Paint with Oil Sticks

This material allows oil painting to be approached differently. It extends the artist's freedom of expression, allowing a greater degree of spontaneity, of "expressionism".
The Oil Stick is a composition of oil paint. A proportion of the oil is substituted with a neutral mineral wax, resulting in the stick appearance.These colours are of perfect quality: pure pigments are ground into vegetable oils (siccatives), selected for their low degree of yellowing with time. The choice and high concentration of pigments enables excellent light resistance to be achieved. These colours are applied discreetly to conventional oil painting supports (oil-proof or universal) and demand quality background preparation.
Supports: canvas, canvas boards, laminated panels, paper. Solid oil paint should be applied in a relatively thin film (no more than 1mm). Layers can be overlapped, in the same manner as paste oil paint, and can, if necessary, be thinned with petroleum or turpentine. Before use, the surface film should be removed. This latter will re-form after a few days of non-use. Paint applied dries within 2 to 5 days depending on layer thickness and atmospheric conditions. A clear medium is available allowing transparency and glazing effects to be achieved.
Solid artists' quality colours are available in opaque or transparent shades, depending on the shades of the pigments used. The product may be stored for extended periods of time and requires no special attention, apart from avoiding heat sources that may damage it.Once dry, the paint may be varnished like conventional oil paint, after a minimum drying period of 6 months, using an oil paint finishing varnish.

I love this method so free and allows for such spontaneous creativity.

Lovely, gorgeous painting! The colors and impasto are exquisite!

[@joanwright9404]

I love your work. Thank you for sharing. And the oil sticks are a luxurious experience.

[@steventhomas7292]

Yummy impressionistic effects, great product, gotta get some 😍

[@MarinetteMenominee]

You do what the rest of us dream about my friend!

[@Carol-Bell]

I love this! I love how rich and beautiful the colors are. And it’s so messy, I wonder if it feels a little like the finger paints that children use. And I love how it turned out, a beautiful ocean and beach😊💕

[@maaingan]

There are actually quite a few “famous” adult finger painters, some of them can even achieve photorealism using only their fingers as a tool

[@atlantic_love]

So.....burn through a stick or two and take hours in the process when you could just use a big brush to apply the color in strokes?

[@annem.leclerc4747]

Superbe!! And very impressive, thank you for sharing!! Merci beaucoup!!

Delicious!!

[@Andeana13]

Do these sticks dry or do you have to seal the canvas afterwards ??

[@yeshuaiscomingbackrepent2357]

BEAUTIFUL

[@wastenotwantnotArt]

How long until it dries? Does it need to be varnished?

[@Juliana-Bub]

Merci beaucoup! It's a pleasure to watch you work.

wow. Nice; encouraging and inspiring.

[@TheColtssb41]

Guys, you seem to be confused. Oil sticks are "oil paints". They are nothing like oil pastels. They will dry on your canvas just like the tube paints. But I use them for quick action and gestural drawings as a starting point for my traditional paints. They're not really meant for entire paintings, as you see, too messy!

[@Yahsbsuq]

Also they are very expensive to use on such a big scale! I think they can add a lot to a mixed media painting because its a different effect. Not too great alone

[@SomeOne-sb4xf]

Because it is not a technique for realism. I fell in love with expressionism

[@TheColtssb41]

@@SomeOne-sb4xf You can purchase oil sticks at Jerry's Artarama if you have store near you, if not, they have website! I have the Sennelier, they are very good...

[@DarrylBarnes]

"They're not meant for entire paintings" that is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. You says this immediately after saying it is in fact oil paint which it is. You can use it with a brush it doesn't have to be non stop stick action lol same as pastels.

[@siwain...7759]

I've tried painting it and 3 days have passed and the paint still doesn't appear to be dry. (but not the brand in this clip)

[@leeanngreen772]

What type of oil paint finishing varnish...aka brand? Thanks

This makes painting fun again! 😎

Which oil pastels based on?

What's the title of the background music?

What's the difference between oil pastels and oil sticks?

[@Sennelier]

Oil pastels are wax based, oil stick are iol based. It means oil pastel never dry, but you can use them on all the sufaces (metal, glass, board...) Oil sticks can be mixed with oil from tubes and additives for oil

[@hef_t]

@@Sennelier thank you♥️ finally I know it😛😋

[@3243_]

Actually, the difference between oil pastels and oil sticks is the type of oil used. Oil pastels are made with a non-drying mineral oil, whilst oil sticks are made with the same drying plant-based oils (usually linseed) that are used to make oil paints.

[@SomeOne-sb4xf]

Where to buy exactly this one set ? I couldn’t find it on Amazon

any tips on fixing a canvas with oil sticks on it so that the pastel does not smear?

[@thetimeisnowamerica7035]

Why use oil pastel over oil sticks? The quality is so much better with oil sticks and it will dry and not smear.😊

[@Hevva67]

It’s not oil pastel!!

[@virginiarparker9503]

Oh my...

[@stephaniedragonfly5619]

Quand on préfère dessiner que peindre, je crois que ces sticks s'imposent

[@jimreid9674]

So, they are safe to use and get all over your skin are they? Don't wear gloves, right? Completely harmless, right? Must be as that's what you're demonstrating.

[@MellowWind]

And that will take YEARS to dry.
