Oil pastels are a lot easier to use than pencil because its quicker and it looks nicer. I think my last shape turned out the best because I had the most practice before that.
3. How successful do you feel this piece is and why?
I think this piece wasn't very successful because it was a practice piece and it was my first time trying forms & shading with oil pastels.
4. What worked about this project? What didn’t work?
Overall, the forms worked pretty well, but the shadows of the shapes didn't work. In some of the forms, the blending didn't work that well, but in other shapes it did.
5. If you were to do this project over again, what changes would you consider making?
I would use different color combinations so that the transitions between the colors wasn't so harsh.
6. What was the most difficult part about completing this piece and why?
I think the most difficult part about this piece was blending the oil pastels so the transition between the colors was smooth. This was difficult because some of the colors were a lot darker or lighter than the others and that makes it harder to blend the colors.
7. What did you learn from this piece?
I learned how to use oil pastels to give a simple shape a 3D effect. I also learned that you need to use a lighter pressure when blending oil pastels.
