Desert Challengers

Here is the beginnings of my next oil pastel. The initial linear is transferred to frisket film by burnishing the film over the linear. No pencil actually touches the pastel paper. Then the frisket is transferred to the paper and is cut out right there, being careful not to cut through to the surface, before I begin applying the pastel to paper.

Mustang Country (completed)

Ford designer John Najjar, who was a fan of the P-51 Mustang fighter plane, is credited with using the name for his creation. It is now in it's sixth generation and remains one of the most popular muscle cars. Here is the final piece, oil pastel on Canson Mi-Teintes pastel paper. Size is 24.5" x 12.25

Further progress on the oil pastel. The main Stang is just about complete, just need to soften a few edges.

Some more progress on the Stangs. The pics show the amount of masking and cutting required.
