R&F Pigment Sticks Translucent Color Set of 6 (38ml) + Gessobord PanelSave Up to30%Off listAssorted Colors Professional quality oil paints in stick form R&F Pigment Sticks are oil paints manufactured with enough wax for the paint to be molded into stick form. Pigment Sticks allow the artist to draw or paint directly onto a surface without brushes, palettes, paint tubes, or solvents. Blending only finely milled pigments, natural wax (beeswax & plant wax), and alkali refined linseed oil, R&F Pigment Sticks have none of the additives, extenders, and substitutes that traditional tube oils contain. While the use of these adulterations can save a lot of work and reduce the cost of materials, they lower the quality of the paint. Consequently, the formulas are complex, and manufacturing is labor intensive and thus handmade in small batches where they are carefully milled and molded. The result is a professional quality oil Pigment Stick with a buttery, lipstick-like soft consistency that glides onto the painting surface. Paint Sticks can be thinned with traditional solvents, mixed with or used under or over traditional oils, or worked with a palette knife to a softer consistency to allow brushing onto a surface. Curing to a durable film like standard oils, Pigment Sticks can also be used with Encaustic paints for a variety of effects. Blending sticks are offered in two types and are colorless sticks that can be worked into a Pigment Stick color to increase transparency or blend colors together on the painting. Like with traditional oils, R&F Pigment Sticks should be used on primed surfaces that are oil or acrylic gesso primed to protect the surface from the natural acid in linseed oil. What is the difference between R&F Pigment Sticks and Oil Pastels? Although both are made with pigments, waxes, and oils, they are completely different! Oil pastels typically contain a much higher wax content than an oil stick or bar and are manufactured with a non-drying oil such as mineral oil or castor oil. Works done in Pigment Stick will oxidize (dry) over time like traditional oil paints, whereas oil pastels will always remain tacky and never dry, thus needing the protection of glass to protect the finished work. Explore the versatility and loosely gestural qualities this medium has to offer, with professional quality Pigment Sticks from R&F! Key Features: * Made solely of pigment, pure alkali refined linseed oil, and purified plant and bees waxes * Lipstick-like, soft creamy consistency * Contains no additives, extenders, or substitutes like tube oils * 2 types of Blending sticks for colorless blending * Works on any surface primed for traditional oils * Perfect For: * Use with traditional oils and encaustic paints * Gestural drawing with oils in stick form * Immediacy of paint without the need for brushes or tools * Thinning with solvents and oil mediums See More

Like regular oils, they can be diluted with turpentine and dry to a hard film. These creamy, lightfast sticks may be used for sketching or for producing complete works of art on any traditional oil paint surface. Sennelier Artists’ Oil Sticks allow you to approach oil painting in an entirely new and expressive manner.

Please note that packaging may vary - same great oil painting stick, with a new label! Key Features: * 82 colors available * Series 1: 41 colors (labeled S1) * Series 2: 21 colors (labeled S2) * Series 3: 20 colors (labeled S3) * Made of pure pigment, safflower oil, and mineral wax * Excellent lightfastness ratings * Can be diluted with turpentine * Intermixable with oil paints and mediums Perfect For: * Oil painters * Use for quick sketching * Canvas, panels, boards * Working with texture effects * Painting complete works of art * Traditional and contemporary techniques Sennelier Oil Sticks are a combination of oil paint, with a small amount of the oil substituted with natural mineral wax enabling them to be produced in stick form. These sticks are produced from pure pigments and have the highest possible lightfast and permanence ratings. Oil sticks can also be fully intermixed with conventional oil colors and mediums. A special mineral wax gives the sticks a creamy consistency, which ensures the adhesion of the color on all commercial oil painting surfaces. These Sennelier Extra-Fine Oil Sticks contain selected vegetable oils to guarantee permanent protection against yellowing. Varnish can be applied to your work after 6 months, as with conventional oil paints. Before using these Sennelier Extra-Fine Oil Sticks, remove the fine protective film on the stick. This film will re-form in a few days if the stick is not used. Colors dry in 2-4 days, depending on the thickness of the paint layer and the ambient temperature. See More
