It can be clearly seen the colours of the sky were not exactly replicated. When I initially did the sky, maybe due to a lack in my crayon skills, or the oil pastels themselves,or just my choice of colours,  the sky did not look as vibrant as I hoped it would. I started adding purple, pink, green, orange, and pretty much every other sky related colour to see which combination would give the vibrancy that i was expecting, but somehow, instead of just an ugly explosion of colours, it turned into a nice dusky evening sky.

 

The main issue I had was making sure the leaves of the shrubbery do not look all the same and orderly. I did not expect randomising the leaves to be as hard as it was. Another issue was outlining the buildings in the background. I couldnt find a brush small enough, so in the end I used the Xecto knife to get the thin straight lines.whatsapp-image-2016-11-10-at-18-06-45-1
