Which drawing is your favorite? Also Have you used these? Or will you?
All of them. And no, never used oil pastel but maybe i will
I LOVED ALL OF THEM! But I will say that my favorite is the 2nd and 3rd ones that you did because the colors just popped and spoke to me more~ Beautiful work😁🖌🎨💛
Loved all of the drawings someone should pay for a lifetime supply of sellinier and mungyo for you're skill deserves it
I like the female drawing more only because the way you drew her facial features she almost looks like the type of female you'd see in a Renaissance painting and I love that.
I liked the flat top boi the most too
Its ok if your sponsored, don't work for Free Bestie! Not only should they have sent you the products to review but also payed you for your time to film and edit this video. You can still give an honest opinion because this is a review after all. Don't let them get free promo and make money off you it says a lot about a company that does this. We love you and your craft!!
*you’re
big on this!!
Im im a completely different genre of art than you. But I find your color choices and the smoothness and shapes you have in your drawings to be totally study worthy. I am obsessed. Ive used oil pastels before but what youre able to do with them is so impressive.
This. As I was reading your comment it was almost exactly what I wanted to say. I use different mediums, the genre and my style are vastly different. But his work is incredible. I honestly think doing a study of his work would do me A LOT of good. To get outside my comfort zone, be more loose and expressive, and play with unexpected colors. I actually bought this set of pastels a while ago, so I'll take this as my sign.
Well said! He really pushes the colors to their limit. The art style itself is so distinctive and original too
you really are the only artist i can watch all the way through, i love the way you do EVERYTHING. you've really inspired me to more with my art
Facts!! I usually have to speed up or skip through other people's videos but his are so entertaining start to finish
@@menak8870 ADHD? XD
Love his technique.
@@Kokose 👀that obvious eh 😅 💀
Yup hahaha
@@menak8870 adhd artist here too and I still have to skip to the main parts :)
thats crazy how well the fixative brought the colours out omg
Sometimes I think bean really knows what he’s doing and professional like and then he refuses to acknowledge the color green again, i love it
I personally believe that someone’s art style really comes from the artists personality. And I think that really shows with you! Your personality is fun and unexpected and so is your art style!
I like these, but not for a whole picture. Because yes, these are STICKY, that is exactly what I thought when I first used them, my goodness are they ever sticky. I also find them quite inconsistent. Many of the colors are nice and creamy and opaque, and then you get some inbetween that are transparent and feel like a glue stick. I like them, and I would buy them again for what they cost, I think they are a really good value, but I do not want to use them just on their own. My favorite oil pastels are Mungyo Soft and Neopastel, which I find very similar to eachother. I like that smooth even type of creaminess. This sticky thing about the Paul Rubens does make things difficult for me. And man, I am glad that someone else has finally mentioned it, because with all these positive reviews, I was feeling like I am the only one who finds that an issue. I like to start out with a harder pastel and then take the Paul Rubens to add the final layer, I think that works really great, but I have not enjoyed doing the full work with the Paul Rubens.
I need a print of all three of these because these are too beautiful and cool to not make prints of! I love the colors you use and I really love your imagination to your art! Its so inspirational to me, my channel, and my style~🖌🎨❤😁
I feel the same way!!! The color palettes are SO nice to look at!
I know right? they're so gorgeous to look at!
I want you to be aware of the fact that you are the only opinion I trust when it comes to reviews on oil pastels 😂 I'm trying to find a set for my travel sketchbook, and you are the first and only name that comes to mind when it comes to oil pastels. Much love Bean 💙💙💙
Interesting that they could be a dupe for sennelier, might have to try them since that would save me some coin. As always I love your reviews, content, art and personality! ❤
*selener 👀
They’re really nothing like sennelier IMO. Sennelier is creamy and these are more sticky, and I actually don’t think they layer well unless you blend them out with your hand or something first like he does in the video
They are NOT a Sennelier dupe at all. They are more suited to impasto style - they are difficult to work with.
@@liliax9147 Agree 100 % I was very disappointed with mine.
Caroline, Don't bother. I ruined several pictures using them. Literally you finger gets stuck to them, they peel off, flake and aren't worth the 25 they cost.
