Sennelier Oil Sticks are made of artist quality oil paint. The proportion of the oil is substituted with a neutral mineral, resulting in the stick appearance.
These oil sticks contain the highest quality pure pigments ground into vegetable oils selected for their low degree of yellowing over time. Oil sticks offer the same advantages as oil paint. The suppleness of use enables you to experiment with a variety of techniques. Contrary to oil paint, the drying process for the surface colour film is rather quick; usually it takes a day. Before using an oil stick for the very first time, peel off the thin dry skin in order to release the paint. This thin layer will form again after you have used it.
This set contains 6 x 12ml oil sticks and includes the following colours: Titanium Buff, Light Perylene Bordeaux, Manganese Violet, Sepia, Van Dyck Brown, and Warm Grey.
