Oil Pastel

This project was focusing on mixing colors. I started this project by picking a picture, printing it then gridding it in centimeters. I then did the same grid on a piece of paper and began the project.

I mixed different colored oil pastels to get the closest color to the one on the picture. I went row by row matching and mixing. Since the picture was mostly sky I had to do lots of shades of blue so once it got to the flag and it had the colors mixing it made it purple and the white and red from the flag made it pink.

Over all I enjoyed making this project because I am not very good at realism. So I like this because I feel like it makes the project more unique to me because it is focusing on the colors that I see and not everyone would see the same colors.
