    Thanks Sharon ~ I find oil pastels very difficult, but they seemed to suit this subject.

    Thanks Carolyn…they are kinda hard to make ‘em do what you want, aren’t they? But then they have unexpectedly useful traits too, like looking stormy!

    This is a great picture! I love the water in the foreground, the mountain (volcano?) in the background and the sky. I know oil pastels are very hard to master, you did a wonderful job! Much admiration from me.
    PS: LOVELY new photo on your profile, you glamorous thing!

    Hi Elenne, this one was done in two stages, first with the oil pastel and then later I pushed it around a bit with some linseed oil. A couple of hours all up. Glad you like it…love Estelle.
