Transparency & Opacity
R&F Pigment Sticks® are high quality oil paint with just enough wax added to maintain a solid stick form. They bring color, texture, and immediacy, allowing you to draw and paint directly or manipulate with a palette knife, brush, or brayer. Pigment Sticks® have none of the additives, extenders, or substitutes that are commonly used in industrial production. We use only beeswax and plant wax, linseed oil, and pigment. Our formulas are complex and our manufacturing is labor-intensive, handmade in small batches, carefully milled and molded.
Materials used in this demo include: Cadmium Green and Sap Green R&F Pigment Sticks® and R&F Blending Medium, Ampersand Gessobord, and Arches Oil Paper. The squeegee was provided by Cold Wax Academy and can be purchased at https://coldwaxacademy.com.
