I’ve been doing studies in the Robert Bateman brand sketchbooks, which are a pretty smooth vellum surface; the oil pastel slides around wildly on them but gosh it’s fun! This drawing is maybe 7 x 7″ or so in size. Reffed my own photo.

Again I did an underdrawing with the cray-pas expressionist oil pastels – they hold a decent point and are very easy to layer over with softer brands like mungyo, haiya, or god help me sennellier.
