Nightmares (edited)

Pin Up French Maid

KinKei made an awesome Pin Up Maker (flash) so I decided to try it out and viola! this is the result of 15 minutes on the thing.. :) It was so fun messing around with designs. :)
This would be the "French Maid Pin Up"

 

(I did not make the application, I just mixed up the parts and designs) 

the love for water soluble pastels

 

This is an oil piece I've been working on. It was on regular acid free paper. The oils didn't react to well though  so I'm thinking of transferring the piece to canvas. 

The following pieces were made just out of practicing my color composition, how I choose colors using a limited palette. I used Caran de'Ache water soluble pastels which I love I don't know if they make them anymore though.
