Pastels

Post by _zeezrom »

Oil pastels = heaven

The way they rub into the paper and the way they feel in your fingers. Heaven!
Oh for shame, how the mortals put the blame on us gods, for they say evils come from us, but it is they, rather, who by their own recklessness win sorrow beyond what is given... Zeus (1178 BC)

The Holy Sacrament.

I used to do a fair bit of illustration work in oil pastels before computer graphics overtook the publishing world.

They are lovely, and always reminded me of crayons in my childhood. Have you experimented with using different colors of art paper?

I used a warm gray color of paper when doing anatomical stuff.
This, or any other post that I have made or will make in the future, is strictly my own opinion and consequently of little or no value.
