Discover the rich, creamy texture of oil pastels in the idea Studio this week! Though they may look like crayons, oil pastels are smooth and blendable, allowing you to layer and mix colors to create bright, painterly effects. Explore our “how to draw” guides and artist reference books for inspiration as you experiment with soft smudges, bold lines and colorful blends. See how these unique materials can bring your drawings to life in exciting new ways. When you’re finished, take your artwork home or add it to our community display. All ages are welcome to create and explore!
