Use the blending sticks with coloured sticks; they increase transparency, add body, and extend and blend the oil paint. They are available with or without a cobalt siccative, speeding up the drying time of any oil paint or paint stick. The blending medium with the added drier will affect the colour of any oil paint or oil bar used, so it is advisable to apply the medium to the painting support, followed by the colour.

R&F Pigment Sticks are essentially oil paint in a convenient drawing stick form. They allow artists to draw directly onto a surface without the interference of brushes, paint tubes, or solvents. Pigment Sticks can be thinned and manipulated with solvents, brushes, and palette knives and layered with traditional oil paints and mediums. Blending Sticks and Blending Medium can increase transparency and blend colours in the painting. Use Pigment Sticks on any support designed for oil or encaustic painting.
