Unifying Pastel Painting Colors

Video Transcript

"Now, we're creating a painting. The painting has got some unity. If the painting is to work, the painting should have some color unity. I was just working on the flowers up there. The flowers, we were using the reds. And, we have some of the same kinds of colors in this foreground piece of cloth that forms the table. So, I'm going to use the same red that I had in the flowers. And, I'm going to start putting in some of the flower patterns that are down here. And, right up here in the front right at the edge of where the cloth falls there's a large red rose. So, let's go ahead and use our red into our rose and create the rose shape. And, then there's a couple of more right in here. And, another one here. And, another one here. And, one over here. And, another one here. And, another one here. And, here. A couple over there by the kitty's foot. And, another here. And, a group of them in this area. And, another over here. This one, just the edge maybe is visible and a couple of little spots here and there. And, there's a red edge around that area right in there. So, let's just go ahead and add that red edge and some of the patterning that we're seeing. Establish that that's a complex form that's some got interesting shapes, some scroll work. Some more red in here. More red in here. There's more of that same kind of patterning back in here. So let's just frame that up. And we're basically working the whole painting at the same time."
