Well you can probably tell that it's not still life I've been drawing from my garden today! These were copied from a calender I got last year, with some pretty awesome photography of monkeys. I've been wanting to do this awhile and I had the free time to sit in the actual sun today and do it which was nice. Yay heat wave! I have to side with the line drawing as I just like it, it reminds me of a few people! On the right is my first attempt at using oil pastels, and like I've already mentioned it's been hot today, so it probably wasn't the best time to try them out and actually have a go at using them. i will admit the nostrils are a bit werid as for some reason I haven't got a black crayon. It's not perfect but I guess it is a start of using something I'm not used to at all. I'm sure people would have laughed at me drawing today, as my old still life lecturer says became scared to make a mark of the page for around half an hour. It slowed me down :D But hey that's what trying something new is all about!
