My father passed away unexpectedly in May and was survived by both his parents. I’m making art to help myself grieve and hopefully help my family remember the good times we all have had together with him. I will be sending this to my grandmother as it was one of her favorite recent pictures together.

Dumoine River in Quebec.

I decided on a whim to try to use an impasto style for the whitewater and I am still undecided as to whether I like the result. I haven’t practiced that technique much and was surprised at how much more time consuming it is and I had difficulty controlling it. Any impasto suggestions or suggestions for how to approach capturing the turbulence of whitewater?

Been working with oil pastel now for a couple months and starting to get the hang of it. Still struggling heavily with clouds, especially dark clouds versus white puffy clouds. Any advice for creating clouds and getting more delicate wispy shapes versus chunky blocks would be greatly appreciated!

1. I used just Pentel oil pastels. 2. I used two brands of paint, Pentel + Sakura (cray-pas). I mixed the two brands and got a nice texture.

we just harvested some grapes for wine, picked the ripe figs and made some preserves. used staedler oil pastels on beige(?) paper. i’m colorblind so it looks a bit muddy to me, i don’t know how to fix it. I gave up with the jam on the bread. I am so jealous of some of your guys’ work, I guess I just need to practice more. when I follow tutorials it looks good, but when I have to do things on my own, it’s harder.
