Overview and quickfacts
Oil pastels are a type of painting medium that consists of pigments held together with a binder. They are similar to both crayons and pastels, but have a higher oil content, which gives them a creamy texture and makes them more resistant to smudging. Oil pastels are a versatile medium that can be used for both detailed and expressive work. They can be applied directly to a surface, or blended and layered to create different effects. Oil pastels are a great choice for both beginners and experienced artists alike. They are relatively inexpensive and easy to use, and offer a wide range of possibilities when it comes to creating art.
The art style is also known as: Crayon, grease pencil, chalk
