Avalanche Coffee Mug - Oil Pastel

Went to the store today and picked up some cheap oil pastels. Never used them before but I describe it as a perfect mix of crayola crayons and chalk pastels. A far more forgiving medium than I thought, and intially I was not happy with them. 

Yet as I started to get a feel for how they worked, they really grew on me.

My Love List thus far:

1. Pencil

          2. Chalk Pastel

                              3. Standard Sidewalk Chalk

     4. Oil Pastel

        5. Watercolor

                                                             6. Acrylic (Mainly because I've never used them)

Anyway here is my first oil piece.
