I love how blunt this guy is. “Don’t colour it in like a crayon. That’s gonna look terrible.” 10/10 But in all serious this was very helpful. I’ve been an artist for a long time but have never used oil pastels until recently. This video really gave some helpful tips about blending and colouring
i used to colour LIKE using a crayon, and it did turned out terrible. That was why I use acrylic only. But hey, I am excited to try oil pastel again after watching this
Very well done video. I have been a professional artist for 40 years and never used oil pastels. I just bought some today and here we are. You probably saved me hours of frustration.
I remember my oldest brother use to draw and color like this, it is what inspires me to get back into drawing. Another something that I have learned to come back too because it give me peace and I enjoy that time because I have no thoughts just drawing or coloring.
PS. I agree about the black... Other dark colors are better, when I first started with oil pastels I used them like I was coloring in a coloring book too. But it is REALLY better to dab them on so you can mix other colors in with it. Same goes for regular pastels. You now have a new subscriber Thanks again
I still use my oil pastel like a crayon. I know if the pastel was made with good oil in it, and has not dried out, then I can smudge with finger, tissue or towel. Also, with Q-tip or brush dip in oil, I use linseed oil, which also blends and give a more painting effect. But, I like the advice of the rule of 3s, thank you.
Well, blow me down! This is the first art video in ages that I have seen that has actually presented something that is totally new to me, and makes so much sense! Long live the blobby dabby dashi method!
Siana Rose I agree and I think if you think of it like a skillful hand using eyeliner, it brings out the beauty and while it can be seen it makes you focus on the eye not on the eyeliner it’s self. 👁✍🏻
I Love This ! As Someone who's been stuck and Too afraid to Do Any Art for far Too Long, hearing those Immortal Words; "Let's face it, who really cares" Has 'Smiled ' me back into doing my art again ! Thanks Patrick !!
Very fun tutorial--I was given a set of cheap oil pastels to play with, but I've hardly used them. I now have a fun experimental project to start on thanks to your advice on mixing colors and trying abstract shapes. :)
Thank you Patrick. Very helpful video. Love the 'lets face it, who really cares' bit. Im a newbie to the world of Art and loving/enjoying my journey. Min :)
Have seen groupings of 3 analogous colors in larger oil pastel boxes and in other media as well. Always thought it was pleasing to the eye. Good to see it in practice with a smaller set and with entertaining narration. Thanks!
Thats so great to hear! Good luck to you and remember the first ones you do probably aren't going to be the best ones you do... Just keep making more and more and they will get better and better
You should allready know art teachers don't teach you anything different after 6th grade boi. I graduated and my art teacher that year was still talking about type of lines and methods of shading.
Thank you for this. I've dabbled in oil pastels a bit over the years but the only technique I knew was what you said not to do, coloring in one layer like a crayon and blending it. I always thought it looked terrible. This tutorial gives me an idea of what I need to do now. Thanks again
Great tutorial! I am very happy I found it. I had no idea how to paint with oil pastels. I got a box of 24 colors at Goodwill for $2.49. Now to make the most of that deal! :)
Thank you... I am a watercolor artist and omg now I am going to give these a try and feel good about it... ;) Great video for anyone who isn't sure how to use these oil pastels...
Cool, really liked your video. I paint w/ oils , watercolor and acrylic. Love to draw and work with pastels too. I use mineral spirits to blend my colors, it works nice with a brush , after I have finished my drawings. I like how yours came out. And thanks for sharing about the water based urethane, learn something new everyday. Oil pastels are really cool
Excellent tutorial. You made some really good suggestions and that demo piece was beautiful. I've noted some of your tips, as just starting out in oil pastels. Thank-you!
Love your attitude, man! Who cares, right? You tell it like it is, explain the do’s & don’t’s without preaching! It is a pity some folks are not born artists but at least you are helping them learn about the basics! Enjoyed your video!
Message. That was excellent nice pictures. Excellent presentation. Working on one myself using black and green using my finger and a little walnut oil with my oil pastels. Thank you. Sending love to all from Michigan USA
Thank you! I recently bought some oil pastel, super basic for kids, as I want to start painting and drawing for fun and not just for my profession. This has been a super helpful for an oil pastel beginner like me!
This video was so useful! I have to use oil pastels for my school project and I haven't had any experience with the medium. This really saved me, new subscriber for you!
Loved the lesson, I've started using oil crayons for some diversity, but mainly I love the vibrancy! Thanks for the rule of 3s info I've never heard that before! 💙 💓 💚
Thank you so much for your help. I received some oil pastels for Christmas. I was intimidated with them,and, would have colored like a crayon. Your rule of 3s gave me forage to try😉
What an eye-opening video! Thank you seems so fundamental and basic but this was exactly what I was looking for so I could probably use my oil pastels. I always felt using like a crayon was just somehow wrong
Dude, thank you. This video actually helped me understand how to use these pastels! I tried using a shit quality oil pastel set a year or so ago and gave up because I was using them like crayons! But how you explained it clicked with me so again I say thank you!🤘
Thank you for this video, in my school here in germany, since elementary school we were told to use oil pastels but they never told us how to actually use them!! So thanks again for this video !!
OMG THANK YOU!! I’ve mostly been using colour pencils so I used mine like crayons and wondered why the results always looked bad but now I can see what I did wrong. Thank you!!!
I never knew these techniques with oil pastel. I learned to use it the hard way - trial and error. Used this medium once in coloring cartoon characters.
This is great video. I have been using this technique with prisma colored pencils for a while. And I couldn't transfer it over to oil pastels, but I understand it now, with your method of shading. Thanks for the tip on contrasting. Keep up the great videos!
What a wonderful and concise introduction to oil pastels. Thank you 😊 I'm an accomplished artist who was in tears last night when I opened up my first box of oil pastels. I thought that I entered the twilight zone. It looked like 💩 BECAUSE I WAS COLORING! I better go fetch the set out of the trash can and try again.
Very informative... I bought some oil pastels yesterday after 30 odd years... Tried out a little colouring today, but I wasn't blending well. This was really helpful!
Thanks for this! My teacher doesn't nessisarly teach but always uses very complex mediums, especially since we all are in middle school, even though hardly anyone knows how to use them. I learned more from this video from my teacher. Thank you again glad a found this channel, Im defently going to use these tips for all next year.
a tried this for the first time today and (while I'm an artist, I'm not a fine artist. I'm a writer and musician. even then, I'm no professional at any art) and I found it to be surprisingly intuitive! I worked at a paint store and became a professional color matcher (you know the color matching tool....I can do that by eye), so adding more than one color, at least three, seemed like the right thing to do. my wife and kids have all work with these before, were taught by teachers and completed pieces of art....so, w,hen I first started, they all, LOVINGLY, were like "that's not how I was taught..I mean, do what you want...it just seems like you want to do it wrong, is all" 😂 I'm cool with my first tries being utter failures, especially when it's me just....trying out a new art form for the fun of it. I expect to fail. If I were to make fine art my first time with oil paints, for example..... 🤷♂️ what the hell? most times, I have to learn a thing before I can be bad enough to know how good it can be. My art was, I admit, very juvenile looking and wasn't very good, however, after I made my first piece (mixing yellow, orange and red to make fire, then using black to make smoke...which, get this: totally made the whole thing objectively worse. who knew? 😄 I should have watched thus video first).... they all kept asking me "for real, though...you've never done this before?" or "you've really never been trained with these?" I only had 12 colors.....I have more, just those 12 handy. not too bad! I found the rest tonight, so now I have enough to actually make the colors I wanted to make! I use watercolor pencils mostly, as those can be blened and make nice colors. I did some cartoon characters for my kids when they were little using them and outlining in pen. ....I like these though. 😄
I bought Crayola oil pastels at Wal-mart and the next week they rolled the price back, I can't go too far wrong at $2.97Cdn, but they only sell the 16 pack here.

