About this workshop – Unleash your imagination with oil pastels

An oil pastel is a painting and drawing medium formed into a stick which consists of pigment mixed with a binder mixture of non-drying oil and wax.

The history of oil pastels is short and colorful. Like acrylic painting, it’s an invention of the twentieth century. Many good examples can be found in museums of modern art, as it’s one of the new mediums that Pablo Picasso pioneered.
