Oil Pastel River Landscape Painting

A peaceful river is the subject of this oil pastel landscape. I mostly used Artecho and Paul Rubens Haiya, as they were on my desk. I tried to keep it to a few simple colors. Sometimes, that is less overwhelming than staring at sets of 120 colors. 🙂 I believe that I used Canson Graduate cream paper here, but I can’t remember for sure. You could definitely use my favorite toned paper!
