R&F HANDMADE PAINTS, OIL PIGMENT STICKS
R&F HANDMADE ENCAUSTIC PAINTS ARE PERHAPS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND VERSATILE OF ALL PAINTS!
R&F Pigment Sticks are handmade in small batches, carefully milled and moulded. Only basic traditional materials, such as natural wax, linseed oil, and pigment, are used with absolute purity. Pigment Sticks are the only brand of oil sticks that employ only natural waxes (beeswax and plant wax). This allows for a minimum amount of wax. This results in a softer consistency and greater paint film strength. R&F Pigment Sticks let you eliminate the distancing factor of a brush and hold the paint right in your hand. The surface, paint, colour and ideas all come together. The different effects you can get with these luscious sticks will amaze you.
R&F Pigment Sticks are oil paint in stick form. Pigment Sticks allow the painter to draw or paint directly onto a surface without brushes, palettes, paint tubes, or solvents. They use only the basic traditional materials: natural wax (beeswax and plant wax), linseed oil, and pigment. The result is an oil stick with a soft lipstick consistency.
Pigment Sticks have no additives, extenders, substitutes or facilitators commonly used in industrial production. While using these adulterations can save time and reduce cost, they lower the quality of the paint. Consequently, their formulas are complex, and manufacturing is labour-intensive.
All paints are handmade in small batches, carefully milled and moulded. R&F Pigment Sticks are available in over 100 beautiful colours; see each colour for a description of the unique colour.
R&F Pigment Sticks are proudly made by hand in the USA and come in three sizes: 38 ml and 100 ml and 3 colours in 188 ml. They contain 104 colours.
