SENNELIER Oil Pastel 36 Plein Air Wood Box

These pastels are lipstick for your art. No, seriously. Each one is so smooth that when I pick them up with my finger, a little bit of colorful pastel oil always ends up left behind, on my skin. Now, I'm no Picasso (I'm maybe just a smudge better than a kindergardener in art class), but I've picked up pastels as of late, and this set is mighty fine. A great product, even at this high price point.

I won second place in a juried art show using these.

Very soft, creamy and sticky but I've never seen beautiful colors until I used this one. Very vivid. And very gliding but will easily use up. I love this product

I only checked 2 stars for beginners as this is a super soft pastel. They will literally start to soften and almost melt if it is in your fingers and you create a lot of friction over time. I LOVE this about them though!

These are the best oil pastels I have tried. They are smooth and creamy and blendable with your fingers.

It's the softest artist grade oil pastel available today. Their texture is literally like painting with lipstick, very creamy and easy to blend. Very rich pigment, opacity, and excellent light fastness. The box it comes with is a sturdy wooden box with a thick slotted foam holder and a thick foam pad over that. Great to travel with, though they soften easily in the heat so be wary of that.

So fun to use! I’m in love.

I absolutely love these pastels. I have bought the 24 color landscape set and recently bought this one. I love the box and it is great for travel as it really protects your pastels. Sennelier oil pastels are wonderful - the color is great and the texture even better. I am officially an addict.
