I've used their other version, and these new ones look even better! The shape definitely looks more like Sennelier. Love your drawings (paintings?). The summer beach houses are so vibrant and happy, and the lion looks really awesome! ❤ Oil pastels will eventually dry, but it does take a few weeks.

Very nice work in this video. Oil pastels really are a lot of fun, aren't they? I have this same set of Paul Rubens Haiya oil pastels (I believe it is pronounced something like "high-ya") and the Paul Rubens Seascape set of 72. Got both of them from Amazon very recently. My experience was that the Haiyas popped up pretty frequently for me. Maybe you were searching longer ago when they were even newer and perhaps weren't very well-known? I haven't used them very much yet, so I don't have too much experience with them. But I also have Caran d'Ache Neopastels, Mungyo Gallery, and Sennelier oil pastels in my arsenal, and I've been using these for years. They all work well together, and I'm hoping the Paul Rubens will, too. It has been my experience that in general, oil pastels will never completely dry out. They will dry some, but never completely, and how much they dry and how quickly varies from brand to brand. They don't really behave the same way as oil paint in this regard, and I think the main reason for this is that the oils used in oil pastels are different than those used in oil paints. I think oil paints use a vegetable-based oil like linseed oil, where oil pastels typically use a mineral oil. Plus, oil pastels have some wax and other binders mixed in with the pigments. As for fixative, Sennelier makes a really good oil pastel fixative for $18 or $19. I have also used Spectrafix on oil pastels with good results. Anyway, I hope this info is helpful and thanks for the fine video!

Hey have you tried the haiya? Can you tell me how it feels compared to mungyo and sennelier? Thanks
@atvalleau 11 ай бұрын
@@yuniaaniza5120 Yes, I have both the Haiya 48 and 72 set of oil pastels. I really like them, too. In my opinion, the Hayas are softer than the Mungyo line and maybe just a tad bit harder than Senneliers. Overall, I think the Haiyas are very comparable to Senneliers, but I am honestly not sure how the Haiyas compare with Senneliers on lightfastness. I suspect that the Haiyas are reasonably lightfast, but I don't what method the Paul Rubens manafacturer used to determine their lightfast ratings. On the other hand, I'm completely confident in Sennelier's ratings.
@yuniaaniza5120 11 ай бұрын
@@atvalleau hi, I seriously appreciate your comment🙏🏻 I'm still new to this oil painting stuff and I bought the wrong set of pastels at first, then I bought the mungyo 12 too. The mungyo is good, I understand the hype towards it, but I'm curious with haiya since many told it's a sennelier dupe. I'm okay with the fact if haiyas are not light-fast because I'm still at my trying stage, and considering the price I think I'll go with haiya before trying out the senneliers. Hope you're having a good day☺️

Love, love your lion. Will admit as someone who had to be treated for heavy metals, I'm more comfortable seeing people blends paints with a stomp or wearing gloves. I have some inexpensive nonlaytex gloves that fit securely so work well. I have seen an artist drag a stomp on the bottom of an oil pastel and use that for fine details. Thank you for taking us along your art journey.

They look similar to the Sennelier Artist Oil Pastels which are very soft and creamy too. I like them a lot, more than the harder versions I already worked with at school. You can also try using silicone modeling tools to move the colours on your surface. With them you can blend the colours nicely, when working on details. This should work if they are like the Sennelier ones. By the way I often sea that oil and soft pastel artists alike say that they are painting and not drawing. 😉

I finally watched Lindsay's video today and I saw she was using a silicone tool. Brilliant! That would have worked so much better than the blending stump. Next time! These were fun!

I LOVE the Lion!! I guess, when using these, it's best to be loose and expressive. I love how they blend!

I have their old ones and really enjoy them, but I've only used the kids' quality when I was in elementary school, so I'm used to more of a crayon type ordeal. These look even more soft than their other formulation. I've only done a few "paintings" and I started taping them down on boards that are about an inch bigger on all sides to I can pick it up and move it etc. without messing my picture up. I feel like they get used up quickly though because theyre quite soft and stinks because its not like you can buy these open stock, i think that's the only draw back with these type of company pastels. Your painting turned out beautifully! Anyway, thanks for sharing these with us. Have a great day

I love the idea of taping it to a board so you can move it more easily. Thank you, Danielle! These were dreamy to work with but you're right; I think they'll get used up quickly. Hopefully they'll have open stock available in the future.

Miranda! If I didn’t know you by your videos and had this on mute, I wouldn’t know you’d never used them by your results. That’s all your experience showing up in these paintings 🤗 Loved that you dove right in and went from the cute beach huts to the canvas. Besides all that my fav is when you commented on your sand waves “because I say so!” Perfecto! 👏 Just before finding your video I impulsively bought the 72 set…I wanna play set that doesn’t feel so sennelier $ precious. Now, I’m even more excited to get these onto a canvas panel. Oh and oil pastels can go atop acrylic & oil, but not under…sorta like the “Fat over Lean” Oil painting mantra. Can also go easily over watercolor underpainting & watercolor over OP as resist…just be sure to use your non-favorite, maybe oil pastel only watercolor brush as cleaning will be a bit more aggressive. Don’t want oils in our watercolor pans. Thanks Miranda for another great video 👋💜👋

Hiii! I haven't been able to keep up with all the videos, but I'm so excited to see this one. I found these "randomly" on Amazon the other day and just received the 60 set this afternoon. sooooo creamy! People say they are Sennelier dupes. I tried them versus other oil pastels I had and they are so much better. You can use them with a palette knife. Funny thing, I just picked up three Shiva oil sticks because my local store is discontinuing them. But they smell soooo much (not the sticks themselves, but the papers I used them on....) I thought they'd be like a jumbo oil pastel, but, boy they really smell of linseed. Somehow I ended up ordering the RF sample sticks in the aftermath LOL. I am very glad you're being super picky now about who you say yes to!!! But Rubens, HECK YES. I saw they do have the large oil sticks -- just in white and black -- they are actually labeled oil paint. I wonder if they are the same formula as the small kind? I also saw they have an interesting large set of shimmery gansai paints. Also soft pastels, hand rolled! Which are also supposed to be Sennelier dupes. (I know you hate soft pastels, but I've been enjoying them lately. Not so much the mess...) I *also* loved the saying on the cover, about letting more people enjoy Chinese colors! And that they all show the pigment colors.
@margaretspringer9197 Жыл бұрын
The R&F and the Shivas are oil sticks, not oil pastels -- just linseed oil and pigment (like oil paint), whereas the oil pastels are mineral oil, wax, and pigment. The oil sticks do dry, like oil paint, while the oil pastels never completely dry, just harden to a degree, though as others have mentioned, they can be sprayed with fixative and, I think, varnished.
