Comprised of watercolor, pen, mixed media gel pens, acrylic, my new oil pastels, and strips of another painting, “Summer in the City” is 9″ x 12″ on watercolor paper. Started and finished in the same sitting, that is unusual for me!
Even though the colors are cool, there is still something hot and sultry about this abstract city scene.
I love my mixed media gel pens, I use them all the time and they are almost done. After lots of research on Amazon, instead of re-buying, I opted for these slightly less expensive oil pastels.
I am not impressed. The colors look really bright and festive, in the box, but I can’t seem to get the vivid hues on paper. Or canvas. No matter what I try. If you have used these and had a different experience, I’d love to hear your tips!
