Oil Pastel House by the Sea Painting

Painting can bring such great mental release. I think there can be healing in art, especially as it reflects God’s creation. I love the sea, and this landscape in oil pastel is calming to me. I layed the foundation in colored pencils, partly to save layering ability for later. Colored pencils also helps to “sketch out” the shapes and colors, making it easier to bring in the chunkier pastels. There is a short video below and a few step-by-step photos!
