Claire, don’t blow your pastels, not good for you breathing, just shake off the excess in a garbage container on the floor next to you. You don’t want those particles in the air. I love what you are doing, love your accent as always. I am finding that I was too careful in applying the pastels, you have shown me I can press some and get an outstanding outcome.

I only have my phone to watch you on. So please always zoom in for details. I love your work.

you have opened my eyes!!!🤓, Clair your"da bomb"

I love your choice of colours for the painting, and your background is so beautiful! I knew that technique but I never thought about using it. Your demonstration makes me want to try ! 😘 I love your metallic paint set too ! Thank you for sharing, Claire! 😘💕💕💕

Excellent! What a great technique! Thank you!

Claire, this was an absolutely wonderful demonstration of incorporating hard pastels and watercolor into an image. I would love to try this method soon. Thank you for sharing this with us. It brings joy and hope to us hobbyists; “joy’ in knowing what is possible and gives us “hope” that our projects will be mini masterpieces. Lisa🕊

Beautiful! Would you recommend workable spray on the pastel if you want to finish the page with regular colored pencils? Thank you Claire!

I love the video, I love the colours, I love the sloth. Would I need to use a fixative at the end? I cant quite work out what I would do to remove the pastel if I were to use coloured pencils instead of paint, and if the pencils work over fixative spray? Many thanks for this tutorial.

Hi! If you google pastel fixative spray on Amazon you’ll get plenty of choices - just trial it on a spare piece of paper first and use it very sparingly. Pastel can be lifted fairly easily with an ordinary eraser xxx

Alegria, alegria. Gratidão.

Hi Claire! Can you use watercolour pencils over soft pastel? Or the water will take over the pastel?... And if you use a sealer over the soft pastel and then use the watercolour pencils?... Thanks, hugs from Costa Rica. Pura Vida

Hi ! I think it’s a bit risky. Watercolour over the pastel would turn it blotchy I think. I have never tried it over sealed pastel. If you’re going to give it a try, try on plain paper outside of your book first as a test.

So miss you

What did you draw the stems of the flowers in with plz??

Could you do this with oil pastels Claire?
