I never knew that it was possible to create pictures using oil pastels on felt until I joined 2Q Artists Philippines. I could still remember how nervous I was when I first tried it, especially in the presence of the founders and my mentors Jeffrey Consumo, Abelardo Lovendino, and Romeo Montes.
I tried to recreate the first artwork I made using oil pastels on felt (I used Velour pastel paper, which is archival felt paper in a nutshell).
I never would have learned how to do this without their guidance.
To my dear mentors, thank you very much!
