There are many ways to begin a pastel painting and many ways to use wet media in pastels, normally considered a dry media. There are also many ways to use wet materials or wet pastel techniques that are not just in the beginning of a painting but during a pastel painting. This video doesn't address those methods, but instead focus on the way beginning artists can use alcohol and water to start pastels. Avon Waters also says artists can use different kinds of alcohol, such as Everclear, Vodka, or denatured alcohol. Here he uses rubbing alcohol to start the pastel painting. By using alcohol beginners can quickly fill in the paper with values and color rather than blending with only dry pastels. Wet alcohol washes and water washes fill in the blank paper faster than just applying dry media and blending it into the nooks and crannies of the tooth of the pastel paper.
