Two Step Romance - original oil pastel figurative painting


This oil pastel was done on paper from a Sennelier oil pastel pad - the kind with the sort of translucent inserts between the drawings or paintings so they don't smear.  I love this paper and usually use it with the bits of white paper showing, but this time, I applied Golden neutral grey acrylic to the paper before painting.  I probably won't do it again, though, because the beauty of this paper is that it's ready for the oil pastel and doesn't need anything at all to enhance it.  Thank you for stopping by - I love having you visit my blog!
