The TG Jones/WH Smith branch in Windermere is closing down and has some good bargains on art materials. I treated myself to a box of oil pastels, which I’ve been itching to try for a while, and messed around seeing what I could do with them.
They’re a lot more like wax crayons than I realised, but I’m determined to keep going and see what happens.
The umbrellas are from a photo I took of an artwork in the Westmorland Shopping Centre in Kendal a few years ago. If I finish it, I might call it “Leaky Roof”!
