For this project, I was assigned a picture of a girl named Theavy from Cambodia to create a portrait of. We can either use oil pastels, pencil, or colored pencil to accomplish this. I am excited for this project because I want Theavy to have something special, but I am scared of not doing her beauty justice with my art skills.
To start this project, I experimented with different mediums to see what works best. I took one week for each and really enjoyed trying them all. The one I struggled with the most was the colored pencil because I had never used it before, but I am happy with how it turned out. I chose to do the oil pastel for my final project because it will be a good challenge for my skills.
