Oil pastels are tricky - I think you have done a lovely job. I particularly like the teaspoon.

Was inspired to paint this as I was gifted some echinacea tea, to chase away winter colds. Used oil pastels on pastel mat and experimented with a drop of oil to blend colours. Worked ok on this paper but tried oil pastels soluble, with a drop of water and the effect was dull. A bit rough but need as much practice as possible with this medium.
