I’m 27, I’ve been drawing portraits since I was about 15 years old in mostly graphite pencil and charcoal. In the last few years, after seeing your videos I have been inspired so much. I have started using pastels and am so proud of my progress. I hope to one day achieve a level of beauty and realism that you achieve. Thank you so much for sharing your process with us.

It`s a brilliant portrait! Clear lines,soft colors and the best soft pastel portrait,i have ever seen in my life! I`m an artist too for years[actually 30 yrs],but with different materials,such as acrylics and sometimes when i make landscapes,i usually paint, with oil colors. But this is something different and very realistic!!! I`ll try your way,painting with soft pastels. Thanks a lot for sharing your work-talent. Thanks a lot Graciela! God bless you!!

Bravo senora! as a pastel artist myself i have learned great tips from watching your tutorials religiously. May i ask what type of paper you use? Using Canson Me-teintes with my finger- perhaps excessively- to shade causes fluffing in the paper.

I was so happy to see you posted another video. I learn so much watching your videos. You are amazing. Thank you for sharing your work and your process that you go through for your paintings. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Finished in just one day? wow

As a portrait artist whom, due to the modern type and expectations of people today, has been caught out in the very same way by working from photos. If you work from life you tend to avoid these minor problems of gender by using props or attitude in stance of clothing. But a truly inspirational use of pastels. I will be trying them instead of oils this week.

Amazing channel, amazing videos!!! Subbed!!
