Happy Saturday, artists 💛 Recently I've tried oil pastels and now I enjoy to drawing little figures. At first I was afraid of them being similar to crayons, which I don't like, but these are different somehow. First, they're soft, it's like drawing with cream 🍦 🤣 and that texture is interesting and that allows to try different techniques. Second, the blending isn't perfect, but they blend. Overlapping colors are also a way for blending and you need to try them a lot for finding the method that suits you. Finally, I got black paper yesterday! So today I'm into creativeness 🌈 I hope my review and the sketch below make you curious and try them. These I own are cheap and I think I'll buy some pro oil pastel in the future.

Ohhh I love pastels! But I hate how messy it is on the hands so I tend to avoid them 😅 this one is pretty though. Is it a mini drawing?
Oh, no, Hanzell. You're talking about soft pastels (something like chalk) and I used oil pastels which are similar to crayons but extra oily. And yes, it is 7cm x 10 cm. Just a sketch 💛
Ahh then I have soft pastels 😅 but feels like they're both dirty on the hands anywaysss 😅😅😅 I still prefer crayons somehow
Oh, no. Oil pastels are not messy. They're like a high quality crayons.
But the way I blend is the messy part 😅😅😅 that's why I don't like
