Oil pastels are tools to achieve what we dream of doing.
Just scratching the surface of what’s possible with sgraffito drawings using oil pastels.

You have to play around with oil pastels and see if they fit you.
Oil sticks are like oil painting, but free, wild and unpredictable. You always start from scratch. There is no need to succeed at the very first attempt at oil-pasteling your life. Just using both sgraffito drawings and oil pastels is not interdisciplinarity.

Racoon Waxoil explores the tactile nature and materiality of painting with vibrant and textured pastel impasto.
