Description
This is an oil pastel painting enhanced with Prismacolor oil pencils. To blend the color evenly, I mask the areas around selected color-fields with Friskfilm, cutting along the graphite sketch lines on the museum board with an X-Acto blade, lay in broad strokes of oil pastel, 'paint' the pigment into the board with a rag dampened with a little mineral spirits, then I layer more color on top of the pastel-painted areas - sometimes using my fingertips to push it around and blend it in - and to finish I use Prismacolor oil pencils to draw the details that define the finished piece.
