Which drawing is your favorite? Also Have you used these? Or will you?

Its ok if your sponsored, don't work for Free Bestie! Not only should they have sent you the products to review but also payed you for your time to film and edit this video. You can still give an honest opinion because this is a review after all. Don't let them get free promo and make money off you it says a lot about a company that does this. We love you and your craft!!

Im im a completely different genre of art than you. But I find your color choices and the smoothness and shapes you have in your drawings to be totally study worthy. I am obsessed. Ive used oil pastels before but what youre able to do with them is so impressive.

you really are the only artist i can watch all the way through, i love the way you do EVERYTHING. you've really inspired me to more with my art

thats crazy how well the fixative brought the colours out omg

Sometimes I think bean really knows what he’s doing and professional like and then he refuses to acknowledge the color green again, i love it

I personally believe that someone’s art style really comes from the artists personality. And I think that really shows with you! Your personality is fun and unexpected and so is your art style!

I need a print of all three of these because these are too beautiful and cool to not make prints of! I love the colors you use and I really love your imagination to your art! Its so inspirational to me, my channel, and my style~🖌🎨❤😁

I don’t think I’ll ever get over how much I love your stylization of the face and your use of color. Also, I’m left handed too! Amazing as always

I want you to be aware of the fact that you are the only opinion I trust when it comes to reviews on oil pastels 😂 I'm trying to find a set for my travel sketchbook, and you are the first and only name that comes to mind when it comes to oil pastels. Much love Bean 💙💙💙

I clicked sooooo fast. These were the first oil pastels I ever used and bought. I commented once or twice wanting you to review them because I was undecided. The crumbles were frustrating for me too! but I found if i left the crumbs on for a day or two they seemed to dry out and lose the stickiness so I could brush the piece carefully. With the shiny finish of each piece it just made me more aware of how my fingers were being used so any prints on the piece were done purposefully. Also a q-tip enabled me to smudge in finer detail and some areas honestly I found were best not being smudged AT ALL. I’m AGAIN so glad you reviewed these. The first piece you did was my favourite and the fixident really helped the colours to POP.

Interesting that they could be a dupe for sennelier, might have to try them since that would save me some coin. As always I love your reviews, content, art and personality! ❤

Can i just say i really appreciate this non sponsored, honest review? I have absolutely no problem with artists accepting sponsorships or products, but it is also refreshing to hear some more open opinions :D

Your work is wonderful but your personality is supreme. You make my day. Please post more often.

I just want to say thank you! I've been in a pretty bad place lately and thanks to you , your art , and your personality , I'm starting to come round to a better place You make me smile with your AMAZING personality and the more a person smiles and laughs the harder it is to be sad. and your art inspires me in my own art journey. So again thank you for being you!

I like these, but not for a whole picture. Because yes, these are STICKY, that is exactly what I thought when I first used them, my goodness are they ever sticky. I also find them quite inconsistent. Many of the colors are nice and creamy and opaque, and then you get some inbetween that are transparent and feel like a glue stick. I like them, and I would buy them again for what they cost, I think they are a really good value, but I do not want to use them just on their own. My favorite oil pastels are Mungyo Soft and Neopastel, which I find very similar to eachother. I like that smooth even type of creaminess. This sticky thing about the Paul Rubens does make things difficult for me. And man, I am glad that someone else has finally mentioned it, because with all these positive reviews, I was feeling like I am the only one who finds that an issue. I like to start out with a harder pastel and then take the Paul Rubens to add the final layer, I think that works really great, but I have not enjoyed doing the full work with the Paul Rubens.

I really like that last drawing! the blue highlight you put in the underneath of people's noses in your drawings is so satisfying and makes the faces really "pop" to me

Genuinely glad I caught this. I've got watercolors from Paul Rubens and I definitely know the feeling of having to just play with them and get used to them. I love them though and I've been curious about oil pastels after getting a Faber Castell set in an art box. Im glad to hear basically the same thing that I heard about their watercolors: mid-ish quality at a good price. Putting these on my amazon wish list right now. P.s. my fave was the flat top boy.

