Description
Love the colours on this one, they were really fun to do!The reference picture I've used is popular on DA, but I really wanted to have a go with the amazing lighting on the photo! And as you can see, I've used some stylization/simplification to increase the psychadelic quality. Hope you like it!
Blue, red, yellow, pink, white and black oil paints on canvas board, about 5 hours.

Thank you! You should definitely try out oils, they're my favourite medium by far, so flexible and vibrant.

are they hard to work with? i heard its difficult because they do not dry...

If you get the hang of the technique, they are easier to work with by not drying, as it means you can mix and adjust them on the canvas, after application. Easier to fix mistakes and blend colours that way!
