R&F Handmade Paints are experts when it comes to combining the finest pigments with the highest quality raw materials to create paints that are a true luxury. These new pigment stick sets are no exception! These highly pigmented colors are made in small batches, blending finely-milled pigments with natural wax and linseed oil to create an accessible oil paint in stick form. Their lipstick-like, creamy consistency flows smoothly, and R&F Pigment Sticks can be used for spontaneous sketching, for plein air painting and travel, and can be combined with traditional oil paints, mediums, and solvents for finished pieces. Curing to a durable film like standard oils, Pigment Sticks are a true artists' medium — paint directly with the stick, with no barrier between your ideas and your art!
