William A. Schneider: Princess - Pastel
Schneider sets up his model in warm light in order to fully explain how the color temperature varies between light and shadow areas on the form.
Working from the live model, Schneider explains his compositional devices, use of the Munsell Color System in selecting a color scheme, and how to keep the Big Four (shape, value, color temperature, edges) in mind during the painting process.
This video is executed in pastel, but is full of useful information for artists in all media. William begins with a discussion of design elements. Viewers will be mesmerized by the emergence of the beautiful model from an abstract foundation of shapes and masses of color. This program is a must for the pastellist’s video library.
William A. Schneider: Pastel Painting Secrets
Master Artist William A. Schneider takes you step-by-step through a pastel portrait
Well known for his amazing oil paintings, Bill found that painting with pastels added an additional layer of interest and passion to his art career. He also found that many of the skills he used in oil painting were easily transferable to pastels.
He came to understand that pastels were just the next natural progression in his own career and a great addition to what he teaches in his workshops, which are attended by everyone from carpenters to doctors to professional artists.
And now you can learn directly from this great artist as Liliedahl Productions escorts you to your own front row seat to discover the treasures in Pastel Painting Secrets with master artist William A. Schneider.
Painting Real People
Bill returned to his deep love for art after starting a career in music and then the finance industry. If you have ever attended one of Bill’s workshops or watched him do a demonstration, you probably took notice of how he lights up as he shares his love for both art and teaching others.
When Bill sets out to create a portrait, his goal is to capture the essence of the model as a unique human being, going well beyond a mere rendering or “lookalike.” He aims to create an emotional response in viewers, allowing them the freedom to see the model as they really are — unique, beautiful, and without perfectly symmetrical features. He makes them real — just as we all are.
Wouldn’t you love to bring this kind of depth and meaning into your own artwork and paint portraits that truly honor those you are painting? Just imagine the joy this would bring to others and to you as an artist. Well, now is your chance!