Thanks for reviewing these, it’s good to know about the inconsistency with the texture issue. But, WOW these two drawings are wonderful!! So gorgeous when you added the texture of the scratchy-scratch on the last one. (Bummed it was a frustrating process because of the stickiness) Personally, I 😍love😍 the Chi-Chi hair inspo close up piece, the character is rather androgynous and I love the composition of the figure being partially cropped. Gorgeous work as usual. 💗

So fascinating to me that people actually make art with oil pastels. Not many people out there using oil pastels.... But your art is incredible!

I love seeing both your background art and the art you make for videos. Just your whole vibe is so comforting and encouraging. (I got back into my weird little sculptures after watching one of your shorts; you're really inspiring.)

Thank you! I've always loved pastels and just getting back into art as an outlet period. Thank you for reviewing all these different pastels so I can pick what's best for me!!! 💖

I love your reviews because you have so much personality and energy, you just put everyone in a good mood slay king

Absolutely love the second portrait! As to recommendations of pastels to check out - van Gogh oil pastels! They are pretty cheap I think and maybe a bit less creamy but they are fun to use (their white seems to be better for blending because it is not that opaque tho)

Mr. and or Mizz. Bean i think this has been your best video yet. I think the duration was good and the audio

This was an EXCELLENT review. You gave all the pros and cons. I like creamy but with sticky crumbles the side of my hand will mush them around. Still I might try them. I always learn so much from you- I like that you pointed out the values were less dark when you blended- but it looked a lot better with the fixative. Anyway, you’re truly the best and love watching you do op. I would watch a whole op painting in real time without skipped parts or speeded up if you posed that.

Gurl your energy and presence is EVERYTHING! you inspire me to do art!

I'm so excited to see you with oil pastels again 🤗😍

That’s flattop drawing of yours made me wanna jump outta my braids lol 🤣 Love you and the art

AND I love your style!!! The colors and blending are really beautiful and I enjoy the exaggerated features of your subjects very much. I like the scratching away of material too! So glad I found your channel! 💜🧡

I love the "To Wong Foo" reference picture. I think your two finished paintings turned out fabulously.

I’ve been waiting for a post so yay

I'm on my second box of the Paul Rueben oil pastels. I started with Sennelier but I'm a new artist and Sennelier is really pricey. I love Sennelier bc they're like lipstick and the colors are amazing. I'm a big fan of the uber soft oil pastels. I agree Paul Rueben OP's are a decent Sennelier knock-off which is why I use them. I love the blendability of PR. And I do love the colors, however you're right, there is some inconsistencies with creaminess and they do tend to be a little shiney. Neither of those things stop me from using them.

As a non professional it’s so interesting to see the pieces that “don’t work out” because every time you put pen to paper it just blows my mind how talented you are. But I trust your expertise

I hope to one day be an artist like you! Also I love your reviews💙💙💙

I love the flattop so much.. it's just so beautiful, I paused and just looked at it for like 5 minutes. Thanks for the video!

if you want creamier blues (because i had the problem in which the blues didn’t apply very opaque and soft) roll them in ur hand and heat them up. it will look more like the others if that texture is what ur going for. for some reason the blues just need to be heated

i'm binging your content right now, and i feel so inspired with your creativity. your warm and energetic vibe is infectious too!!!

The emotional build-up and the expressions in general got me entertained. We love an honest review, I like them both! I'm anticipating if you'll gonna be using them next time, I'm invested in your reaction and the birth of drama.

I came here for the art collab, I stayed for the skills. Man, you have some talent! Love your work!

Honestly I’d love to see videos of just you making whatever art you want and showing the process sped up to a reasonable length.