Can i just say i really appreciate this non sponsored, honest review? I have absolutely no problem with artists accepting sponsorships or products, but it is also refreshing to hear some more open opinions :D
I don’t think I’ll ever get over how much I love your stylization of the face and your use of color. Also, I’m left handed too! Amazing as always
I clicked sooooo fast. These were the first oil pastels I ever used and bought. I commented once or twice wanting you to review them because I was undecided. The crumbles were frustrating for me too! but I found if i left the crumbs on for a day or two they seemed to dry out and lose the stickiness so I could brush the piece carefully. With the shiny finish of each piece it just made me more aware of how my fingers were being used so any prints on the piece were done purposefully. Also a q-tip enabled me to smudge in finer detail and some areas honestly I found were best not being smudged AT ALL. I’m AGAIN so glad you reviewed these. The first piece you did was my favourite and the fixident really helped the colours to POP.
Your work is wonderful but your personality is supreme. You make my day. Please post more often.
I just want to say thank you! I've been in a pretty bad place lately and thanks to you , your art , and your personality , I'm starting to come round to a better place
You make me smile with your AMAZING personality and the more a person smiles and laughs the harder it is to be sad. and your art inspires me in my own art journey. So again thank you for being you!
As a non professional it’s so interesting to see the pieces that “don’t work out” because every time you put pen to paper it just blows my mind how talented you are. But I trust your expertise
I really like that last drawing! the blue highlight you put in the underneath of people's noses in your drawings is so satisfying and makes the faces really "pop" to me
Genuinely glad I caught this. I've got watercolors from Paul Rubens and I definitely know the feeling of having to just play with them and get used to them. I love them though and I've been curious about oil pastels after getting a Faber Castell set in an art box. Im glad to hear basically the same thing that I heard about their watercolors: mid-ish quality at a good price. Putting these on my amazon wish list right now.
P.s. my fave was the flat top boy.
This was an EXCELLENT review. You gave all the pros and cons. I like creamy but with sticky crumbles the side of my hand will mush them around. Still I might try them. I always learn so much from you- I like that you pointed out the values were less dark when you blended- but it looked a lot better with the fixative. Anyway, you’re truly the best and love watching you do op. I would watch a whole op painting in real time without skipped parts or speeded up if you posed that.
Mr. and or Mizz. Bean i think this has been your best video yet. I think the duration was good and the audio
Ikr we love a good long juicy video
Thanks for reviewing these, it’s good to know about the inconsistency with the texture issue.
But, WOW these two drawings are wonderful!! So gorgeous when you added the texture of the scratchy-scratch on the last one. (Bummed it was a frustrating process because of the stickiness)
Personally, I 😍love😍 the Chi-Chi hair inspo close up piece, the character is rather androgynous and I love the composition of the figure being partially cropped. Gorgeous work as usual. 💗
I'm on my second box of the Paul Rueben oil pastels. I started with Sennelier but I'm a new artist and Sennelier is really pricey. I love Sennelier bc they're like lipstick and the colors are amazing. I'm a big fan of the uber soft oil pastels. I agree Paul Rueben OP's are a decent Sennelier knock-off which is why I use them. I love the blendability of PR. And I do love the colors, however you're right, there is some inconsistencies with creaminess and they do tend to be a little shiney. Neither of those things stop me from using them.
Thank you! I've always loved pastels and just getting back into art as an outlet period. Thank you for reviewing all these different pastels so I can pick what's best for me!!! 💖
Absolutely love the second portrait! As to recommendations of pastels to check out - van Gogh oil pastels! They are pretty cheap I think and maybe a bit less creamy but they are fun to use (their white seems to be better for blending because it is not that opaque tho)
So fascinating to me that people actually make art with oil pastels. Not many people out there using oil pastels.... But your art is incredible!
if you want creamier blues (because i had the problem in which the blues didn’t apply very opaque and soft) roll them in ur hand and heat them up. it will look more like the others if that texture is what ur going for. for some reason the blues just need to be heated
I love your reviews because you have so much personality and energy, you just put everyone in a good mood slay king
I love seeing both your background art and the art you make for videos. Just your whole vibe is so comforting and encouraging. (I got back into my weird little sculptures after watching one of your shorts; you're really inspiring.)
Your portraits are gorgeous! I often use oil pastel just for my backgrounds, making something loose and rough to contrast with a smoother coloring style on the subject of my piece. But it's been a while since I used all pastel and tried to make them look, you know, good. 😂 I got this brand for Christmas recently and loved the texture, you've definitely got me inspired to pull them out and experiment again!
one thing that was very illuminating for me was that you don't like all of your drawings and that you started over. every time I make mistakes or something that is just meh, I get so discouraged. to know that even professional artist do this is really inspiring. yeah, "failure" can be inspirational. thank you for all you do. love your content.
