Painting

Oil Pastel Branch & Berries Painting with VIDEO

Some days, I jut want to paint something simple. These botanical motifs are great for using later in designing surface patterns. I used mostly Artecho oil pastels and a charcoal pencil. Strathmore’s toned tan paper journals are perfect for your oil pastel paintings and doodles.

Experimenting with your art supplies should be a thing. They are meant to be used! 🙂 Art journals are great places to try an idea or color palette.
