Porcupine - Oil Pastel by Larissa (grade 5)

Larissa took several sessions to to complete this delightful little composition, and I think her efforts certainly paid off.  Notice her careful attention to detail --- not only does she give us a careful rendering of the porcupine,  but also the surrounding shrubbery and the log.  Her use of a strong background colour is also effective, making her drawing "pop out" and giving definition to the negative shapes around and between the forms.
