Hello! It's 2020, but I hope this helps, I used to blend with baby oil with my anime drawing back in highschool, around 2015 and after 5 years it's still the same. Nothing changed, no yellowings. I used cheap sketchbooks back then by the way :)
Great tip! Thanks for letting us know! :o)
wow! is it meant to replace turpentine?
@@eechen001 In my opinion yeah. I was broke back then so I tried baby oil and it works I didn't even knew you can use turpentine. This is safer I guess.
@@0SoulSanctuary0 turpentine probably dries faster? That’s probably the only difference one might see - which could certainly be an advantage for some people.
I guess Im asking the wrong place but does anyone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account..?
I was stupid forgot my login password. I love any assistance you can offer me
One thing that could prevent crumbs from smudging areas you want clean is masking fluid. Just paint the areas with it that you do not want any fallout on, let it dry, and start drawing with the oil pastels. Once you are finished with the piece, rub the masking fluid off the paper/canvas or use tweezers to remove it. You can also add a little bit of watercolor paint to the masking fluid in order to see where it has already been applied.
I've just started with oil pastels and frankly, losing the will to live with blending lol I shall give the baby oil a try! Thanks for sharing this video, it might just keep me alive! 🤣🤣🤣
Haha!! Good luck with the baby oil ;o)
I came here from your video about old pastels because I have pental 50pc pack, it's 5years old and pretty dry to blend. I used a very liquid coconut oil (I mean this bottle of mine never solidifies) and a softer brush since I didn't have baby oil and hard brush. The oil bled thru my 110gsm paper but it doesn't feel oily. I used colour pencils for some detailing. After following this tut I couldn't believe I made such a beautiful artwork from oil pastel, a medium that I really feared. Thank you so much
Thanks so much for sharing! I'm really glad the video was helpful :o)
Hello Syndia. Thank you for making this video. Today I just got my Faber-Castelle set of oil pastels and they would not blend and would only rub off of the paper. I had such a terrible time. My husband suggested many tips and one of them was that maybe they were dried out. Your video inspired me to try again and the results are 100× better with the baby oil. I would've given up on oil pastels if it weren't for you and my husband. Thank you.
Wonderful! I'm really glad it helped you :o) Have a good week ahead.
I'm having the same issue with that brand. I was wondering if I were rubbish or they were old. Probably a bit of both 🤣. That's what brought me here.
I'll try this.
The brand is otherwise a good one, but the oil pastels are rubbish imho.
I really want to do oil pastel arts specially nature it makes me relax and reduces my stress
Thank you for this video! It's inspired me to pick my oil pastels back up!
This makes me really happy! :o) Have a great week!
@@SyndiaArt Thank you! You too!
I am new to oil pastel and find using a blending stump works well without the problems I see here.
Syndia I love your Oil Pastel work please do more of them please thank-you Ian ...
Thanks Ian :o) these might explain the lack of OP drawings ►► ua-cam.com/video/scBG2URX_eM/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/puRuhZbhNic/v-deo.html
I now love oil pastels over most everything. I do water colour and pencil, and my set of pastels just sat there...until the day I opened their box. Yeah, she's excellent with them and agree with your request.
thats a very neat compartment for your oil pastels!!
I loved this tutorial, esp. the detail you went into about sketching (I'm learning and like how you broke it into steps that CAN be MESSY (and that's OK!) and how to use the pastels and different shades of colors used - and why -- TY!
I'm so glad you found it helpful! :o) Have a great week.
I have been doing similar tests and I am having some success protecting my white areas by hitting those spots with a white crayon, white oil pastel, or clear wax. Then any color which gets into the white zone can be washed away.
Oh god thank you very much you are using this oil pastel :") i am sooo annoyed because it didnt blended well. I was wondering to use oil but i dont know how to blend it.
I coping my depression and anxiety with drawing. And a lot of your videos help me practice and understand things.
God bless you 🥰🥰🥰❤❤
Sending you good thoughts :o)
Sending you good vibes Andjarin🌻
Thank you, I learned a lot. I feel less frustrated now that I know there are issues with oil pastels but also solutions.
Glad it was helpful!
Hello again,i'm still using oil pastels,and I still use baby oil for blending,still no problems matter of fact a few of my art canvases are completely dry,awesome video,is your little friend there still with you today?,dogs are a great companion.🤗❤️🌹
Yes, he's the best!
@@SyndiaArt awesome ❤🌹👍🥂
I can't wait to try the baby oil🥰🥰
Thanks for the information
I couldn’t find your crayon video…..but thanks for this one, it turned out really well!
would you say you prefer the baby oil for blending over gamsol?
