Art Projects

Lately I have had fun playing and experimenting with acrylic and watercolor paint and oil pastels. Water color is difficult because of how it bleeds. And acrylic I had difficulty keeping straight lines and having the images look how I envisioned them. The best way I was able to accomplish the images I wanted was to sketch them out or trace out the images.

Van Gogh makes it look easy I attempted to see how difficult it was for him to make. I had a hard time with oil pastels let alone paint! and their is a native american inspired oil pastel
