[Traditional Art ] Mushrooms and a Butterfly

I saw this video a while ago where a woman was using baby oil to blend colored pencils....so I tried it out. This took me about 6 or 7 hours, I'm not used to working so much in just one media for a single drawing so this was very hard for me. There is a small amount of white paint (the whitedots) and some highlights on the rock and other mushroom but you can't really see it on the mushroom I used different brands and they all seemed to blend with baby oil so I think that's a good sign.


Enjoy!