Yes, very much so
Ouch! very spikey cactus very well mix the colours and shape beautiful painting very smart idea mix with oils
Thanks Romy! :o)
Very nice and inspiring video. May I paint with colour pencil/pastel pencil over the baby oil/ turpentine oil surface for finer details ?
How do you seal your artwork after you’ve completed it? What product do you recommend is the best? Also, you do beautiful work. Thanks for your video!
Hi Cody. I like the Sennelier Oil Pastel Fixative (It's a spray). Hope it helps.
Great tutorial, love watching you work. I have used baby oil before but, I don't have anything that I have done that is old enough for a test. I love how it all blended together so perfectly.
Yes it was very interesting to see how well it worked! I have a strong feeling that the colors would stay put for many many years. Oil pastels are very durable pigment wise (compared to watercolors for example). I don't think they're too finicky about blending mediums :o) I'll keep using it for sure.
Have you ever tried alcohol? Or a mineral spirit that dries slowly? Also, I think it would be good to prime the paper first before using a solvent so the oils in the pastel doesn't absorb into the paper to leave the pigment. Golden makes a special pastel gesso, but you probably already know that.
Waiting for my pastels to arrive in the mail this week. I already have Gamsol so I will use that AND ai have gesso so I will try that as well !!
I thought the pastel gesso was for CHALK pastels, to prep any surface to be able to use them.
I'm studying oil pastels,and this helps me a lot!!
I'm so glad it helped! :o)
This is exactly how I started to do Oil Pastels, but with regular paint thinner. I started to use Baby Oil with regular Oil Paints, too...but still need to experiment with it, as first painting is looking dull...so, I am also experimenting with Soybean Oil for same purpose. I am too poor to purchase those items specifically made for Oil Pastels and Paints.
I just bought 2 packs of 24 Oil Pastels today, along with a pad of 11"x14" Canvas Paper. Now all I need to do is get my baby Oil out of storage.
But does oil paint dry after using baby oil? 🤔 I'm a beginner and so far i keep reading that using any oil (olive, baby oil, coconut, etc) makes it worse to dry.
Thanks for your share and teaching.
Excellent! I'll try mineral oil again because I see now I had too much of it on my brush and it looked crummy. Your use of it, using much less, looks great!
Yes, with oil pastel you have to use the tiniest amount :o)
Yas to another vlog! 😀🙌
What a cute dog! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
He's my fave! :o)
I like the baby oil trick ! thank you.
You're welcome! :o)
I always enjoy your videos, its like we all sit with you there in the studio:):)
Thanks for that! I thought maybe people would find it a bit too long :o) Thanks for taking the time to write to me, it's much appreciated. Have a good rest of the week!
@@SyndiaArt The longer the better! :)
Just to answer your question...I did some oil pastel with baby oil on paper and canvas 20 years ago (I placed something sturdy under during the process with canvas no gesso on the canvas) and two of them were for my parents and they didn't change at all !
The cactus that you drew was really nice.
Thank yous so much! Have a nice weekend :o)
Your welcome. Have a nice weekend.
Beautiful 👍🏻
Why don’t the make oil pastels with a pointed tip like crayon so that it’s easier to get into small areas? I just ordered a set and when I got them the first thing I thought was that it would be kinda tough to get into small defined spaces. All I’ve ever used in my artwork are colored pencils, paint brushes, Neocolors, etc, all tools with pointed tips.
Your painting is so lovely
Thanks so much! Have a nice weekend :o)
Your voice is so calming..you almost made me sleep😂💕
😊 thank you
+1
Baby oil not only blended well it made the oak ting look like I vanished it. Thanking for your lessons .☺☺
My pleasure 😊
Teşekkürler 🥰🌺🙋♀️
well done...someone told me also to use oil pastel, i tried and it did blend well but i think i have used so much oil because the paper doesn't dry so well...i stopped painting and this pastel thing for a while(for being so busy), now i am fascinated to begin again..thank you
Yes, I've learned that it's best to use the littlest amount possible :o)
I love the tray you keep your oil pastels in; what is it?
It's one of those tool kit trays you get at the hardware store (I think they are usually used to keep nails, screws and bolts in) :o)
May i know which oil pastels you're usng
What did you use to clean the baby oil of your brush? Im jn the UK and never herd of what you mentioned.
I gathered a lot of information, thank you for that and your piece is real neat.❤️✨
Glad it was helpful! :o) Have a great weekend ahead!
