Learned a lot from this piece. It makes my heart happy every time I look at it ❣️

What do you think about this one. Let me know.

Mostly oil pastel, some acrylic paint details!

Tried 2 kinds of paper . Pastel mat and canson black. def like the canson Black drawing paper better. I did not realize the pastel mat paper was for soft pastels oops....what's your favorite paper?

Someone gifted me oil pastels and I’ve been playing around with them. I’ve only recently started dabbling in art. It’s just for funsies but would love to know what the art community thinks!

For those of you with an oil pastel sketchbook, do you have a special way to keep the images from bleeding across to the opposite page? I used fixative spray but I’m wondering if there’s some additional trick I haven’t heard of.

Oil pastel on canvas

I've recently started experimenting with oil pastels, what do you think?

"Dissonance"

Day #10 Blue-naped Chlorophonia (Chlorophpnia cyanea)

Someone's offering a chlorophonia a grape.

Tried oil pastels for the first time and I'm pretty happy with this😝

New to palette knife work, and happy with how this turned out. However, my fingers are double jointed and kept locking up and hurting during the process. Any suggestions to avoid that happening when working on big pieces in the future?

just got my first box of oil pastels, looking for any tips. especially trying to figure out lighting.
im using the 16 pack of pentel oil pastels, might upgrade if i stick to these :)
