Talens Wasserlösliche Ölpastelle Set 12#

Water-soluble oil pastels are soft, fatty pastels with intense, vibrant colors. These versatile oil pastels release color very easily and can be used in various ways. You can apply and blend them dry like regular oil pastels, or mix them with water for watercolor effects. This is simple to do by brushing over the drawing or parts of it with a damp brush. You can also moisten the pastels themselves or work on damp paper.

Oil pastels adhere to almost any surface. However, color release is best on a slightly rough and porous surface, such as paper and cardboard. When mixing the oil pastels with water, watercolor paper is the best substrate. This paper has a special coating that reduces warping when water is used.

Every beginning is difficult, especially when it comes to creating your own artwork. Therefore, don't make it too hard on yourself at the start. Let your surroundings inspire you, come up with a still life, or use a photo.

Above all, remember: dare to try everything! Good luck!.
