Still Here Still Life 122 Oil Pastel

---

Hello, how are you? Another week of Still Here Still Life. I heard that they're going on break for the whole month. They deserve that break, it's sad, but also happy at the same time. I was able to use my oil pastels again, and I'm still weeks behind, so I can still complete their challenge before they return.

---

Materials I Used:

---

The Process:

I sketch the reference, don't worry about the pencil sketch, it will be covered up when I start to layer it with oil pastel.

---

I started to outline the sketch with dark green oil pastel. When using oil pastel, they said that starting with a dark color is a must do just like oil paints.

---

Then I used this brown oil pastel to outline the color of the coffee or tea in the mug.

---

Using this yellow oil pastel, I outline the plate using it, it is okay if it is not a perfectly shaped circle, just go with the flow.

---

After that, I use this old rose oil pastel to outline the coaster of the boiled egg.

---

Using this yellow ochre oil pastel, I outlined the bread and the egg.

---

For the final line art, I used this red oil pastel to outline the coaster of the other boiled egg.

---

This time I am starting to layer and fill the outline of the oil pastel I drew way back, by the way, I use this gray-green oil pastel to do the layering.

---

Then I use this pale yellow to layer the color of the content inside the mug.

---

After that, I am starting to layer the plate with yellow shades, just trust the process.

---

After that, I started layering each outline with different shades.

---

For the final process, I'm adding shadows to the drawing and then more intense shades just to make it look more like a drawing, and finishing it with a layer of white oil pastel to add highlights to the drawing.
