Description This is just a quick 10-15 minute sketch with black and white oil pastels that I thought looked alright. Decided to stick it on my school folder as my old one tragically drowned in the rain.
Holidays are coming so more and hopefully better art will be done.

I'm not waiting for fate and time to decide my life or my time
I'm not waiting
There's no way
Out from inside to grow now in time
This life awake
I hear that truth can set you free
Only a truth can set you free from a lie
All I feel while emotions collide here
I'm stuck in an ocean grown wide
Swim for one more day
Here, I can swim for one more day...

Yeah I have a lot of fun doing them - there's a certain degree of spontaneity that I like.

Thanks. Yeah I know- they look a bit too rigid and her hand looks more like a paw than a hand with five digits. I find it hard to get details right with oil pastels.

that's where you use some other medium that looks like oil pastel do any exist?

Perhaps. But not one that is nearly as fun nor as messy, without which it is not nearly as enjoyable. Maybe with more practice, it'll be better. I might even endeavour to do colour!!
