The Mungyo Gallery Artists' Oil Pastel Set of 36 is a professional-grade, high-pigment drawing collection designed for artists, students, and illustrative designers. Formulated with the finest refined pigments and a smooth wax-oil binder, these standard-format sticks ($70\text{mm} \times 11\text{mm}$) deliver a creamy, lipstick-like consistency. Packaged in a protective cardboard box with individual foam inserts, this foundational 36-piece layout provides a highly blendable palette that covers warm and cool primaries, complex earth pigments, and essential blending tones.
Key Features:
-
Creamy, Smooth Consistency: Glides effortlessly onto paper without stuttering or scratching, making it easy to block in large areas of solid colour or lay down delicate multi-layered strokes.
-
Professional Lightfast Pigments: Crafted using highly concentrated, high-grade pigments that offer brilliant colour saturation and excellent fade resistance over time.
-
Exceptional Blendability: Formulated for high structural fluidity. The pastels blend smoothly using your fingers, a paper stump (tortillon), or an art cloth to create clean, seamless gradients with zero muddying.
-
Solvent-Reactive Medium: Fully reactive to mineral spirits, turpentine, or linseed oil. Brushing a light wash of solvent over your sketches transforms your marks into smooth, oil-paint-like glazes.
-
Broad Surface tooth Compatibility: Designed to adhere beautifully to varied materials including heavyweight pastel paper, sketchbooks, canvas, cardboard, board, and primed wood panels.
