Hey everyone! In today's video I'm sharing my thoughts about Tempera sticks and how they compare to Del Green sticks.

Spoiler alert- I like the Tempera ones more for their color choice, packaging and availability.
These are great for sketchbooks and to paint with kids.

I really enjoy tempera sticks! I recently bought a pastel hues set, which has been lovely! They’re so fun to make marks with and I love that they dry waterproof.

Nice vid! I bought a basic pack called Studio at Dollarama, which are the same as the solid coloured tubes. They worked great and I ended up getting the Craftsmart sets at Michael's with coupons. The Craftsmart ones have a Sharpie-like barrel instead of a tube. They're so fun to play with. Will you also be doing a tutorial for these? 🙆

[@iritlandgraf]

I should!! Thanks for sharing!

[@jeanettegillings7202]

They look like a lot of fun! Looking forward to Friday and the new course! ❤

[@iritlandgraf]

Can't wait!

[@ChantelleArts]

These look like so much fun, might have to pick up a pack ☺☺

[@iritlandgraf]

They are!

[@brittabeningfield3472]

I have these and find them fun to take out with a big pad, Derwent drawing black pencil, wet wipe and big waterbrush. They are great for quick, easy, abstract outdoor paintings.... give it a try, it's a fun way to ease into no-hassle plein air with your daughter.

[@iritlandgraf]

Absolutely! Great suggestion!

[@jadexx3]

I ordered these last week! Absolutely love them. I’m thinking about ordering the pastel ones too. They’re opaque

[@iritlandgraf]

Glad you like them!

[@KitKatToeBeans]

The pastel colors are really lovely.

[@pagewhite61]

Those look fun! Thanks Irit.

[@iritlandgraf]

You bet!

[@scruffy281]

Thank you very much for your hard work on this review. VERY HELPFUL!!

[@iritlandgraf]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@THEMAYQUEEN1]

How awesome. The other day I ordered the tempera sticks in light colours. Pastel set. I’m excited ❤️❤️

[@iritlandgraf]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@mjpete27]

Hullo Irit, I am also a believer in having fun just to enjoy creating art! So many times We as Artists get caught up with I must create a piece for sale or even posterity! You gotta have fun and just cut loose on occasion! Thank you for sharing this fun art supply!

[@iritlandgraf]

Well said! Absolutely!!

[@heatherdunbar421]

I have these and absolutely love them!!

[@iritlandgraf]

Thanks for sharing! They are fun! So you have a favorite color?

[@ashtoncousins54]

Kwik Stix has this shape and a thinner pencil like shape! They’re super good quality and I really like using the thinner pencil shape in sketchbooks ❤️

[@iritlandgraf]

Thanks for the tip!

[@dianaromig732]

Wow! 🤩 I agree that the tempura sticks have some better colors. Amazon is having a lightning deal for the 40 color set for the same price as the 32 set but only for the next 15 minutes 🎉

[@iritlandgraf]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@KonjikiKonjiki]

Oh Irit, it has been such a long time since I last heard you on a video, but I recognised your lovely lilt immediately. :). I have been experiementing with my supplies a lot and am really particular about the pigment not feeling gummy or sticky to the touch afterwards. These tempura sticks sounds exactly what I was looking for! A colour rich medium that are enjoyable to work with and dry on paper lets me work up concepts for canvases and other substrates. :)

[@iritlandgraf]

Welcome back! Great to have you here and let me know if you try these and like them! They are very fun and easy to play with!

[@KonjikiKonjiki]

@@iritlandgraf :) ty! I have been playing with the tempura sticks today in a Dina Wakely journal -- I have a hard time with the burlap pages . They apply really well but are not drying over acrylic paint layers which is expected but I was hopeful til I tried. Some of the colours are transparent and it is really fun to layer basic geometric shapes overlapping each other a bit. They also worked really well on lighter weight paper, , a little less than 100 gsm notebook from the Tim Holtz line. For me, these were definitely worth trying at least once, but I may not repurchase unless my skill level catapults past making circles.

[@iritlandgraf]

Haha challenging stuff! Those burlap pages are not my fave at all... I mostly just glued stuff on top... I think the tempra sticks are great for quick studies, colour studies and just relaxing, no special skills necessary ☺️

[@ultramarinetoo]

I recently got these through Amazon, and they are fun! Quite fat, so not so much control which makes it easy to be "loose" and lovely vibrant colours.

[@janicepruitt3458]

Would love to see you paint a picture with these.

[@iritlandgraf]

Thanks for commenting! I use them for sketching, color studies and playing, not on "proper" pictures since they are not artist grade.

[@Gripfastvids]

What Tempera Paint Sticks do you recommend for artwork you would sell? High end, top end tempera stick?

[@iritlandgraf]

Hi! I'm not familiar with any, sorry! The closest thing for a similar effect would be oil pastels (which need a fixative) or oil sticks. Many artist grade brands make the first ones, Sennelier and R&F make good oil sticks. However unlike tempra sticks, you can't really layer much on top of oil pastels or sticks... Hope that somewhat helps 😬

[@DeshArt]

Most of the children's products are (almost) identical irrespective of the brand. I find little use in comparing them. Just scribble away...
