    Chalk pastels & chalk pastel pencils work great over & under acrylic paint.....even in portraits. U can really achieve a unique but familiar look.....aged & traditional while enjoying the benefits of modern tools such as fast dry times. When u r in the zone & would prefer to continue with layers, no need to wait or switch to another painting. Thanks for the content! Much respect ✌🏻

    I met Paula, very briefly, while she was Artist-in-Residence at the National Gallery. She incorporated many of the staff into the sequence of paintings she made for the restaurant in the new wing of the gallery. A truly amazing, and deeply disturbing, on occasion, artist. And a wonderful woman. One of the great European artists of our time.

    I am really enjoying these videos; they are liberating. My daughter found art school to be really constricting, U of C doesn't have a great art faculty; so she went into art history/German/linguistics; but has watched these videos and left muttering about leaving the country and really studying art elsewhere.

      Maybe she can look into online courses at the better schools, considering what happened to Paula Rego when she attended the Slade School of Fine Art.

    • @squirrel8161
      @squirrel8161 Рік тому

      I enjoyed New York Academy of Art. I did 12 weeks at Slade and found it constricting - too much theory and too little skills training. Did a month in Florence and found it too constricting because it was too traditional even though they actually taught us painting skills. NYAA was my personal happy medium. Expensive studying in NYC though.

  • @Divertedflight
    @Divertedflight 4 роки тому +6

    Looks like Katy is using Lascaux fixatitve. Lascaux claims it's not smudge proof, but doesn't change the appearance. Apparently it's difficult using a fixative that sets a pastel picture without changing the way it looks. I don't know what Rego uses, but Degas used a casein based one.

    • @wackity.7879

      @Jjjcs 4 роки тому +2

      There are probably no fixatives that doesn’t changes your image even a bit, including pastel or charcoal work.

      Don't worry. You're not taking too long. It can be a slow process and people work at their own pace. There's no right or wrong speed for creating art. We paused every 20 minutes so that the artist and model could take a break. See if that works for you :-)
