Description Story of this piece:
I was aiming to draw a dramatic scene of clouds and a majestic white dragon on the cheap canvas I bought. And of course, it was my first time drawing on canvas. Since I had no paint, I used oil pastels. Funny thing, idk how to draw clouds, more or less color it. I tried multiple colors and it was doing a bit fine but then I added yellow to the blue. You know what happened?! IT TURNED GREEN! (of course it did-simple color logic) So now the clouds looked like grass or something that was green. Yep, I'm this stupid. At first I tried fixing it with by adding more blue, in the end, it just got worse. When it got worse, I just added random colors to the canvas, I didn't know what I was doing, I added tons of blues, greens and purples everywhere with a bit of yellow. And that image popped out when I started outlining it with a charcoal pencil.

Mistakes can lead to something surprisingly beautiful! The colors look awesome.

Thanks! 
Also, I see mistakes as mistakes, more like a new way of doing something totally different
