User questions & answers

Question:	What colors are included? I'm trying to decide on the 25 vs 50 set. Thanks
Answer:	I think they come in red.
Question:	Are these nontoxic
Answer:	All I had to do after I painted the fabric was iron it and it makes it permanent I have not wash it yet I think that’s all you have to do I don’t know if any spray sorry
Question:	how washable are these? hands, clothing, surfaces? appropriate for smaller children
Answer:	Only one in the package. Don't know what bpa is unless it is part of the product number (SKU).
Question:	I am a complete newbie to any arts, crafts, hobbies or anything like this so I have to ask a stupid question.. are they able to be blended with water
Answer:	Possibly, but to be safe I would get a sample jersey/shirt to work with so you can understand the bleed and smear effects on the material. I would say "probably" but I don't know what material you're referring to and that is definitely a large piece of the puzzle.

User questions & answers

Question:	Are there actually 64 different colors in this set? looking at the reference photos it appears that there may be quite a few "doubles". thanks
Answer:	Almost certainly yes. They are much more pigmented than standard chalk, so they could potentially stain or require wet cleaning if left too long. They are also much softer than standard chalk and they'll break easily, so if you're considering using them for everyday use, you might be frustrated.
Question:	I need pastels with only powder and no oil. Being a newbie I want to make sure these are the pastels i'm looking for
Answer:	No. In fact a vinyl eraser gets rid of pastels easily
Question:	how do you color small areas with these square tips
Answer:	It is not oily
Question:	Are these chalk pastels or do they have oil
Answer:	I started my poly gel company with chalk I’m about to try this but it should sork

User questions & answers

Question:	Do these have a petroleum odor? Allergic to petroleum
Answer:	I don't own this particular set of pastels.
Question:	Do these smell of petroleum
Answer:	Hi! Soft pastels are quite different from pastel chalk. Chalk has only a fraction of the pigment of soft pastels and is comprised of a lot of binder, only a small amount of pigment. I'm guessing by "compressed" you mean hard pastels, which are much harder to break and require more pressure to leave a mark on the surface. Typically, one would sketch their painting with a hard pastel, or use it for finer details. Half-soft pastel brands are used for blocking in color after you have completed the drawing. Finally, after applying several thin layers of the half-soft pastels, you would use the soft pastels to finish the painting. The hard pastels are used for drawing, the half-soft are used to build up layers of colors, the soft pastels are used for the final layer of color. A good hard pastel is Conte, a good half-soft brand is Rembrandt or Unison and a good soft pastel is Sennelier, Ferrario, or Holbein. Mungyo brand for artists is a good half-soft brand.

Oil pastels techniques

• 1. Flat painting
• An oil pastel spreads specific color blocks evenly on the paper. You can first outline the area lines to avoid painting the edges.
• 2. Color mixing
• Use two or more color oil paint sticks to mix colors, mixing colors will make the picture richer, hazy and soft. You can use your fingers or scraper to rub the mixed part or use white oil pastel to make the transition, which will make the picture more natural.
• 3. Stippling
• Point color refers to the arrangement of dots or short lines of different colors together. Pointing can be used to express colorful and dynamic effects, such as flowers, feathers, grass, etc. In the order of color stippling, follow the principle of light color first and dark color later.
• 4. Overlay
• Overlapping refers to overlaying another layer of color on an already painted layer of color. The performance characteristic is that it is not pure color mixing or covering, but one color reveals another color to achieve the effect of rich layers. The combination of overlapping colors should also follow the principle that the same or similar colors can be mixed and avoid contrasting colors.

There are so many other techniques you can try it on, such as heavy pressure blending, light pressure blending, strokes, scumbling, sgraffito of paper, highlight with white, shadow with black, etc.
