Yes, I made up this bird. :) I wanted something "tropical", which really just means I wanted to use a lot of bright colors and a crazy feather hair-do. :) I'm using my Strathmore journal with toned tan paper and oil pastels (both Paul Rubens and Mungyo Gallery). ... View the Post
Oil Pastel & Watercolor Goomba & Video
Here is something a little more light-hearted. Surprise, I didn't paint flowers! :) I thought I would try a Goomba, since I'm working through Super Mario Odyssey.

I've used black drawing paper in my art journal with a combination of oil and soft pastels. These quick paintings are fun exercises, and I use them in my digital art.
