Transforming Effects of Water Soluble Wax Pastels! Watch the Magic Happen
Witness the transforming effects of Wax Pastels!!
They are literally like brilliant coloring crayons for artists, and they offer a vibrant, dynamic option for creative expression. Even more exciting is combining them with soft pastels for some truly stunning and colorful results. In today's tutorial, we're diving deep into the world of water-soluble wax pastels and soft pastels, exploring how these two mediums can work together to create magical results.
Here are some of the benefits of Neocolor 2 Wax Pastels:
🎨 Joy of Creation: Often we need product that inspires play and creativity. That is definitely the case with these wax pastels.
🎨 Vibrant Reactions with Water: The magic truly happens when you add water to these wax pastels. Color seems to burst into bloom with water or alcohol.
🎨 Unlimited Layering Abilities: Using these as an underpainting doesn't sacrifice any layering ability when you apply soft pastels.
As always, you do not have to have this product to follow along. There are plenty of other mediums that can be used in place of the Neocolor 2 Wax Pastels, such as, watercolor, acrylic ink, gouache and more.

More to come! I really love them!
Beautiful little painting.
The Caran Dach neocolor 2 are a lot of fun. And they're lightfast and less granular looking than the inktense blocks. They are luxurious, and priced accordingly! 😅 If you want a similar effect and you have watercolors, you could achieve it by first putting down watercolor, letting it dry, and then putting down darker shades of watercolor for gestural lines and shapes, letting that dry, and then moving on to soft pastels.

Thanks for the tutorial, Susan. I'm not sure if you are aware of the sad news, but Terry Ludwig (founder of Terry Ludwig Pastels) passed away on February 20 at the age of 82. He was a practicing Christian with a strong faith in Jesus Christ. In addition to creating his pastel manufacturing company, he also came up with the brilliant idea of using pipe foam insulation for blending soft pastels.
❤🎉⚘️beautiful painting. Love the orange and yellow flower's against the green blue folliage background.

Gorgeous!
Love this!
I've had Neocolor IIs for so long and didn't use them for a long time, you've got me appreciating them :) It was very surprising how a little bit of that blue really took over and dominated the pinks underneath! Thanks for the closeup at the end, that was very informative!
Thanks Susan for this great painting👍🎨.

$65??? You don't need this. Use oil pastels with Turpenoid or paint thinner. 😊

Interesting…. I’ll have to try that. Thanks.
I have a 12 set of Staedtler wax pastels water soluble, but they aren’t anywhere close to the quality of these.

There's more than one color wheel. Check out the Munsell system and the YURMBY wheel, both are different from the one you may be used to. Color theory is a theory, not an exact science.
