Still life

This still life I did using my oil pastels. This was my first time using oil pastels, and I can honestly say I’m not a fan. Overall, it was fun to do, the mannequin leg wrapped in Christmas lights give the piece a really creepy feel. It’s one of my favorite ones this year.

Squidward Monoprint

This actually took me a couple attempts to do. It started off as a joke, because I watch Sponge Bob and have lots of SpongeBob doodles in my sketch book. I copied one of my doodles to the tray using these printable crayons. The actual printing process was difficult because every time you re-print, you have to redraw your image. I’m very proud of this, even though it all started  as a joke.
