Description
This is a picture I did a while ago of my mom with oil pastels. It's based on a photograph.PS
Haha if you happen to notice the camera date, I did not make this in '99. I just never bothered to fix the date on my camera.
I actually made this in January '10.

Thank you so much! This was definitely an emotional piece for me... I really wanted to represent both the subject and the atmosphere as best as I could.

This is lovely. The colors and textures (haha, I feel like I'm saying what's already been said) are wonderful. Truly! It looks very sincere.

Holy moly pudding and pie.
This is such a beautiful piece, but you already know how I feel about it. The lighting and texture is amazing.
You should really use a fixing spray on this and scan it, it's gallery/portfolio-worthy.

Ooh I know! I tried to find some, but they only had spray for acrylic paint, and I wasn't sure if it was multi-purpose...

Bwa! Thank you! though I'm sure that's not true... you're so versatile!
I'm terrible at paint, it frustrates the fuck out of me, so oil pastels ended up being a fantastic alternative C:
No wet painty mess, and running out of white is no longer an issue... it's perfect for me haha
