Oil pastel lesson 1 is all about colours and blending....in contrast this lesson combines the technique as well, each student has to choose different colours for each layer and I made them test a small section prior going in with the final picture. This lesson is about scratching out patterns and marks over the layers of Oil pastels, so I drew a picture of Chameleon among the foliage and we studied the skin patterns and colours from many pictures.
Given the choice, some students chose to make the Chameleon blend in with the background, specifying it's unique feature and some chose it to stand out from the background. It was a hardwork but definitely very therapeutic to scratch out the patterns, the kids got surprised at the final outcome since they didn't expect the colour combinations to end up so well!!
Some close-ups.......depending on the choice of colours, the results will be amazing. Here are some complementary colour pairs,

And Analogous colour combos,
And some of our colour and technique explorartions in other drawings,
One of my student's creativity....I like the DNA-like pattern !!
