I enjoyed using differnt mediums for these mini projects. Although I only liked doing the colored pencils it was still fun to try something new. I found the jolly rancher with oil pastels the most difficult project because it was hard to blend the oils to turn out the right color I wanted. It was difficult achieving the look that the jolly rancher was somewhat translucent. I loved drawing the dum dum most of all. It was easy to get into the tight edges with the colored pencils. And the prisma colors made it easy to achieve the perfect amount of blending. The thing I found most frustrating about the chalk pastels was trying to get into the edges with the chalk. It was somewhat easy to blend the chalks but difficult to get the right amount of pressure so you didn't over power the picture. If I had to pick a favorite, it would most definitely be colored pencils.
