\"Little<\/a>I have a new obsession: R and F Oil Pigment Sticks<\/em><\/strong><\/a>. I’ve been experimenting with them for several months, mostly creating little abstract landscapes, but recently I decided to take the plunge and start using them on bigger canvases. But back to the smalls for this post. I’ve used other brands of oil sticks, but nothing, NOTHING, compares to R and F for pigment load, creaminess, and application luciousness (I don’t even think that is a word!). The sticks are made from natural wax, linseed oil, and pigment. You can paint with them as is, you can use a palette knife, you can even mix colors on a palette and apply with a brush. Versatile and beautiful, that’s what they are.<\/p>\n

Here’s a sampling from a series I’ve been working on. All of these are 3×3, 4×4, or 5×5 inches.<\/p>\n
