OIL PASTELS are an extremely versatile
medium. Unlike soft pastels, oil pastels have a binder that
holds them to the painting surface. They are responsive
to a wide variety of techniques from gestural drawing to
painterly methods. Oil pastels have a vegetable oil base
and do not require a primed surface.
