I failed spectacularly on the first attempt and had to take a break. On second attempt, I decide to scale up the entire painting and take shortcuts on details.

About:
In this video, I show the entire process of painting a portrait of a young woman in oil pastel from start to finish.

Notes
I wear gloves for the ease of switching between painting and handling camera equipments.
