I discovered oil pastels around 2010. Before that, I was an acrylic and oil painter. For me, Oil pastels are the perfect hybrid medium in that you can draw and paint with, and produce amazing artworks that have that "painterly" look. Might be most versatile and immediate medium I've used.
This channel is all about discovery, exploration and mastery of oil pastels, and I offer full length, unedited tutorials where we dive deep into this medium and learn how to get around some hurdles when trying to use oil pastels.
I use up to 5 brands of oil pastel (Sakura CrayPas Expressionist, Mungyo, Van Gogh, Neopastel and Sennelier). I also occasionally use Nupastel (hard pastel) for underpainting. I also test and experiment with different surfaces, and I go over fixatives and how to protect Oil pastel artwork
