Oil pastel Demonstration

This is an example of a finished oil pastel. The colors are richer and brighter than the dry pastel. I did not use my usual acrylic matt medium on this work of art. I found the really soft Senelier pastels to lift right off of my BFK Rives printmaking paper. Every time I use this paper it always reaffirms why I love this paper so much. The pastel is ready for a matt and a frame.
