    The safflower refined oil creates a clearer glaze compared with linseed oil and others. I really recommend it.

      I’ll have to check it out, I actively use this product.

    you can also use a vegetable peeler to remove the top layer.

    Is the paper treated with something? Looks like texture.

      It’s a special oil paper, has this texture to it underneath, and it’s sealed on top. No need to do anything to it. Its not going to mold after a few years.

    Can I draw a sharp straight line with these using a ruler?

    • @artsymbol2560
      @artsymbol2560  ปีที่แล้ว

      I haven’t tried, but you can probably use a ruler. The line doesn’t necessarily coming out uniform though and I usually smooth it out after I put it on.

    Thank you. They are great for scratching etc. But true nearly unaffordable.

      They are a lot of fun, I also like Sennelier’s oil stick, just don’t get shiva-too dry.

    Informative video, but I'm worried that you're not wearing gloves. I noticed on the side of the green one that it contains cadmium, and there was a cancer and fertility warning.

    • @artsymbol2560
      @artsymbol2560  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You are correct! Only for the video and format was small. I always use gloves when working with this product on the canvas. And usually I’ll go over acrylic painting to add effects and soften blending.

      @@artsymbol2560 I'm relieved for you. Problem is other people seeing you get it on your hands might not realise that it's toxic and follow your lead. I'm sure I've had a fair few toxic pigments on my hands before I started to realise I shouldn't. I never paint with gloves, but reckon I would with those sticks.

    • @artsymbol2560
      @artsymbol2560  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I added toxic pigments in the description. Also some information from their website.

      @@heathermatthewsart I get that you’re trying to help but it’s aggressive at best. If you think it’s such an issue just go ahead and make a video with you drawing with gloves. Wanting a creator to just make a fresh one for you? You don’t know their schedule.

      @@Sam-xq3xh To be honest I don't understand your response because I was only trying to help. I certainly didn't ask anyone to make a fresh video. I noticed the warning and pointed it out as I was concerned for the artist and her viewers. The artist added toxic pigments in her description and I left it at that.

    Very wasteful if i have to wipe off the dried layer....

    • @artsymbol2560
      @artsymbol2560  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      With this brand, it dries to a very thin film, I still feel guilty when I wipe it off, but in shiva it’s a disaster, you have to cut it off with a knife, lots of waste. I love the idea though, and I usually use them on top of acrylics for blending, creates very soft effects, very quickly and dries faster than oils.

      @@artsymbol2560 I have been toying about this idea of using Oil sticks. I saw it in Japan Art supply shops. (relatively unknown brand, even in Japan, but it is indicated as artist grade).
      It is quite expensive, about 10% more expensive than same volume of oil paint.
      I do not like the idea to waste paint, especially the higher series (3 or 4). But i was told by japanese artist, you could try to dissolve the hardened film with linseed oil, or turpentine....

    • @artsymbol2560
      @artsymbol2560  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I think if you want to use it, you need to be ok with it’s just more expensive, if it’s soft, it’s also going on canvas easily in large quantity. Get a black and white sticks to try, see if you like the feel. Just make sure it’s not sitting on a shelf too long because it’s too precious, the longer it sits, the thicker the film, it will keep drying.
