Work in Progress

Here is a looser approach of impressionism using oil pastels. Oil based pastels offer a more painterly effect and are much more difficult to use. They are not as giving and hard to erase, making them a bit more permanent once applied to the surface. The imagery is almost as if looking at a real oil painting. Oil pastels are different than the dry pastels due to oil base. Both kinds contain pure pigments, which is used to make oil paints.
