- A Break from the Norm -
As promised, I’m also posting some of the other art projects I’ve taken up recently. My girlfriend does a lot of oil pastels and one day she asked if I’d be interested in doing some with her.

I am happy with how these turned out, though I don’t think they’re necessarily finished art pieces. The last three were oil pastel over copper-colored acrylic, hence the shine in the backgrounds (I’m hoping my girlfriend will post some of her pieces from that series, I’ll keep you posted).
However, I did play around with a photograph of the last one and came up with a couple pieces that I am really happy with:
