  • I like conte crayon better than charcoal. Whenever I use it, I feel like a renaissance artist for some reason!

    You had me laughing out loud so many times, especially when discussing how the pears don’t like each other. Everything you said makes complete sense. I followed an artist who had great technical execution, but something’s just missing in her work. She works off of photos that she takes, very poorly taken shots and the work is stiff, conveys zero feeling except “what’s wrong with this, why does it feels off?” I could never wrap my brain around until now. You have to know other artists like this…Ones who will never allow their work to be in an ugly sketchy stage, where all needs to be perfect at all times and it falls flat when others see it.

    You are a great speaker and narrator as you work. I loved your description of the process of capturing emotions through quick drawings, and what makes art unique. Keep making more videos.

    I like drawing with charcoal & recently tried soft pastels, which I found rather difficult & messy to use. The Conte Crayons sound like a good alternative. Thank you for your presentation.

      Same here. My great question is: Are these erasable? I bought Kohinoor Artists leads, somehow In white, dark sepia, light brown and Russet Aria. Russet Sepia from kohinoor is not erasable at aLl, while others are quit erasable.

      @@khaiber_kakar very late response, but no not really. A kneaded eraser can pick up some of the crayon, but they are partially wax based and the best you'll do is lighten the line to transparent.

    Pretty. Try using your igers. I tried paper towel too. Got the same results. But then used my fingers and it works.

    It took years, but I found an art supply co, Jackson’s, that offers many colors of conte Also, try putting down a “ground” of white in areas you want to blend later and you can get super blendiness

    The recipe for them is clay, pigment and graphite. So yeah they will feel more like a pencil.

    Hi can you use this crayons on smooth surface paper?thanks

  • @inertmatter1945
    @inertmatter1945 Před 3 lety

    Are these similar to colored pencil sticks like Prismacolor's Art Stix, or are they softer than colored pencil? I'm guessing they last longer than soft pastels too...since they don't break down as much.

    • @galeanaoutfit4265

      There are a variety of papers that are marketed as being good, or ideal for pastel use, which would also make them suitable for conte crayon as well. Canson Mi-Teintes is probably the most recognizable. But! I always like to give low budget alternatives that are suitable, or just plain interesting. You could try some of the following: construction paper (particularly black!), paper drop cloth from the hardware store (a personal favorite), or even a brown paper bag. Essentially you want something with a little bit of texture.
