year. I haven't been able to work with my pastels for over 30 years but I love them. You have been such a good teacher and inspiration to me.

You’re welcome 😊 Thanks for watching!
Terrific lesson, as always. And another beautiful painting is born! Thank you for sharing with us.

That was another fantastic video Karen, even after so many years I still have to hold myself back to whisper when I start a painting, I’m getting there ,! this months Patreon is excellent as always. So would a ‘ murmur ‘ describe the in between mark, keeping to a vocal sounds.
Glad you enjoyed it! I like the murmur!!
Whisper. Talk. Shout. We used that in regards to hair colors and styles too.
Very helpful and a wonderful painting. I fill the tooth early..am going to try to paint some failed paintings again using these tips
Wonderful! I'm glad you found it helpful!
Thanks!
Thank you very much Kathy!! Your thanks is much appreciated!!❤️
between whispering and shouting, "conversational"? ;). love watching your painting demos and need to take a class with you! Inspires me to go to the Lavender festival in WA state this month!
How about Whisper, SING, & Shout? Your painting is glorious!
Great demo. I'm new to pastels and learning so much from your tutorials. Just wish pastel supplies weren't so expensive 🙃
Thanks! Welcome to the wonderful world of pastels!!
Incredible artwork 💕
Thank you!!
Great inspiration. Thanks for sharing

Hi Karen , I follow you and I learned a lot from you.. would you pls show your finished painting to beginners like myself, thank you❤
Thanks for watching!! I always try to show the finished painting. I will make sure I don't overlook this!
Great video! Maybe have whisper, conversation, and shout words for the variety of marks.
Look up Barbara Groff and Ann Gillissipe great pastelists
Good
Thanks!
Seria possível vc mim orientar com o liquitex , acrílico médiuns, obrigada
Between whisper and shout ...hummmmm
In between a whisper and a shout might be “‘talking”? Just have to say your mastery of colour and contrast is epic ✨
Thank you so much!! I appreciate your comment and your suggestion!
What's in-between a whisper and a shout? Normal talking voice. Or inside voice. 😂
Yes!! Your inside voice!!
Yes! I’m a teacher and I was going to suggest calling it inside talking voice! Great lesson and a beautiful painting!
so whisper talk and shout. Three phases of mark making 😀
Inside voice
A medium tuch
💕💯🎨🎨🎨
Between a whisper and a shout us “use your indoor voice”

Why didn’t you show spraying the fixative? It’s important for budding pastel artists.
I used to show it but I got a lot of negative feedback for using fixative inside the studio. It is easier to do it off camera outside due to moving cameras and lights etc. You can watch some older videos to see me spray. Basically I give a very light spray. You don't want to get the paper wet with the spray so keep the can moving!!
'"Conversation" or "speaking" is in between a whisper and a shout
Thanks!! That works!
“Inside voice”
This is a good way to put it!
Whisper humm then shout
A mumble 😊
Shwishter
Great demo. I think the volume between whispering and shouting is simply, "speaking."
An Inside voice - for in-between shouting and whispering
Use your inside voice, not whisper or shouting.
In between shouting and whispering……….just a “gentle word…” ?
Speak soft… would be between a whisper and a shout 🤷
Yes!!
Talking.
