Persimmons In Oil Pastels, Start The First Day Of May With Art!

The story behind this drawing is that when I was still on my highschool or college era, I used to watch kdrama, the influence in food is number one for me, I remembered I used to be curious about “Kimchi” and I love to taste it because on how delicious they ate it so I decided to make one and at first I was hesitate but when I know what to do with it, I can’t stop making it. When sangyupsal was still starting here in the Philippines, I always asked my family to eat one for experience, and I am telling you right now, sangyupsal is better before than now.
And back to the topic the one k drama I used to watch ate persimmons it look good so me and my cousin try to find one on the market and we saw one and I didn’t like it at all it taste like chico like we have here and lately my mom bought some and I tasted it, it taste different from what we bought on the market, the reason is that the persimmon is overripe so that is why LOL.
So yeah, I decided to draw a persimmon in oil pastel today, and to start the first day of the month of May! Oh, by the way, it is Labor Day today.
Materials I Used:
- Paper
- Oil Pastel
- Tissue
- Scratching Tool
Time To Draw!
I promise myself to be productive starting today. To draw the line art, I use pretty much any color my hand touches. It is fine.
Start by layering the base color on each part of the persimmon. I do it lightly in the moment.
Then I layer it with more of its base color I start to add the shadows to the part that is darker.
Sometimes when I am so focused on one part, I always forget the other part, so that is my focus on this part.
I was doubting whether I would use green as a background color, but I still did.
I like the blend, some of it with white.
Then this one too.
I never forget the accent colors. I finally decided green is the background color, so commit to it.
This one is my favorite part of the process, adding texture using a scratching tool.
Here is the close-up look. I love the texture that oil pastel makes.
I hope you like it :D
