Oil Pastel Bright Florals on Blue & VIDEO

Artecho oil pastels has some very lovely colors in their range! I used this cheery palette for these florals (VIDEO at the bottom of the post). The light blue background sets off the corals especially well. I am working on my Strathmore toned tan paper and taped the sides with washi. The creamy look is my favorite, but oil pastels provide amazing texture. You can blend the tips of the flowers and greenery right into the background. 🙂
