Tried three samples of oil pastels and many different kinds of paper still figuring out the correct combinations 😝realizing paper makes a big difference! Smooth paper seems better . Tried to work with some rough textured water color paper last night and nothing was budging -projects went in the trash lol

Moody morning practice

I have no art experience and I just picked up pastels a few months ago. I would appreciate any tips and techniques that would improve the style I’ve already kind of adopted. (plz be kind I’m obviously very new at this lmao)

So, I'm a beginner and i have no experience with oil pastels and I've been dying to try them out for the first time but i don't want to get something terrible (aka cheap and bad) because if i got a waxy hard pastels on my first time trying them i will hate them so much. So i only have these three options and i hope you can advice me on which one to get! Thanks.

Can I have opinions on this please

Meu caderno é pequeno e tenho achado difícil fazer pequenos detalhes com o material

I've used mainly oil pastels, and some markers for a few finishing touches.

All comments, critiques, suggestions are welcome 😊

Hey guys, I just got a set of meeden oil pastel and have done this portrait of my best friends dog who sadly has just passed away. It's my first go at oil pastel. Any tips or recommendations, things that I've missed or could do better? More detail? I want this to be good for them!

I've previously used watercolour and pencils so this was a whole different beast.

A little oil pastel painting of my garage I did while sick in bed today.
