Project 2 Sampling - Sgraffto Oil Pastels, Apples.

Using the Sgraffito Technique I created the below piece with oil pastels, I cut up a credit card and used that to scrape the oil pastels. Out of the materials I have used experimenting with Sgraffito I think I prefer Oil Pastels as they are a lot less mucky then using ink and the Acrylic paint. I also liked that I could leave it and come back to it later where with the other materials you had a time limited as it would dry out and become unscratchable.
