So I'm still on this crayon kick, and wanted to try various crayons on a pastel ground. Pastel Ground is a product that Golden makes, which transforms your paper into a toothy pastel paper.
This was my "beginner's luck" piece. 10"x10" on gessoed paper
This is the piece I did in the demo. I used the materials mentioned in the video, plus various brands of oil pastel.
In this one I'm trying to copy the first piece, at top.
Here is a link to the Cretacolor Monolith pencils. I think everything else is in my previous post.
If you wanted to use bits of these lovely papers in collage over an acrylic base, how would you fix them--especially the Sennelier? Do you know of an oil based fixative spray that works well?

I have had some spam comments lately, advertising of stupid stuff. So I am moderating comments until I can figure out a better way to prevent spam. THANKS!
Thanks Jane, needed just some more inspiration !
ReplyDeleteAfter watching the previous crayon video, now I'm on a crayon kick too!
ReplyDeleteWouldn't gesso have enough 'tooth' to do this?

ReplyDeletemy kids gave me a box with 144 crayons and when I showed it to a friend, she said I should look you up - and she was so right!

ReplyDeleteWhat is the difference, using the acrylic ground versus using molding paste or pastel paper?
