I was tempted to try oil pastels for a long time, and I finally I did it. I’m still in love with watercolour, but it’s nice to try and learn something new.

Working with oil pastels feel like to reconnectiong with my inner child – I have to explore, experiment, and figure out how to use them.

It’s not easy; my fingers get dirty, I smudge the colours, and I leave unwanted marks on the paper.

I feel like a clumsy child trying something new. It’s frustrated, but I’ve learnt a lot during the process. At the very least, I’ve opened myself up to new experiences and embraced learning something new.