Gurl your energy and presence is EVERYTHING! you inspire me to do art!
That’s flattop drawing of yours made me wanna jump outta my braids lol 🤣
Love you and the art
I'm so excited to see you with oil pastels again 🤗😍
OMG you made me scare my cats with an outburst of a hag cackle!🤣 "I was so excited I put on lotion, it might not look like it...shut up!"👏🤣😂 The world needs your energy, your humor.....🥰
New to your channel and binging your videos right now, what is your favorite paper and pastels?
I'm in such a rut, a road block....argh!!!! Thank you for sharing yourself♥️
I NEED a print of that portrait of the girl (the 90s-ish one) I hope you release one!! and make it biiiiiiiig
I love the flattop so much.. it's just so beautiful, I paused and just looked at it for like 5 minutes. Thanks for the video!
I love the "To Wong Foo" reference picture. I think your two finished paintings turned out fabulously.
AND I love your style!!! The colors and blending are really beautiful and I enjoy the exaggerated features of your subjects very much. I like the scratching away of material too! So glad I found your channel! 💜🧡
I hope to one day be an artist like you! Also I love your reviews💙💙💙
Both drawings are bomb, but I gotta go with the second one as well. The flat top with the funky scratches just looks so good!
I might not be someone requesting these reviews, since I don't work in oil pastels myself, but I sure do love them :)
The emotional build-up and the expressions in general got me entertained. We love an honest review, I like them both! I'm anticipating if you'll gonna be using them next time, I'm invested in your reaction and the birth of drama.
I love your videos and reviews! Your happy personality radiates, thank you.
I'm just starting out with oil pastels - currently have the Sennelier 48, waiting for my Munguyo 48 and also have several less expensive ones from Daiso and some VanGogh.
I’ve been waiting for a post so yay
i'm binging your content right now, and i feel so inspired with your creativity. your warm and energetic vibe is infectious too!!!
I really enjoy these. Having started with such firm and un-blendable pastels, the Paul Rubens have been exactly what I wanted.
Honestly I’d love to see videos of just you making whatever art you want and showing the process sped up to a reasonable length.
the company is a very old established elite brand in europe, and more importantly, very cool haircut. like the way you avoided all those horrible hard lines and the natural taper at the back is on point. the second picture is amazing.
Paul Rubens? It's a Chinese company.
Nah, different brands with the same name. It says on their website they were founded 1998, always been Chinese, too. There have been older products in Europe branded with the name Rubens, though Idk about that one being a renowned elite brand. This Paul Rubens seems to just have been getting their foot into the European market within the last ~5ish years, the products seem kind of hit or miss but mostly surprisingly good for the price.
oops, my mistake.
I absolutely adore all of your videos! Also if you’re looking for recommendations for future videos- I’d love to see you try like an a strictly black and white oil pastel drawing or a monochromatic portrait with just various shades of purples or blues for example. I absolutely adore all of your art and your art is so inspirational to me with my art :’)
I think the difference may be with creamer oil pastels, it gets deeper into the paper, which means the white of the paper isn't showing through, making the colors look dull.
The creaminess would make the blending easier and the two colors become muddy when combined because the pigments would mix together more than with a dryer pastel.
I came here for the art collab, I stayed for the skills. Man, you have some talent! Love your work!
You sold me on using oil pastel, I wasn't keen on buying some but now I do want to try them! Thanks for your honest review!!!
Have you ever used Chalk pastels? I'm really getting into those on some black paper. Also do you have a method protecting oil pastels or getting them to dry?
Also I saw you use no green, you clearly used a completely different color called blellow.
Yep. The grass is always blellower on the other side.
He doesn’t like the color green lmao,
Oil pastels never fully dry down they will always be movable until you spray a fixative like he did. The fixative as he said makes it so the colors don't mix anymore. Otherwise your colors will stay creamy to an extent.
I just found you and Wow! You're so funny and you articulate the characteristics of your media so well.
I love your art style too. I like the flat-top painting the best because of the scratching. I have never seen this technique before. It really adds to the overall feel of the painting. You did such a nice review. One thing I'd like to see you try is the pallet knife technique.
