Вставка
- Опубліковано 18 жов 2024
- Every landscape will contain foliage. Pastels are the simplest medium to portray it. In this demo, Master artist Johannes Vloothuis (Jo) will show you exactly how this should be done step by step. Jo has always recommended to thousands of artists that even if pastels are not your medium of choice, it serves as a perfect training vehicle to improve foliage in the other mediums. He has developed an infallible technique that will instantly improve your foliage. The demos will include: summer trees, autumn trees, winter frosted and bare trees, evergreens, and bushes. Come see what the hype of why thousands of artists won’t miss a free demo from Jo.
Johannes is an award winning artist and instructor for the Artists Network, publishers of several magazines. He is known for conveying the complexity of landscape painting into simple easy to understand terms.

Joe is the best teacher out there, none other are telling you anything, they demonstrate just a little and not telling you what and why they are doing. Joe is the most humble and generous artist and I learn so much from him every lesson. Thank you.
These classes are just incredible, I can't believe I am getting all this knowledge for free!
I’ve done oils and I’ve now switched to pastels. Originally I was a potter but during the Covid shutdown, I decided to teach myself to paint. I love pastels and I will say that I have learned more in during this demo than I have in the year of watching videos. You explain things amazingly clearly, thanks
There is a saying: “every master was once a beginner.” What distinguishes a master is they know when to break the rules. But to become a master you must first learn the rules, otherwise you won’t know what rules to break (or what rules to follow). What I love about Jo is he offers many rules of thumb, and his rules or tips on technique are practical and easy to follow. But it’s important to realize that although he makes it look easy, this is deceptive because pastels are not really that easy - they require a certain “touch” and an understanding of both drawing and painting principles because pastels are both a painting and drawing medium. What Jo is doing is providing guidelines to follow, but it takes practice to master the finer points, the intangible aspects that produce a masterpiece. But you must start somewhere. Jo provides a good starting point, a springboard from which to leap into your pastel journey, and I find his teaching style not only informative and entertaining, but also inspirational, and that is the hallmark of a great teacher.

Thank you for the clock analogy! It makes so much sense now!
So much to learn--just when I think I know a lot someone like you comes along and teaches me otherwise. Thank you!
A most excellent video I have been attempting to learn about Pastel P trees. In 10 minutes I have learnt so much . Live in Australia many varieties of Gum trees . Most excited you have opened a door for me will be watching more of your lessons. Thank you so much Miriam
I'd love to see Australia one day.
I stumbled upon this and I’m a convert! this information is incredible, thank you for your generosity 🙏❤️
I have to say this has been a VERY informative vid. Thanks for the info, Jo!
IHave taken Two class with him and my pastels painting as transform itself to the next level wright away. Exceptional teacher.
What I am trying to say is that it comes from deep knowledge of the craft.
Not sure if this guy is an artist or a wizard. Amazing talent and a great teacher.
Another fabulous tutorial, thank you, I’ve learned so much
thank you so much. I learned many things how to paint trees. How i WISH TO ATTEND.
I must say that I will be joining the classes . What a wonderful teacher Jo’s is .
I watched the the entire video of the snow bridge hoping to learn about applying pastel over watercolor. And… not much pastel used ,it was ok though . Maybe if I join the classes I see some watercolor with added pastel. Also loved your trees in which was very informative. Thank you Joe , Bravo to you Joe & June .
Thank you so much Jo... I will definately sign up for one of your live classes...
Pastel is a solid medium on its own and used in conjunction with watercolor it’s a gorgeous limitless combo❤❤❤❤❤
Watercolor under painting using complementary colors to the finished colors create a nice vibration.