Both drawings are bomb, but I gotta go with the second one as well. The flat top with the funky scratches just looks so good! I might not be someone requesting these reviews, since I don't work in oil pastels myself, but I sure do love them :)

All 5 people are popping off

I really enjoy these. Having started with such firm and un-blendable pastels, the Paul Rubens have been exactly what I wanted.

one thing that was very illuminating for me was that you don't like all of your drawings and that you started over. every time I make mistakes or something that is just meh, I get so discouraged. to know that even professional artist do this is really inspiring. yeah, "failure" can be inspirational. thank you for all you do. love your content.

I NEED a print of that portrait of the girl (the 90s-ish one) I hope you release one!! and make it biiiiiiiig

I love your videos and reviews! Your happy personality radiates, thank you. I'm just starting out with oil pastels - currently have the Sennelier 48, waiting for my Munguyo 48 and also have several less expensive ones from Daiso and some VanGogh.

I just wanna say thank you again for being an absolute ray of sunshine! I LOVE watching your videos, and I look forward to each and every one of them. They're an absolute joy!

I can’t even lie this is most definitely one of my favorites!!

Im definitely stopping work to watch this

I absolutely adore all of your videos! Also if you’re looking for recommendations for future videos- I’d love to see you try like an a strictly black and white oil pastel drawing or a monochromatic portrait with just various shades of purples or blues for example. I absolutely adore all of your art and your art is so inspirational to me with my art :’)

I so love watching you make your act

OMG you made me scare my cats with an outburst of a hag cackle!🤣 "I was so excited I put on lotion, it might not look like it...shut up!"👏🤣😂 The world needs your energy, your humor.....🥰 New to your channel and binging your videos right now, what is your favorite paper and pastels? I'm in such a rut, a road block....argh!!!! Thank you for sharing yourself♥️

I absolutely love the second drawing, especially the colors🥰

gosh, your videos always put me in a such good mood, and i love your art deeply

Thank you for posting. It's so nice to see someone else work with these oil pastel. I personally adore this set and recommend them to folks. I really adore how the second face came out truly. :) Best wishes. 💛

I desperately want them on my walls. You are so talented!

I was just re-watching other review videos wondering when the next one would come, and now it's here! Hooray!

Your art drawing and pastel colouring is fantastic♥️👏👏👏Bit nervous about using Oil Pastels.Thanks for demo.

I love both drawings, the colors and facial expressions are amazing, and the background of flat top boy/ scratchy scratches really accentuate it💕🔥 Paul Rubens are on my wishlist; want them even more after seeing this video!

Thanks you, mine are due today so very useful. As a beginner you are my oil pastel king, loving all your videos, great help. Thank you.

This is really helping me choose which brand to use. You are so talented and adorable!

every video i am more shocked at how amazing you are, your art is incredible, congrats

Coming back to this review, thanks, I was thinking about the Paul Ruben, but you made up my mind, thanks

Omg I just bought those. 😱😱😱 I will have to re-watch a play with them…… with you. 🤗💕

My word. First time watching your channel. I’m obsessed with your style.

I love seeing your techniques and style progress and grow. 🥰 When that second check popped! Damn!!

I just found you and Wow! You're so funny and you articulate the characteristics of your media so well. I love your art style too. I like the flat-top painting the best because of the scratching. I have never seen this technique before. It really adds to the overall feel of the painting. You did such a nice review. One thing I'd like to see you try is the pallet knife technique. I liked and subscribed so I can see more of your inspitational work. Love 😘

Your skin looks amazing.

THANK YOU for keeping the long format, love. We appreciate you💜 You never fail to brighten my day!

