Description

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.

I love art supplies and I am always looking for something ...
Review Image by Chelsea A.
I AM NOT AN ARTIST! This is a layman's review, lol. I mostly work with adding images to vintage clothing with my own stencils for my store. I love art supplies and I am always looking for something unique to play with. I used these paints on a vintage "wife" style cotton tank top with a hand cut stencil. I allowed the ink to dry for a day and then heat set it with a low iron and a sheet of paper towel to protect- the shirt came out beautifully. I also used this paint on a vintage leather jacket- it took several days to set, maybe I used too thick of an application, but it was worth the wait!!I applied the paint to both items with an inexpensive short bristle stencil brush, and used the colors straight- not custom mixed. I found the paint easy to work with. I did watch some videos on youtube about the paint, and it was suggested that not load my brush directly over my piece as it can shed a bit onto your work. I used a sturdy paper plate as a palette. My customer says the shirt has not bled, faded or otherwise deteriorated since purchase last summer. Rich, opaque colors. Wonderful product to have on hand for someone who doesn't paint frequently as they won't dry out like other paints. ... show more

Shiva Painstiks all the way
I had a few Shiva Painstiks at home that I purchased on clearance at a local art supply store, but they sat unused because I didn't know how to use them. I was lucky enough to take a class in them at a local quilting show, and wow are these awesome. The colors are so vibrant and go on smooth and easy depending on the method in which they are applied. I prefer the use of a short bristled stiff stencil brush. And can get great designs when you use the paintstiks in combination with rubbing plates. The professional colors are more expensive than the student version, but worth the price when you see the results. ... show more

Shiva Oil Paintstiks
Quality professional paintsticks. I purchased both the standard colors & the iridescent colors. Amazon price is very competitive. The "paintstik is covered with a slight film that needs to be removed before use. You can remove it with a sharp knife or pinch & twist the stick in a paper towel. The pinch & twist method didnt work well for me as a piece of the stick broke of and cracked the stick. Since the product is expensive, I would recommend using a knife to remove the film. You need a good workplace to spread out your fabric & paint so you can use your tools effectively. Since this is oil paint you want to work in an area that provides easy clean & accidental stains. This is a much cleaner method to use oils & this product can be used with oil paint mediums. So far I used Martha Stewart sponge daubers, stiff stencil brushes by Cedar Canyon and Tim Holtz rounded sponge dabbees also used for ink. The tools you use can very based on the type of fabric you use. So far I have painted on silk, cotton, and heavy canvas cotton with really good results. Blending is fun especially on silk. I would recommend this product for textile artists and mixed media artists. ... show more

Love them!
I love these paint sticks! Like drawing with crayons and finger painting at the same time - guess it makes me feel like a kid again! And what a great way to paint with oils! No waiting days/weeks for them to dry - paintings are dry the next day, so you can continue working on them. Plan to get more - highly recommend! ... show more

Paint Sticks are Fun!
You can be expressive and gestural with these paint sticks without getting overly messy. Working in oils is more traditional and grounded and rich.

Both types blend nicely using my gloved hands
Review Image by Amazon Customer
I recently added Shiva Oil Paintsticks to my R&F collection as shown in the collage. I am now liberated from pastel painting - no more dust. I can sketch as much as I want and still have permanent paintings for framing or even for cutting up for collage. I found that the Shiva paint sticks dry within a day compared to several days for R&F. But, I usually combine both types to get a full range of colors. Both types blend nicely using my gloved hands. Thanks to Amazon for stocking these wonderful art supplies and for helpful suggestions from reviewers. ... show more

This is Ho Hum....
I didn't like these paintsticks. I was trying to get a monotype by using them but I didn't have the blender which might have helped. I was able to get a moderately OK print the first time, and nothing the second time. The sticks themselves were hard to manage, and I am fussy and not a messy painter and don't like to take off the dried paint each time you use them. I may try them on paper or canvas next time and see if they are easier to use. It would be interesting to see if they would work for a plein air quickie...it might be nice not to have to tote all the gear. ... show more

Easy to use--like the result
I purchased these for a class on Shiva painting that my quilt guild offered. If you don't know to first rub off the hard coating on each stick before using, it would be very frustrating. But after you do that, it works beautifully. I started with a simple stencil and made a lovely quilt block.
