Oil pastels are pigment sticks bound with wax and oil, offering a smooth, creamy texture that allows for rich color application. Unlike dry pastels, they are less powdery and can be blended using fingers, tools, or solvents like turpentine. Their vibrant, opaque colors work on various surfaces, including paper, canvas, and wood. Techniques like layering, sgraffito, and solvent blending enhance their versatility. Oil pastels combine the depth of oil painting with the immediacy of drawing, making them a unique and expressive medium notably used by Impressionist and Post-Impressionist artists.
