Playing with new medium
Lately I have been playing with a lot of different mediums. Trying to get out of my comfort zone of my Acrylics. I have been playing with Pastel Pencils, Oil Pastels, Watercolor and Watercolor pencils and Markers. I am really loving it. Colors are just so yummy!
Watercolors and Watercolor Pencils and I think I added a little bit of pastels
This one was all Markers
This one was all Oil Pastels. They were a box that my Mother gave when I was 12. And they are still good. I love them.
This one was pastel pencils with a little help with a blending stick
So I hope this inspires you to go out and try some new mediums. Live a little!!! You might just find something that you really love!!!
Enjoy yourselves!!!! See you soon!!
Your portraits are super beautiful 💕
Happy PPF 😃

Thank you Marie!!
These are absolutely wonderful! I’m trying to do the opposite and get out of my comfort zone of watercolors and try to learn how to use acrylics!! Happy PPF!
Lol! Everyone should try to do what is uncomfortable. I guess it is the way we will learn. Sometimes it is just so darn easy to go back to what we know!!
ALL Drop dead GORGEOUS!!!!! wow!!!!!
Thank you Sandee!!!
These are wonderful, I am dropping my pastels paint and pencils for a bit of experimenting with digital! As you say it is fun.
Do it Sharon it is so fun sometimes to just experiment!! Have fun!!! I have not tried that yet but I will one of these days!
Beautiful and appealing faces – so well done and I love that you still had those oil pastels from your Mother. Cheers, Sue :D)
Thank you Sue!!! Yes I remember getting them for a christmas present and remembering I did not like them at the time….What??? I know! Now I love them, It is funny how our mood changes as we get older.
Beautiful artwork in all the mediums you have used. I just experimented with watercolors and it was fun! Nice to have a change. Great post and inspiration. Thank you. Have a wonderful week. Hugz, Rasz
Thank you so much Rasz!!! Yes it is always good to change it up!!! You have a wonderful week as well!!!
Such beautiful work Heather! I have started playing with alcohol markers lately, after having them for a while and never knowing how to use them or what to do with them. And it’s so much fun! You’re right, one needs to step out of his/her comfortzone every now and then and go on an adventure 🙂
Thank you so much!!! I say just do it!!! Your right it is so easy to stay in our comfort zone!!
Wow looks like this is a comfort zone for you too. These are beautiful.
Thank you so much Nicole!!! xoxo
