A quirky little portrait using oil pastels this morning! 🎨
Honestly, so much fun to work with. There’s almost a sculptural quality to building up the layers with these Sennelier pastels. I experimented with a tracing sheet to smudge and smooth everything out, which created some great blending and texture.
I wanted to exaggerate the features a little, although it’s harder than it looks! Still, I’m enjoying the end result.
Now I’m thinking funky flowers in this style could be the next little experiment… What do you think? Should I give it a go?
Always good to step outside the usual and see what happens. ✌🏼