LIVING for your review and watching you work! a new subscriber and thrilled about it! 🙋🏽‍♀💜

I LOVE THE SCRATCHY SCRATCH😝!!!!!!!! Beautiful artwork as always,keep up the amazing work❤️❤️❤️❤️

Always love your content! You’ve inspired me so much over the past two years. Your videos introduced me to oil pastels and I have loved them since. Plus you’re left handed which has truly been helpful to me as I learn more about Art. I have used a few different oil pastels including the mungyo and crayola, but my affordable go to oil pastel is from hobby lobby. The Master’s Touch Premium Soft Oil Pastels from hobby lobby are pretty decent and I would love it if you tried them out! Also, added the Paul Rubens to my Amazon cart 😂 Again thank you for sharing your passion, creativity, and talent with me and the rest of this weird world! Stay Awesome!!! 🤩🥰

How have I not been recommended this channel earlier, I love you art style smm

Oil pastels are my favorite medium. I use Paul Rubens too. I just received the Morandi set in the mail yesterday. I have been waiting for YOU to review them. I have pastel storage but still have the lovely boxes in my closet.

You sold me on using oil pastel, I wasn't keen on buying some but now I do want to try them! Thanks for your honest review!!!

I like the "puzzle".... He/she got this look... and a smile.... 😉 Gooooooood work! 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍 😍

Finally! I found another Left Handed pastel artist! I am retraining myself to use my left hand, since my right isn't working right anymore, so I search for leftys that I enjoy watching and whose art is truly inspiring! Thanks, Teresa

I am SO glad I found your channel. Your energy and excitement are contagious ❤😊

I used them a few days ago to make a litttle portrait mixed with some cray pas. Pretty nice results 👍🏼

ok BUT I LOVEEEE THE END RESULT U KILLIN IT UGHHH

Very thorough review yes! I love the flat top way more! 🥰🥰🥰

I don't know if you like arts and crafts, but I love the videos where you bring you artistic style to craft type things. I enjoy seeing you tackle different media. I love your Caroline doll , the Halloween reef , and that time you made that "Little shop of horrors " plant. All great videos. Oh yeah, that rug was also pretty cool.

You are so warm and funny, and wow, can you draw! I love watching your content! 😊👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I can't help but try out my new pastels by putting them on my hands now thanks to you lol. Love your work man

HI out there. Another fun video to explore your reviews and talent. I'm always impressed by your use of wicked skin tone rhythms. I love both portraits, so I dunno which one I like more! Aahhhhh! Take care out there in this crazy existence. TTFN.

This is my first time enjoying your content and I subscribed instantly. You. Are. Hillllaaaarious! Firstly you are super talented! Secondly that flat top painting was absolutely beautiful! It was so expressive and proud and I was fully entranced by the scratchy scratchy you did all over it. I love your use of every colour. You use so much of your heart in your art and it shows! I don't know your name or what cms stands for, sorry but I'm old hun, but I really love your art and I think you are totally brilliant. God bless you hun.

Excellent review! Thanks so much!

THAT SECOND PIECE IS GORGEOUS

Oh my god! Those drawings!! Glad you reviewed these cause that might be my next brand to try now

omg Chi Chi Rodriguez, YES!!! 😍 Love this video and your work is absolutely beautiful. Thank you for blessing the world with your art, sir.

It's really a treat to watch you, thank you

So great , love your honesty.

Im really diggin Mr.Scratchy Scratch Erasey Racer Head. Your Imagination is so Colorful and awesome! Thank you for all the cool videos. You inspire me to become a better artist. OH, also I have never worked with Pastels that much Im mostly into pencil charcol and graphite art. 🖍✏🖌🎨🖼❣❣

I love how colorful she came out with that darker hair. Man I can watch you work all day.

I just found your channel yesterday but oh my god i am loving your energy!

I am glad to have happened across this review. It is as honest as it gets IMO and it covers a lot of areas that were of interest to me. After seeing the review, however, I believe mungyo and sennelier will stay as my favorites.

ok but the first drawing is giving the Birth of Venus vibes and as an art history nerd I REALLY LOVE THAT

The painting of boy hit me harder. It's my favourite. Awesome content please make more. :D

Question: have ever tried the pan pastels? I know they’re a lot different than oil pastels but was wondering if you would ever consider trying them 😁 (also, I have not tried them either lol)
