Oil Pastel Faces

I joined a portrait group on Facebook so I'd be motivated to create more faces. I'm also making gelatin  prints so I wanted to combine the two.

Here are two I just made last night and today.


They are oil pastel and graphite over a gelatin print. Then the pastel is pushed around with q-tips covered in mineral oil (or baby oil). I really like the way they are coming out.

For some reason Blogger is re-sizing my photos incorrectly. But if I put them on Pinterest they come out the right size.
