HELLO THERE and welcome to Class!!

So delighted you could join me. :)

I have a few words to say:

EXPRESSIVE OIL PASTEL PORTRAIT CLASS

FINISHED PIECE. I WANTED A SPANISH VIBE!

PHOTO REFERENCE:

MATERIALS LIST

  • Toned mixed media paper. I use Canson Graduate in a grey tone.

  • Small squeege or catalyst wedge. You can get them in art stores or on Amazon. I use a silicone bowl scraper
    in this demo :) You can see it here https://www.messermeister.com/products/silicone-bowl-scraper-sbs-web

  • Soft Willow Charcoal

  • Oil pastels. My favourite are Sennelier but you can use others, just make sure they are soft not hard. Watch video for the types of colours I use. I use lots of muted tones and some bright colours.

  • Sennelier oil pastel fixative is great to lightly seal the pastels
