Black Phillip in Oil Pastels

Hello All,

This time I did an oil pastel painting. I’m not super knowledgeable about oil pastels and how to use them, but I’ve been getting good feedback on this one so I’ve decided to post it. I was feeling so stressed yesterday but as soon as I started drawing and working on this I immediately felt better and more relaxed.

This is a painting based on the character of Black Phillip from the horror movie the VVitch. He’s secretly the devil in disguise. The goat they used for the movie is incredibly beautiful so I wanted to do an art piece based on him.

I was actually at the Torpedo Factory in Alexandria this past weekend, which is actually an old torpedo factory converted into an amazing art galley/shops. I saw someone had done a beautiful watercolor of Black Phillip with the quote from the movie and I thought that perhaps I could make one for myself.

I do realize that I misspelled deliciously and have since corrected it, but I loved this photo I took so much that I’m posting it with the mistake.

Overall I’m happy with the piece and maybe I will decide to do something with the background and re-do the quote. Thanks for reading everyone and I’ll be back soon!