Is that the cotton vellum mixed media sketchbook? Because I love it for graphite drawings so I wouldn't be surprised if it would work for pastels
I am a beginner and your videos are very helpful.:) Currently, I am trying to draw over oil pastel backgrounds with black graphite pencils. However, they are not giving me the matt look and finish, what I am looking for. is there any specific brand that I should try, or is there any technic which you can share with us by making a video. :)
Drawing over oil pastel doesn't work. You end up etching (carving out) the oil pastel pigment... it can be done if it's the look you are going for but it gives limited ''drawing options'' that's why I don't do it. Hope it helps :o)
0:30 Any one observe the picture in back.If u observe you r legend.
Which one?
Ohhh ddnt know u can use baby oil together with pastels it looks coool. Trying this tomorrow
It really helps blending :o)
Excuse me but how do i blend faber castell oil pastels i have been struggling when i try to blend them they just look like colors on top of colors they dont look like they formed a new color
Thank you for this video. I had fun with this project.
Glad you enjoyed it! :o)
I'm using the johnsons hair and scalp baby oil at moment I've tried both but the hair one is way better
Love your work.
Thank you so much Emily ♥♥♥ Have a great week
Same to you
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Pencil eraser is actually work to erase the oil pastel mess
Hi, I've been asking my self that I don't have baby oil but can I use oil instead?🥺✊
Hello, good morning, today I saw UA-cam which theme how to help pastel colors with johmsons baby olí or vaseline ... something to add?
Hi! Syndia.....Soo I have an art competition coming up and iam supposed to paint on a canvas with oil pastels....which r not as buttery as senelier...Soo I was wondering if this baby oil blending technique works on canvas as well??..... waiting for ur reply❤️❤️
I would suggest to prep your canvas with multiple layers of gesso to get rid of some of the texture. Canvas has too much texture for oil pastels. You can use baby oil but use only the smallest amount at a time or else your colors will become a slimy mess. Only use the baby oil in areas that are very necessary and just a little bit. Good luck.
@@SyndiaArt oh okayy omg thanks helped me s much im so thankful to u and i learn much frm ur videos toour amazings and thanks again...i will do all that :)
Great music :-)
I've been able to erase the majority of smudged crumbs with a nylon eraser
Allo Syndia, tu peux utiliser aussi du remover a vernis ou du purell j'ai vue ca dans un autre video. si tu veux tester :D Je suis de la rive nord. Je viens de découvrir ta chaine. Super t'es trucs
Heyy, I just wanna know if i use oil patelson paper 120g/m² is okay or not !? Btw I love your videos ❤️ hope you reply ❤️
Any paper will do but the thicker, the better :o) If you find the paper a little flimsy when you try to blend it's a sign you'd do better with a little thicker. But like I said, your paper should work fine. Hope it helps :o)
Wonderful.... thanks for sharing... ❤️
My pleasure 😊
Hello Question you think i can mix markers and oil pastel?
OP on top of markers, yes! (not the other way around though).
Could you give me the right link to the music please. The current one is not it
@Syndia Art what paper are you using. Would it be fine just to use sketch paper from a sketchbook.?
Yes, any paper is good but a mix media paper is the best cheap option as it is a little thicker than regular paper. Hope it helps :o)
I have ever tried it with Pentel but it doesn't work. I think I gotta try another way.
This video is pretty helpful
I'm really glad you found it helpful :o)
Have you tried liquid coconut oil?
Not yet!
I think any organic oil would oxidise over time and go yellow. Mineral and Gamsol oil is not going to do this.
How do you know that there is too much oil on the brush? For some reason, I can't get it right.
I basically take a drop on the corner of my brush as opposed to dipping the whole brush. When I feel that my brush starts to drag a little on the paper instead of gliding I dip it again just a little.
@@SyndiaArt Oh, thanks!
It's so good
I'm glad it helped! :o)
Try taping off where you don't want spots
Hi.. It was a great tutorial.. But let me tell u that oil pastel painting done with oil fades away with time
You've experienced colors fading?
Lovely
❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
🐶💝
I ordered a special walnut oil for art, did I waste my money? Lol!
Some oils tend to yellow, test it on paper before drawing and let it dry for a couple weeks and you'll see if it does or not.
@@SyndiaArt ok, thank u so much!
Whoever tried and it worked hit like
Let paper or papertowel follow you when you paint around
Tu est francaise?
Oui de Montreal :o)
Maybe I could use baby oil with that crappy artist loft oil pastels from Michael’s
I think it might help yes
Oh! I didn't know you have a dog.
His name is Lennox, he's an english cocker spaniel and the joy of my life :oD
I use too much oil pastel.U have used less and they look clean too
great video but the background music very off putting for hard of hearing people
Baby oil is great for painting but never use it on your babies.
