When you're ready to start your next oil painting, pick up Shiva pianistic

artist colors instead of a brush. Manufactured in the United States, painting

are ideal for sketching and outlining, Shiva pianistic artist colors are

refined linseed oil blended with a quality pigment and solidified into a

convenient stick form. Painting can be spread or blended and used in

conjunction with conventional oil paint. There are no unpleasant odors or

fumes, so you can virtually paint anywhere, at any time, on almost any surface

from paper to panel to fabric. Painting are self-sealing. that is, they form

a protective film so the color won't rub off or dry out. Yet they always stay

moist and fresh, providing an indefinite shelf life because they reseal in 24

hours. This film is easily removed by peeling it away with a paper towel, or

rubbing it off gently. It can also be removed by carefully paring it with a

knife (it can be sharpened to a point in this matter). when the stick has

begun to wear to the edge of the sleeve, simply loosen the sleeve from the oil

stick at the seam, open the sleeve and push the stick forward. Press the

sleeve around the oil stick again and repeat the peeling process as needed.

Remember that Shiva pianistic artist colors are oil color, the same as tube

oils, so all the same techniques, mediums and surfaces can be used including

Varnishes. Painting are available in 55 professional colors, 22 iridescent and

12 student colors.
