Unlike conventional oil colors, Richeson Shiva Oilstik Oils are dry to the touch in 24 hours! Great for on-the-go painting, they’re perfect for sketching out shape, composition, and color without messy palettes or mixing cups.

They have a rich, creamy consistency and can be spread or blended with a brush, knife, or colorless blender. Formulated with rich pigments, an oil binder, and wax for stability, they’re compatible with traditional oil paints and mediums and can be applied on almost any surface, including canvas, paper, wood, plastic, metal, and fabric. Oilstik colors are also self-sealing — just peel off the film before each use.

Non-toxic and hypo-allergenic, they don’t emit unpleasant odors or fumes, so you can paint virtually anywhere, at any time, and on almost any surface, including canvas, paper, wood, plastic, metal, and fabric.

Regular sized sticks are approximately 37 ml, Mini sized sticks are approximately 12 ml, and Jumbo sized sticks are approximately 130 ml.

__Note__ - New name and packaging, same great formula! Richeson Shiva Paintstik is changing their name to Richeson Shiva Oilstik. During this transition, you may receive a mix of new and old packaging, but be assured the quality has not changed.
