Here I was influenced by the classical statues of ancient Greece and Rome. I decided to emphasize the imperfections of the statue by ripping the paper where part of the statue had been broken off.

The face is a tad distorted but I’m happy with the result. I’ve previously had difficulty with different brands of oil pastels not blending well because some were softer than others so to counteract this I heated whatever i was using with my hairdryer.
