Life is a Box of Pastels


Today, I came across an image from a few months ago that I never posted. It's a commissioned piece made from cut pieces of paper that are colored with oil pastels and sandwiched between two panes of glass (using a store-bought float frame).


That piece inspired today's quickie doodle, where I simply scribbled some lines with oil pastels and then brushed the paper with turpentine to blur the edges and to smooth out the colors. The result looks vaguely like a Morris Louis painting to me.
