PIGMENT STICKS
R&F Pigment Sticks® are oil paint manufactured with enough wax to mold the paint into stick form. Only the basic traditional materials are used: natural wax (beeswax & plant wax), linseed oil, and pigment. The result is an oil stick with a lipstick-soft consistency.
Benefits to Working with Pigment Sticks®
• They can be thinned with turpentine or mineral spirits.
• They can be worked with mediums by dipping them into stand oil, linseed oil, alkyd mediums, or resin gels.
• They can be mixed alongside tube oils or used to draw over-dried oil paintings.
• Pigment Sticks® can be manipulated with a paint knife until the paint is a buttery consistency so that it can be brushed or knifed onto the surface. This method can be used to mix colours on the palette or in the painting.
