———-
Advanced Art will have the option of using mar oil pastels on 1-2 drippings (larger spaces between line).
A.A. will need to add depth and value to the overlapping ares with darker colors underneath.
A.A. will color blend analogous colors in each drip space and use shading on the overlapping areas of the black and white.
