Trying oil pastels for the first time! | art process video 🎨 

Hi friends!
Join me in today's video as I dive into the world of oil pastels for the first time! I'll be sharing my experience experimenting with Cray-Pas oil pastels on Clairefontaine pastel paper. From sketching out my composition to exploring vibrant colors and textures, I'll take you through the process step by step in this draw with me video.
Along the way, I'll discuss the challenges and surprises I encountered; exploring the unique tactile experience of working with oil pastels and the struggle to resist diving into intricate details. Additionally, I'll touch on the broader theme of stepping out of my comfort zone as an artist and the importance of embracing creative exploration and trying new mediums. Despite the learning curve, I'm pretty happy with the results and excited to continue pushing my artistic boundaries with oil pastels. Thank you for watching and happy creating!