I liked and subscribed so I can see more of your inspitational work. Love 😘
I desperately want them on my walls. You are so talented!
Your art drawing and pastel colouring is fantastic♥️👏👏👏Bit nervous about using Oil Pastels.Thanks for demo.
I can’t even lie this is most definitely one of my favorites!!
Omg I just bought those. 😱😱😱
I will have to re-watch a play with them…… with you. 🤗💕
Hey bud Paul Rebens has reformulated their oil pastels. They are called "Haiya" oil pastels by Paul Rubens. They are considered a sennelier dupe. Let me know what you think. I have them and I think they are intact very close. Thanks for all your reviews!❤
Finally! I found another Left Handed pastel artist! I am retraining myself to use my left hand, since my right isn't working right anymore, so I search for leftys that I enjoy watching and whose art is truly inspiring! Thanks, Teresa
I guess the second lady is my favorite, since I can watch your hand work better, I am shopping for pastels now and have two of these sets on order right now!
every video i am more shocked at how amazing you are, your art is incredible, congrats
All 5 people are popping off
My word. First time watching your channel. I’m obsessed with your style.
I like the "puzzle".... He/she got this look... and a smile.... 😉 Gooooooood work! 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 😍
Both of your pieces are amazing!! The very first one you did (that you scrapped) was lovely, too, I really liked that one -- but the second one you finished is definitely my favorite.
As for recommendations, altho they're pricey, would you ever consider trying Caran D'ache Neopastels?
yes i love paul rubens oil pastels so much, they are soo creamy, i haven't taken into account the shininess but their cream is 10/10~ u should get the pastel light color set! the colors are so nice and light and pretty in them, 10/10 uwu!!
Question: have ever tried the pan pastels? I know they’re a lot different than oil pastels but was wondering if you would ever consider trying them 😁 (also, I have not tried them either lol)
Oil pastels are my favorite medium. I use Paul Rubens too. I just received the Morandi set in the mail yesterday. I have been waiting for YOU to review them. I have pastel storage but still have the lovely boxes in my closet.
I almost ordered that set...would love to know what you think about the colors and if they lived up to your expectations. I opted to purchase their 2 macaron color sets and love them. I use them ailing side my mungyo gallery set.
PS did you order yours through Ali Express?
@@stephanie_smith I expected a muted palette but still find the pastels very colorful. They are creamy like other Paul Rubens oil pastels with some inconsistent texture between colors as some reviewers of the other sets have pointed out. I like them all very much but I still use my other pastels too.
@@eBookHoarder thank you for responding!! Its sounds like you are enjoying them as a beautiful addition. I did notice a little inconsistencies in some of my pastels too depending perhaps on the pigments?? If I recall the darker and or more earthy colors have that grit? Its been a while since I have used them. :) I did try to compare the imagery of the morandi colors to my large set of Mungyo galleries and the macarons to see if there was overlap in colors. I have opted to wait BC I feel like any colors I have missing to make a full Morandi pallette I could just mix and add with my palette knife if needed. But boy am I still tempted to get the set. I am just waiting it out to be released to the US market as I have only seen them on Ali Express.
Again thank you for replying and enjoy creating!!
This is really helping me choose which brand to use. You are so talented and adorable!
Im definitely stopping work to watch this
I LOVE THE SCRATCHY SCRATCH😝!!!!!!!! Beautiful artwork as always,keep up the amazing work❤️❤️❤️❤️
I absolutely love the second drawing, especially the colors🥰
Oh man, I wish I’d watched this before ordering these. I just opened my box and was like “whoa, these are sticky…” and looked up reviews and found yours…I adore your work and didn’t even realise you’d reviewed these! 😅
I’m still gonna give these a try…after all, I already paid for them… I haven’t used oil pastels since high school, and that was my predominant medium… I wanted to get back in to that and see what I can do with the experience I’ve gained since then in developing my art style, but I’m nervous. After watching your review, I’m super nervous!! 😅😅 I think I used to use whatever random supplies the school had, so probably old and hard pastels.
