Oil Pastels and Gelatos


 Finally I made something with oil pastels and gelatos that might look like art. I never quite got the hang of using oil pastels, but as in the words of the Space Commander from Galaxy Quest "Never give up, Never surrender!" For those of you who don't know, I am a self taught artist. I haven't taken any classes, not even online. Although I sometimes think about it, but I am enjoying teaching myself. I purchased the oil pastels 2 years ago and gave up, but pulled them out when I recently brought this gelatos kit from Michael's.

Sketchbook Friday and EDM: Scissors

I decided to draw in my moleskine I purchased a year ago, but put  away because I was dissatisfied with the quality of paper. I thought if I would buy the heavyweight paper that it could stand up to the copic markers, but it does not, I get bleed thru. I purchased some gelatos, no bleed through, but I still want to use my copic markers too.
  I drew my desk scissors, I keep my good scissors hidden away so that only I can use them. My children see these on my desk and grab them, instead of looking in the drawers.
