First Time-Lapse of a Pastel Portrait

1/20/2016

VIDEO!
I'm pretty excited to have finally started working with video! My first attempt was a simple time-lapse (below) of the pastel portrait process. As time goes on I will be adding additional time-lapse videos, painting tips and tricks, short demos and eventually plan to have a video course.

Lisa! You are AMAZING! I've been reading your blog about pastels for a while now, and I just had to tell you thank you for your generosity in sharing your art. I'm so excited about your time-lapse video because it was awesome! You're an amazing artist and I hope that one day I will be able to take one of your workshops...

You made my day, Jill! Thank you so much. I apologize for the delayed response. I didn't realize you had commented. I would LOVE to have you join me for a workshop one day!

I am just blown away! I've always shied away from painting in pastels as I didn't like the 'chalky' look. But the smoothness you have achieved is just remarkable. Thank you for sharing. Any plans to make a full-length DVD of a painting?

Hi Diane! First, thank you SO much! I do like making pastels behave in ways that are uncommon for the medium. Yes! I have plans for full videos within the next year. I will probably make them available through my website...maybe on DVD. Thanks again!

Thanks, Nelia! I am happy to share. I have a step-by-step process that DOES make it pretty effortless, believe it or not. It takes time of course, but progressing through steps keeps me from getting lost in the painting.
