For myself .Start with darker shades .Apply pressure on first layer .Overlap the colors .Blend from light to dark

[@aleksandragiza9463]

I've recently started my artistic journey with oil pastels and I have to say, this video was super helpful (even for a beginner like me). Thank you so much!!

The method with the dots looks amazing! Want to try this out soon !! Instead of paper stomps I love using so called "colour shapers", they look like brushes with a rubber tip and you can blend details sooo smoothly without wasting lot of product

[@marshad1807]

A few other blending methods I use: 1. Extra firm silicone sculpting tools (clay or colour shapers). They come in a variety of tip shapes & sizes, the chisel being my favorite as I can use it to make clean edges. Small ones are great for detailed areas and large ones are almost as effective as finger-blending. With the extra-soft pastels you can even put some pastel on the tip and "paint" with it much like a brush. Unlike a brush, though, it's non-porous and will not absorb the pigment. Cleanup is easy -- just wipe with a paper towel. 2. Cotton swabs. You can dip them in mineral oil prior to blending for a washy effect. I don't use these as often because the cotton fibers like to get stuck to the drawing surface. Also, when using with student-grade pastels, they tend to remove a lot of the pigment from the paper. I have read about using a vinyl eraser meant for pencils to blend oil pastels, but this hasn't worked for me. It just rubs the color off. As always, great video, quality content. :)

[@ranaaydn8989]

For oil wash I use waterbrush and fill it with oil. No cotton pieces on paper

[@motsidisirankwe7330]

I have been struggling with depression for a while so I have a difficult time expressing myself so I started using oil pastels and paint just to relieve stress and express myself. This is super helpful cause I want the work to at least make sense or be lookable 😂😂 when completed.

[@elaineg60]

One more..eraser pencil, sharpened to a point for details, or bigger, flatter eraser surface for larger areas. I actually liked this more than stumps or fingers…but it’s probably because when I first began painting Yantras with oil pastels-I’d never worked with them before and had absolutely NO idea what I was doing. All my yantras were also done on handmade silk/cotton paper made in India. I had people swear they HAD to be watercolors or oils because of how I did them…NOPE! JUST me over 20yrs ago, finding a meditative, beautiful art form I loved. In recent years I’ve been doing Chinese brush painting, and now western watercolors. I’d all but forgotten that I still have some yantras and paper…AND some oil pastels! I just couldn’t find another eraser pencil (it’s just wood w an eraser in the middle instead of lead)-until now. My best friend, a professional watercolor artist wants me to get back into it, maybe paint florals or landscapes instead of yantras. I haven’t decided yet..my plate is a bit full at the moment. But, I purchased 3 eraser pencils..in case I change my mind! 😁. (Actually, after typing this..I think I might experiment on some Chinese Xuan paper..it’s much thinner than my cotton-silk paper, but it’s pretty tough!)

[@DeshArt]

How amazing! Great idea too. I will be trying that as soon as I get the time. Enjoyed your description. I always like to hear what other artists do. Thanks for visiting!
