So I had to go to Aberdeen for 5 nights for train the trainer training. My first thought was taking some minis and paints down, but after watching my case being loaded I am glad I didn’t. Instead I took my oil pastels and tried to do something every night… Since Monday night I have achieved my goal…

I decided to keep going on the same idea rather than trying something new each evening. The first was on off white/grey paper, After which I changed to black. I will keep practicing on this style as I like doing it. My blending is definitely improving, not there yet, but getting there.

The last one was this evening. I decided to try a different approach to the swirling ripple effect.

I will work on it more tomorrow..
