Bad product and too small

Low cost and product. The sticks are small compared to their non-recent version. They are also very soft and oily.

Pros
  • Alright!
Cons
  • Some errors

Great product for kids

I used these for a simple pastel art project in 2nd grade where I teach art. They worked well with small hands and had excellent pigment. The price was right.

Pros
  • Regular Price
Cons
  • Too Long to Wait

A little different... but it works!

These are great oil pastels! Was a bit surprised though as they are a bit small. They worked great! All in all they did a great job! They are also easy to use!

Pros
  • Complete set
Cons
  • I'm mad

The key phrase in the description "Young Artist " is .

The key phrase in the description 'Young Artist' is a reduced (in length) regular length version of Cray-Pas. They are used to refill worn black parts from standard packages.

Pros
  • Expensive but decent
Cons
  • Sad packaging

Great package! for drawings

I was looking for an all black pastel pack and was pleasantly surprised by this product! I wasn't aware of this brand and was concerned the pastels might be too hard (like some of the cheap ones) but they are very waxy and just what I was looking for! I will definitely order again.

Pros
  • drawing
Cons
  • it was possible to choose a newer model

Not as advertised but not bad

They are advertised as children's oil pastels, which they are. But the dimensions of the box are actually 2.5" x 2.25" x 0.75. NOT 2.9 inches which is the standard (adult) size for pastels. But the quality is good (not too soft and sticky) and the price is CHEAP. The sticks are quite small. I'm a professional artist going through LOTS of black oil pastels. I prefer Van Gogh oil pastels at $1.79 a stick, but my supplier had failed. They are just as good but tiny and not the advertised size.

Pros
  • Art Supplies
Cons
  • Available in Black only

Great price for classroom use, will turn your fingers black

I am a K-12 art teacher. I use this oil pastel in many of my junior classes. They create clean lines with little effort from students, making them ideal for first graders and first graders. I usually take the packaging off and break it into 4 pieces so they last longer. Oil pastels will tear themselves or the packaging will get in the way if I give them whole to my students. The black is saturated and the heat from the hands causes the pastel to spill onto the fingers etc. So be aware that they

Pros
  • Arts, painting and craft supplies
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