Looks like a 10 year old tried and made something like a faint memory

Blobby dabby dashi method... Is the best technique name I've ever heard on this journey of art and learning! ☺
I still use my oil pastel like a crayon. I know if the pastel was made with good oil in it, and has not dried out, then I can smudge with finger, tissue or towel. Also, with Q-tip or brush dip in oil, I use linseed oil, which also blends and give a more painting effect. But, I like the advice of the rule of 3s, thank you.

I use baby oil.

I thought the black made it even more beautiful gave it more definition, in my opinion
LOVELY PANDA QUEEN I agree with you. The black made it pop!
Like stained glass!

Your application of the pastel makes a huge difference, possibilities for impressionist type pictures
The zen oil pastel project...that was hot...I like this Rule of 3's and extreme contrast stuff. Thanks for a tutorial!
I haven't used oil pastels since elementary art class. Thanks for making this tutorial!
Thank you for sharing that-the rule of 3 and the application technique! It's goin' in my bookmarks.
Polycrylic. I love it. A water based seal over oil pastels. Like gesso , it’s perfect. I’m sold
This has actually really helped me! I'm new to pastels. So thank you!

"red and green-"
*shows brown colored pastel instead*
"well that's not green"
uwu
well, red plus green equals brown.
so technically he wasn't wrongg
Lmfao
You need to get out more you moron !
At first, I was a little skeptical at the techniques shown. But right now, I am trying it, and it REALLY WORKS! Thanks so much!
Mehek Niwas Awesome to hear!
Excellent explanations and techniques 😊
Actually ive been an artist for a long time and needed to learn hoe to use oil pastels and this is very helpful thank u so much
