I think she could paint a masterpiece with rags wrapped around the ends of dowels using cans of house paint. Shel has "the touch" and I love watching her work her magic.
I find that having a package of baby wipes next to me when I work with oil pastels is very handy. Saves having to jump up to go wash your fingers when you want to change colors. I have many different brands of oil pastels because they all have different consistencies and uses. The driest brand is the cheapest, Pentel and the creamiest is the most expensive, Sennelier. Most other brands land somewhere in between those two. My Paul Reubens don't sweat like yours were doing, but then the ones I have don't look like yours either. I'm thinking it may have been too warm where you were keeping them. I try to keep mine far away from any heat sources or sunlight. They are an interesting medium to work with. I use the paper stumps to apply the oil pastel to my pages in all the smaller areas and blend with the paper stumps too. I don't seal my page, just leave the book open for a few days and it soon dries to a hard finish on it's own. Have fun experimenting with this new medium.
I love to see this experiment with oil Pastells, thank you so much to Show us what you did with them 😊, I have seen several videos with this medium and honestly; your video taught me a thousand times more and was more fun to watch 🥰
I love it. I am a Newby to detailed coloring. I colored using pencils while I watched so I can keep practising . Its Awesome to here what your thinking as you color. Thank you for taking time and sharing your coloring skills
Hi shelly I’m new to oil pastels too a few weeks ago I got the 72 set as it was on a deal on Amazon Australia. When I received mine it was really oily too.. it’s summer hear in north Qld I put mine in the fridge as mine were melting in our heat it helped them a bit.. I haven’t used them yet.. I watch Colouring with Maia and she uses oil pastels in her colouring books she uses a product from golden to seal the page if u go to her channel she is really good too.. lovely review hun ❤❤❤😊😊😊😊xxxx
It was crazy to see this because I just started my first coloring page experiment with oil pastels for a background yesterday. I'm not happy with it so far but I'm still working with it so we will see. I would love to see more learn with me videos
Thanks, Shelly! I’ve wondered about oil pastels, and now I have a better idea of how they work. They look tricky, sticky, and a bit messy but fun! “Learn with me” videos would be a great complement to your already awesome channel 😊
These are very beautiful oil pastels! They look just as good as the Sennelier oil pastels! I would definitely test them out in your books before you use them on a page because since they're oil based, over time the oil can soak through to the other side of the page. Or you could just use them on single sided pages. Thank you for sharing this video!😊❤
It is totally normal for them to be very oily. You can use a blending stump, your finger or even wax paper folded in a triangle of sorts. They are best when blended out. You are amazing in everything you try.
Hi Shelly, I was really excited to see what you would come up with when I saw this video! The oil pastels you swatched out are so beautiful and intense. I have used my Mungyo oil pastels with a paint thinner and paper stump in a Hannah Karlzon book. Didn't feel the need to use a fixative. Oil pastels seem easier to use when the background is open. I prefer using them with oil based pencils and filling in any small spaces directly with the pencils. Looking forward to more oil pastels ideas when you try them out 😊
Thank you for this tutorial! I've been eyeing oil pastels, but they seemed a bit difficult to use. Your demonstration changed my mind ❤ I've ordered the Paul Rubens and can't wait to give them a go!
I was thinking that one of those silicone tipped brushes might work well for these! Especially since you can get pointed ones that will help you get in those tiny areas!😊
I think it’s the quality. I used them in high school art class (100 years ago 😊) and they were creamy and lovely to blend, they were true colors. When I heard ppl speak about Prismacolor that’s what I thought of, though they aren’t the same kind of blend (the Prismas are wax base). Anyway, that’s just my opinion on them, happy coloring!
Good video. I have oil pastels but am new to adult colouring and haven’t thought about using them for backgrounds. Regarding the oily ness of the pastels I find the Paul Rubin’s one are a bit like that but it is a bit dependent on climate.
For blending, I've also seen artists use silicon brushes, usually with an oil, linen oil I think. It gives the feeling of oil painting I imagine, but I never tried.

Shelly, your experiments are better than me at my best. I think you could paint the Mona Lisa with Crayola. You are amazing!

This was so interesting and informative! I’d love to see more “Learn With Me” videos. ❤
I love using oil pastels for backgrounds and basing. I have the Paul Ruebens and love them

I am hoping you will share the finished postcard with us all. Such a cute image!
I agree that using the zest or gamsol before blending would have a better finish. Thanks for sharing it! ❤

Thanks for the great video Shel your blending loos lovely . I believe you can use the silicon tools to blend them .
I have the 48 set, unopened in my stash….thanks for giving me inspiration and ideas! ❤
I really enjoyed watching and I am thinking of buying some oil pastels 😉 thanks for sharing
My pleasure! They are a fun medium to play with and learn to use 🤗💗
I also put the oil pastel on a glass palette and pick up with a blending brush. Works really nicely to get light even layer

This does look a lot of fun!! I own oil pastels and I new use them 😅. Thank you for this test 🫶🏻🩷
Love this video! I use gamsol on a cotton bud, soon to try a paintbrush. It saves so much time. ❤❤❤
I was thinking that one of those silicone tipped brushes might work well for these! Especially since you can get pointed ones that will help you get in those tiny areas!😊
I've always been scared of oil pastels! Love your experiment, it turned out really well. So bright! Maybe I'll give them a go one day... 😅

Oh I forgot to mention you can ev3n use a tissue again folded like the 2ax paper
Great video! I just bought as set of oil pastels not too long ago and this was very helpful!

Hi 👋 lovely piece
What liquid did you use to blend the oil pastel with brush ?
I have been wondering if my workable fixative would be useful on top of oil pastels. Now I know! Thanks so much!
You are so welcome! 🤗💗
Beautiful! ❤
Thank you! 😊💗
For blending, I've also seen artists use silicon brushes, usually with an oil, linen oil I think. It gives the feeling of oil painting I imagine, but I never tried.
Interesting! Thanks for sharing 🤗💗
Great video and thanks for sharing Shelly. You may be interested in My Coloring Craze here on TH-cam. I think her work with oil pastels is amazing.
Pablo pencils are olie pencils , hou van try dat
Thank you 🤗💗
Instead of finger blending, use tissue paper. Facial tissue paper or toilet paper works great
Ah thanks for the tip!! I will try that 🤗💗
