Brilliant mix of colors in my 36piece set. Sticks don't wear out too fast. Nice texture. This is rapidly becoming my favorite medium to make art.

I have used these oil pastels with my students for over 20 years and they are consistently the best value for student grade artwork. They blend well and have great coverage. The basic set is all that is needed to make amazing blended colors.

A great quality pastel.

By KDJImagery

Comments about Sakura Cray-Pas Expressionist Oil Pastels:

I am new to oil pastels and have only made about three pieces with them and have found that these pastels are a lot smoother and more easy to work with compared to my initial brand. They blend really well. In my sample of the still life, I didn't have to use turpentine to blend the colors together. The only draw back to them is they didn't seem to blend well with my other brand of pastels. That may be due too the quality of the other brand. I would recommend that if you do plan on blending them with others, that you do a trial piece first. These are great pastels and I would definitely consider them.
