Pumpkin and Candles

Pumpkin and Candles, 10″ x 8″, oil pastel on paper

On my wife’s suggestion, I decided I needed to paint a pumpkin!

I purchased some professional grade oil pastels at the store yesterday, and I thought I would give them a go today.Wow! I am in love. The creamy consistency and rich color are fantastic. I could add plenty of layers before creating mud or bloom. I think I might do a few more of these.

This is painting 5 of 90 paintings in 90 days. (purchase info here)
