I have um'd and ah'd about investing in some artist grade oil pastels for a while now but I enjoy working with oil pastels so much that I have decided to go for it and order some. There is a set of 'Portrait Colours' that I have my eye on.
Linking this post to WOYWW.
New oil pastels. Yum! I bet you will have a blast using them and wish you had never waited. I have heard they are superb. Hope you get excited when the package arrives. Happy Wednesday! {{Hugs}}

It's always good to invest in yourself and your art and buy the best supplies you can afford. I used to teach art to little kids and I always gave them the best I could get for them. When I ran out of classroom budget I begged, and borrowed, then bought stuff for them out of my own money! Yay..go for it!!

ReplyDeleteI'm always in awe of people who can paint or draw so you should buy whatever your art requires.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet little portrait. I hope you get the pastels you are after - I think it's always worth investing in the best you can afford, you'll notice the difference I'm sure!
