Creative Heart Monday - Field of Flowers using Oil Paint Sticks

Happy Creative Heart Monday!!

This week I'm giving the R&F Oil Paint Sticks another try.  I made a little painting a couple weeks ago, trying out the oil sticks.  Although, they are very easy to use, it does take a little getting used to.  In this project, I used all of the colors that I have (except for black).  It's kind of repetitive, but I wanted to spend some time getting the feel for them.

Oils are very messy, so if you try these - WEAR GLOVES!!

Here we go............




List of Supplies

11" X 13" Canvas
R&F Oil Paint Sticks


See....I told you it was going to be repetitive.  But, I really like them....I just need to keep practicing.

Here's the little piece that I tried a couple weeks ago.




Have a great Monday and a wonderful week.

New Product - Flowers Painted with Oil Sticks

I tried a brand new product.....and I love it.  This is the first (and only) piece that I've tried so far, but I can see the possibilities.

R & F Oil Sticks.....sticks of oil paint.  These are not at all like crayons or oil pastels.  It's just oil paint in a stick.  I have avoided oil paints like the plague.  They scare me....all of those solvents and other things that you have to mix with it.  These were so easy.

I tried some flowers.  Like I said, I, definitely, need to practice with these.




They create so much texture on the canvas.  Love it!!!  However, from what I understand, they take about a week to dry.

PEACE!!
