Honestly, oil pastel is my comfort medium. Using it actually helped me to practice color theory and color mixing since it has limited colours before I began painting. LOVE THIS VIDEO ATE HAM ❤️
Beautiful work and thank you for sharing! I noticed a few times you mentioned letting the pastels dry, but oil pastels are non-siccative, meaning they do not dry. They can set and absorb into the paper, but they will remain workable to some degree (smudges, scratches, etc.). You can use a fixative spray or store with glassine paper on top.
Thanks for giving me that push. I've been dreading for months if i should draw again and this was just the push i needed. Love this very much . Keep doing what you're doing..
Which brand of oil pastels did you use? After using oil pastels for awhile I realised that most of the time it’s the pastels, not the drawers. Meaning, good quality oil pastels like Mungyo Gallery will be much easier to work with and give better results, while the cheaper brands or student grades oil pastels can cause lots of frustration. Also, I believe it’s easier to work in this order: Foreground, mid ground then background. On the same ground level, work from light to dark.
@@adriannacook313 that's a very good point, I am using cheap oil pastels, I find it hard to justify buying better ones currently, but I don't think mine are even branded. Thank you for the tips, I will have to use them if I give them a try again
Its intresting to see an artist who always paints whit gouache and watercolours is using soft oil pastels. That set is very cool as is you,re painting 😊🖐🏾👍🏾
the only thing i hate about pastels is that these things SMUDGE a LOT. Like no matter how much effort i try to put in safekeeping them especially my artworks, there would always be a way so some damn reason where there's a big ass stain on my backpack. Not that it's that hard to remove, it's just too hassling to wash my school bag all over again
A colour shaper - it looks like the same shape as a pencil but instead of lead at one end you have a silicone shape instead. You can get hard, medium or soft. If you look online in Jackson’s you will see what I mean. 😊
this looks so beautiful ! i just brought out my soft pastels a few days ago (first time working with them was horrendous tbh but just working with them a few days ago was very nice !) and i kept going back to your initial review of the paul rubens ones; long story short, this came at just the perfect time!! my fixative spray just came in the mail but, i was curious if you use anything to seal them or if you just let them be as they are?
As a note, these pastels are totally different to the Paul Rubens ones from the earlier video. Paul Rubens does make oil pastels too, like the ones in this video, but I believe their soft chalk pastels were used. Typically soft pastels refers to the chalk ones and not the oil ones, at least in my experience. I don't have much experience with them, just watched videos! I'd imagine though, that you would need to have different kinds of fixatives for the different types of pastels. I just wanted to say something because it would suck if using the wrong fixative could mess up a piece of artwork. Good luck!
The portrait looks good! I agree that the paper texture affects the output from oil pastels. Now, I want to try my gallery oil pastels on my baohong hot pressed paper and my new Fabriano Tiziano. Have you tried these papers for oil pastels?
I "inherited" a big box of oil pastels which I'm psyching myself up to try out (I usually paint in oils). One question I have is: how do I preserve a pastel sketch? Do I use the same fixative spray that I use for pencil and charcoal sketches? Or is there a special fixative for oil pastel sketches?
I wish you could explain the process of why you apply the colors, temperature and shadow colors instead of talking and talking, but of course I will never find a video like that unless I pay for it.

omg using the cap of a ballpen to apply pastels is lowkey genius lol

Yay tips and tricks
True...
a pencil stump is a better option

Ahhh I was needing this!!!
Thank you so much
⤴️
It came out wonderfully!💗💙
⤴️
When I use my oil pastels I use colour shaper tools. They work perfectly for blending and details with this medium. I have different sizes and shapes.
I'm sorry I didn't get it, you use colour sharper tools, what do you mean? English is not my first language

@@gillinacook1477 Oh wow!! I didn't know those existed. I'm exited to get some now. Thank you for answering
Omg thanks for the tip! I now don’t have to smudge and blend the oil pastels using fingers 💗
⤴️
trying so smooth hand 😍
arrtx packages are so pretty
I loved your draw! so cute
Risk is good.good job. You have S looks more painterly than dry pastels….which I Like. I don’t like over blending.
