Not Too Happy

It doesn't even really look like water....
But, as I should remind myself, it's all a learning process and blah blah blah.....
This oil pastel is SUPPOSED to be light on water.  Ya know, like all rippily and all.
I don't know.  Something went wrong.  Maybe its the colors I chose to use.
I think I'll try and study some photos of rippily water and see if that sheds any light on where I went wrong.
Anyway, maybe better luck next time...

Rainy Day

What better thing to do on a rainy day then do an oil pastel?!  I haven't done an oil pastel in forever; I used for the first time some oil pastels I got from my dad for Christmas, and they were sooooo nice to work with! They glided on the page like actual paint!  So anyway, I did a little piece using LOTS of color, haha, I hope ya'll like it, and can tell what it is, haha.

St. Paddy's Day

I haven't drawn in absolutely forever, and consequently feel very guilty about it.  So, as today is St. Patrick's Day, I decided to draw a sheep (cause ya know, there are sheep in Ireland).  I'm not too happy with how the sheep's hair...(fur? coat?  fuzz? fluff?). It looks a little like scales, instead of matted hair/fur/coat/fuzz/fluff.  


So there it is.
