Learn Oil Pastels
Ready to learn oil pastels? Brilliant greens, blues, yellows and reds--oil pastels have a wide range of beautiful colors to work with. Compared with traditional pastels, which are harder and have a chalk-like consistency, oil pastels are soft, oily and are a more "painterly" medium.

Here, through six fun, easy and rewarding lessons, you will become acquainted with the basic oil pastel techniques and learn to work with vibrant colors, as well as subdued and softly blended color passages of light and shadow.
