This is a very inaccurate imitation of Van Gogh's painting of the same name.
I saw soft pastels in the store the other day and I wanted to give them a try immediately. So got the box of pastels home and did this. I have worked with oil pastels before and thought working with soft pastels would not be new, but I was completely wrong! I have never had a harder time with a set of colours that produces dust like when writing with chalk, and such unstable colours that keep smudging that I found it difficult to keep my work clean.
(Enthusiasts, there are more paintings in this series of his and you should atleast google them out and view it! They are absolutely wonderful)
Van Gogh's olive trees is on my agenda for the near future.
