Ha! Not bad for some Dollar General oil pastels. I haven't worked with pastels since grammar school, so this was fun to play around with. It looked good until I ruined it trying to get a foreground. I'll try grapes again some other time. I did work on 2 other paintings in the studio, turkey feathers and a pet portrait. Turkey feathers below. I vowed to never paint a turkey again, but of course one of my closest friends asked for this. I couldn't say no. One day I'll learn.
