@theTRUE1414- Your grammar looks like a little kid wrote it.

I wouldnt know but towards the end made me laugh. I saw it as if she was thinking... "Damn i shouldnt have __________. PLAN B!"  *pulls out other piece* "here's an example..."

@dideletpink use a fixative.

[bocajblack]

@dideletpink maybe spray some hairspray over them or find some kind of fixative if that is what it is called

thank you for the lesson, i love oil pastels. i just have one question: how do you dry it? I want to frame my paintings but i'm always afraid someone may smudge them!

I understand what you're getting at but c'mon, be a little more patient with your work.

Très interessant. Finalement c'est très proche de la peinture à l'huile mais plus maniable pour débuter.