Thank you loved the program

Thank you for valuable advice. I enjoyed the painting information about pastels.
I’m trying to build up supplies and will enjoy taking a real class soon
Interesting and useful for beginners. Demonstrate and explain thoroughly. 👍thank you for the sharing🙏
Excellent…thanks so much Jo!
Very clever clock visual, thank you
Love those frosted trees! I’m subscribed!
I only watched! Loved it!
Thank you, your video was very informative!
Brilliant, thank you so much
Beautiful
Thanks Joe,I'm painting along with oil pastels
Fab demo - thank you
Always loved the way you teach . Thank you for this again
Thank you for your knowledge! I am hooked!
Awesome demo…Joe is absolutely amazing.
You can use watercolor paper for pastel. You can remove the sizing from the paper by taking a piece of 80 grit sandpaper and gently rub the surface, and or apply clear Gesso. Let it dry and you are good to go!
I really enjoy working with pastels and acrylics but if you want to become a better artist there is nothing better then working in a media that intimidates you. I love a good challenge, bring on the watercolors!
I am learning watercolor, and love it. I would like to add pastel as well. I would really like to know more about your classes, I think you are an amazing teacher/instructor. I live in northwestern Montana, near Glacier N.P. I would appreciate any info you could send me on your teaching classes. Thank you so much Joe, your amazing!!!
Iam a beginner and have been starting using Joe’s book
Can I ask which pastel pencils do you use ? Thank you I have found this so interesting. 😊
Art Spectrum has a wonderful mister too that cuts down on the droplets. I find it works well, though I rarely have need.
Where in Southern Ont. ? I live in Haliburton, north of Lindsay, Ont. Your teaching is excellent!!!
wow..an amazing artist.. He is using terms I have never, ever heard from other artist and it'e VERY important to know...melodic and graceful lines...also discordent color...I wonder if there is a method to choosing the DISCORDENT color...or is it just random choice...? does anybody know? AND...WHERE CAN I FIND ALL OF HIS LESSONS? AKA.. LECTURES..Thank you so much Jo...and Cheryl...
I guess you can use a colour wheel. If the colour isn't from the same group. nor complimentary then it's more like a discordant one. Also you'd be able to judge for yourself if the discordant colour brought a "punch" to your painting.
Thank you so much. I learned a lot
Great teaching ‼️
He makes it look so easy! 😅
Im watching this a year later so i obviously mussed the classes 😂 Do u offer any packages to purchase videos of the classes after the fact?
Lol had to stop only because I didn't have my glasses on and I thought you were painting in pasta🤣so of course I wanted to know what that's about, good vid, no pasta though lol
It’s back
I am not watching this real-time, so I have missed Oct. 29th. Other classes?
How long are the class recordings available after purchase? Thank you!
You can go back to Artists Network to watch over and over and you can also download them to your devices. Even if you can't watch live (where you could ask questions) you can miss the class and still access and watch as long as you paid for the class.
@@wuznotbornyesterda Thank you!!
Thank you
What is the artist/teacher name, and how do I find his classes? Thanks
Surely pastels will either smudge, stick to glass due to static electricity or loose colour if sprayed?
Love these. I'm a traveler, so for me, it's the laptop I'm at constantly.......and I lucked out with a longer stay soon, so will get out my "stuff". Thanks for sharing these.....inspiring. So I took some photos today. Oh I love a large brush, right? Like a mop.....
What is tool you are blending with
How do I find your past classes.
Vertical, horizontal and broken lines are important in composition
awesome :)
Thank you for answering my question about the skyholes! Sadly I’m leaving to see the fall tree colors next Saturday, enjoyed this video so very much! Learned a lot!
Is the lesson downloadable?
Lascaux is. A good finish spray that doesn’t darken
What do you use to blend in the pastel?
Pipe insulation. Small piece.
We lost the audio
A training medium, no no no
I hate it when people doing recordings are unprepared or insert themselves into a lesson.
Ditto!
I wish the woman would leave the artist alone. Be quite woman !
It's annoying
Yes. I unfortunately I had to take a break from watching as I found it very difficult to listen to that lady constantly interrupting . A pity I feel.
You just lost me at …Bob Ross!
I wish Sheryl would stop talking in videos! We just want to see & hear the artist & his work. The interruptions are annoying.
I wish he would stop using the phrase, “most artists use”. There is no standard used by most artists.
Foliage...not Fo-ledge !
16:10 Trees dont look good in real life? Don't trees look good in real life? I disagree because I think the trees look very beautiful in real life, much better than your arrogant attempts to represent them.
so he doesn;t finish anything? ..this was all so weird
