SAKURA Cray Pas Expressionist Oil Pastels Assorted Colours (Pack of 50)

Highest quality pastels at good price. Lasts longer than other plus colour very rich

Great pastels for artists

I've previously owned the 25 set, so know that these are good student oil pastels, but I wanted a more extensive colour range. I'm over-joyed with the colours in the 50 set: not only do you get 2 extender pastels, but the set contains some great colours for painting cats: lots of natural earth tones, browns, creams, and oranges (for ginger cats); there are lots of surprises in the other colours too: olive greens and gorgeous blues (great for blue kitten eyes), and some extra reds. If you need a good student set at the top end of the range (these don't quite make it into the expensive 'artist' category) I recommend these, especially for wildlife and landscapes.

I bought these to use for underpainting with my more expensive oil pastels. They work very well and I thought they were very good for the money

I bought these as they are what is used by the art class I’m attending. I am just a beginner but they’re easy to use, feel nice, blend well and the colours are great. The picture is the very first oil pastel work I’ve done.

These are really nice quality they blend, overlay lend themselves to finally engaging with some artwork. Def recommend. Used with more direct force they work well also.

Very creamy and a lot easier to blend than the other oil pastels I have. Also a lovely colour assortment. They arrived earlier than expected.

Prompt delivery which affects work expectations, and means continuity in producivity and employer satisfaction.

These oil pastels work well. They are creamy, they are easy to blend, and the colors are bright.

Estos colores de Sakura, que aparecen como "Expresionistas" no son pasteles al óleo, son simples ceras, como lo conocemos en España, no llevan aceite de linaza, deben estar tratadas con parafina. Lo explico poque observo que en muchas marcas aparecen también con la misma denominación y son simples crayolas o ceras. Los tonos de los colores son variados, pero en cuanto a calidad dejan que desear, tenemos las ceras Manley españolas, que son fabulosas y las hay de 50 colores y mucho más económicas. La gran mayoría de las pinturas que aparecen como pasteles al óleo, incluidas las Faber Castell, que también las he comprado son ceras y por tanto bastante caras. Estoy pendiente de recibir las de Sennelier, por lo cual no puedo opinar aún, pero quizás sean las únicas que son al óleo y posiblemente las de Windsor & Newton.

Es handelt sich um sehr schöne Stifte für ausdrucksstarke Bilder. Das Produkt kam schnell und genau wie abgebildet an. Vielen Dank.

As a professional Artists, these Cray-Pas Expressionist pastels are a bit firm but easy to blend. They have excellent pigment quality and are light fast. I would but them between Sennelier being the Softest Oil pastel then in the middle is Cray -Pas Expressionist, along with Mungyo and Holbein then Cray- Pas Specialists being the hardest. These Cray-Pas can be bought in sets and found as well as singles to purchase, I use them as final layers or as the whole painting, their cost is excellent to make an every day product to use in your art work.
