I forgot how much I love oil pastels. Getting back into different art mediums after so many years of burn out has been amazing. I don’t want to sound cheesy but I feel blessed in some ways to have the chance to work great companies like Meeden. #oilpastels #meedenart #dragons #fantasyartist #pastels
