Product 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.

So easy to use
This was the first time I’ve used Shiva sticks after seeing all of the online tutorials. I thought it was defective when I got it because it felt sort of dry and wouldn’t make a mark on anything! I read the package twice and ...no instructions. Just so you know, you have to use a razor to sort of shave off the outer coating and then it’s ready to use. I found it super easy to blend in to the details in a furniture piece I was working on and it looks great! Maybe the manufacturer should know that not everyone knows how to use it...a few directions would be great!

I used the copper color to highlight my chalk painted cabinet. I love the way it turned out. These paint sticks are foolproof. The paint was easy to apply. You can make it subtle, like I did, or more dramatic. Love the flexibility.

Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2021
I don’t know where these have been all my like. I sprayed my metal patio furniture matte black and used the copper on corners and edges and anywhere it may have “naturally” worn to give the pieces an oil rubbed bronze effect. I absolutely adore them. Beyond easy to use and they store perfectly.
