Here's a beginner tutorial on how to blend oil pastels like a pro. In this video I give you my best tips and techniques to blend like a pro and make smooth color gradients when painting / drawing with oil pastels.

There are 3 blending techniques. By friction, using your fingers, a rag, a cloth or a tortillon also called blending stump. By using oil paint solvents and mediums like Gamsol, paint thinners, walnut oil or linseed oil. And the Pastel on pastel technique using a light shade on top of a dark shade and mixing them together.

To demo the blending techniques I sketched 3 easy landscapes. Hope you like this oil pastel tutorial! If you decide to try oil pastels, please show me your artwork by tagging me on Instagram. I’m sending you good vibes, stay inspired! –XO
