I think in my final I will edit the background a bit to be more intentional in terms of how it relates to my theme.

The "star" looking things in the background are very reminiscent of Vincent Van Gogh which was mostly because I enjoy his use of texture and color. However, in my final I would like to make this .. homage less obvious while still maintaining the texture.

I experimented first by laying down some swatches in order to get a feel of each color and each pastel's texture. Then I did some small drawings to test how they felt in terms of texture, how it felt to layer, what techniques I could possibly take to my final, etc. I also tried layering the pastel very heavily then scraping it which moved the pigment in a way that made it kind of messy and cool.
