Wear a mask. Use paper made for pastels. Keep your coffee and snacks away from your work area. Have your board as vertical as possible to let the dust fall off. If you build a lot of layers, spray lightly with workable fixative. Remember that pastels are considered painting, not drawing, and work ingly.
Exploring Alternative Blending Methods Blend your oil pastels with the scumbling method. The scumbling method allows artists to develop texture and value in their works. Use the cross-hatch method to blend oil pastels. Apply the sgraffito method.
The rule of thirds is a guideline commonly used in painting, photography, and design. The rule of thirds means that the subject isn't centered; rather, the main focal point can be to one side or at the top or bottom of the image.
Use a paintbrush to lightly go over the afflicted area and sweep away as many particles as possible. If that isn't enough, rub with a little piece of cotton without pressing down too hard: the color you need to remove will blend into the previous one.
I prefer to use colored construction paper as a base for work with oil pastels. Each class gets a different color (I have 7 groups of 3rd graders for ex.) and the rule is that none of the paper color can show through the final artwork. This results in thick, rich color blends. Hope this helps...
Oil pastels do not dry completely like traditional paints. They remain malleable and can be reworked even after long periods of time. This characteristic can also make oil pastels susceptible to smudging and smearing. To preserve oil pastel artworks, fixing is necessary.
You can get a smooth edge by smearing your finger slowly/gently along the edge. you can get details and edges by scraping with a sharp point. (It's also really fun to layer dark colors over a lighter background color and then "draw" by scratching the dark color off with a sharp tip.) oil pastels are hard to use.
