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,
paintstiks 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. Paintstiks 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. Paintstiks 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. Paintstiks are available in 55 professional colors, 22 iridescent
and 12 student colors.