I’m gonna give it a go, though (and watch your reviews before I spend any more!) 😂🎉
You have got to find a set of Ooly Twisty Stix! I got mine at an Art museum gift shop and haven't been able to find them since, but I love them. They are my gold standard
How have I not been recommended this channel earlier, I love you art style smm
I just discovered Holbein student oil pastels. In Australia, everything is more expensive (roll eyes) and I found them for only $1.25 each! I bought 18 colours to try out. I've always disliked oil pastels becuase of how messy they can get. But through your videos, I want to try it out and love them lol. Maybe give those a go and let me know if they're good oil pastels (clearly I wouldn't have a clue whether theyre deemed good or not)
Im really diggin Mr.Scratchy Scratch Erasey Racer Head. Your Imagination is so Colorful and awesome! Thank you for all the cool videos. You inspire me to become a better artist. OH, also I have never worked with Pastels that much Im mostly into pencil charcol and graphite art. 🖍✏🖌🎨🖼❣❣
Always love your content! You’ve inspired me so much over the past two years. Your videos introduced me to oil pastels and I have loved them since. Plus you’re left handed which has truly been helpful to me as I learn more about Art.
I have used a few different oil pastels including the mungyo and crayola, but my affordable go to oil pastel is from hobby lobby. The Master’s Touch Premium Soft Oil Pastels from hobby lobby are pretty decent and I would love it if you tried them out! Also, added the Paul Rubens to my Amazon cart 😂
Again thank you for sharing your passion, creativity, and talent with me and the rest of this weird world!
Stay Awesome!!! 🤩🥰
The painting of boy hit me harder. It's my favourite. Awesome content please make more. :D
This is my first time enjoying your content and I subscribed instantly. You. Are. Hillllaaaarious! Firstly you are super talented! Secondly that flat top painting was absolutely beautiful! It was so expressive and proud and I was fully entranced by the scratchy scratchy you did all over it. I love your use of every colour. You use so much of your heart in your art and it shows! I don't know your name or what cms stands for, sorry but I'm old hun, but I really love your art and I think you are totally brilliant. God bless you hun.
Thanks you, mine are due today so very useful. As a beginner you are my oil pastel king, loving all your videos, great help. Thank you.
I can't help but try out my new pastels by putting them on my hands now thanks to you lol. Love your work man
Your skin looks amazing.
I so love watching you make your act
gosh, your videos always put me in a such good mood, and i love your art deeply
I don't know if you like arts and crafts, but I love the videos where you bring you artistic style to craft type things. I enjoy seeing you tackle different media.
I love your Caroline doll , the Halloween reef , and that time you made that "Little shop of horrors " plant. All great videos.
Oh yeah, that rug was also pretty cool.
HI out there. Another fun video to explore your reviews and talent. I'm always impressed by your use of wicked skin tone rhythms. I love both portraits, so I dunno which one I like more! Aahhhhh! Take care out there in this crazy existence. TTFN.
i was so afraid of learning techniques from other artists, even using references made me feel like i wasnt “really drawing” WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT EVEN MEAN??? thank you for being real and having opinions and being an actual human with emotions
im not even done watchingthis video YOU CAN SCRAPE OFF OIL PASTELS LIKE THAT????
I love how clean and confident your sketches are. Same goes for your pastel work, you make it look so damn easy!
Liking it? LIKING IT?!! How about ABSOLUTELY LOVING IT, you danged perfectionist!!! It’s GORGEOUS. STOP JUST LIKING YOUR ART. LOVE IT.
I saw Chinese artists and hobbyist usually cake them up, apply them with painting knife like thick oil or acrylic paint, to create decorative and dreamy illustration.
I used them a few days ago to make a litttle portrait mixed with some cray pas. Pretty nice results 👍🏼
ok but the first drawing is giving the Birth of Venus vibes and as an art history nerd I REALLY LOVE THAT
omg Chi Chi Rodriguez, YES!!! 😍 Love this video and your work is absolutely beautiful. Thank you for blessing the world with your art, sir.
I just wanna say thank you again for being an absolute ray of sunshine! I LOVE watching your videos, and I look forward to each and every one of them. They're an absolute joy!
LIVING for your review and watching you work! a new subscriber and thrilled about it! 🙋🏽♀💜
Oh I absolutely love the dark haired woman, she really stands out to me, it’s cool to see you take your style in a different direction that’s still true to you.
Coming back to this review, thanks, I was thinking about the Paul Ruben, but you made up my mind, thanks
You have converted me to the virtues of the scratchy-scratch. My scratchy of choice is an off-brand pick used for cleaning and refurbishing heavy machinery. It was on sale.
Yep, I think I gave it the exact same review. Good to have another artist verify.
