Oil pastels techniques / how to use oil pastels for beginners

#oilpastel #artsupplies #howtodraw #oilpasteltechniques
Hi :) My mission with this video is to get you to like this very underrated and misunderstood medium.
Oil pastels can be fun if you know how they work.
I use very inexpensive one like the pentel to show you that even with a student grade set you can still explore and create decent works. There are harder oil pastels like Pentel, Cray-pas and soft oil pastel like Paul Rubens or Sennelier and something in between like Mungyo or Caran D'ache.
Depends on the technique one performs better than the other.

Good helpful video and good comparison on hard vs soft oil pastel and tips. I just wonder if you have a set of Haiya Paul Ruben oil pastel, it’s very soft like Sennelier and softer than Mungyo. Hopefully, you can do a video about Haiya oil pastel? Thank you for the videos

[@artholic9331]

Hi thanks for your Feedback :) . I have bought Haiya set recently. I am still testing them so I can give a honest review.

Actrully the Paul Ruben and sennelier oil pastels are good for blending in paper but you need bettter paper , canvas rolls , canvas if you want to varnish them . Sennelier safflower or green thinner for oil paints are good for Paul Ruben’s oil pastels and sennelier oil pastels ., there more professional and masters 1:54 .

[@artholic9331]

Thanks for the tip I will try the thinner out in the future. Normally I don't use oil or anything to blend I just use the sticks themselves or finger . Don't like the paper from Paul Rubens that much it's too smooth for my taste. And I just spray fixative over. Vanishing is too much work 😅. What kind of paper brand do you use?. Sennelier is more professional but not everyone can afford them so I chose something inexpensive for everyone can start with. But yes sennelier oil pastels are gorgeous 😍.
